Bought one of these a couple of years ago as they were supposed to be one of the few "good" makes, however the door handle recently broke. I have a replacement, but as you can see from the photo, it seems to have the same flaw as the original. The old handle is on top, you can see where I attempted to glue the missing bit back on with epoxy, it only lasted a week. You can also see the fairly stiff metal mechanism it has to move, I'm expecting failure of the new one just like the old one as it seems to be a design flaw.
I'm planning on filling the holes in the new piece with epoxy to strengthen it before it breaks, but wonder if the spring on the mechanism could be getting stiffer which could be causing the issue in the first place.
Any ideas?
thanks
