If that is the handle you use to close the door, then it probably isn't going to hold over the long run.

I don't know if there is anything substantial to screw into the handle, but I would take the panel off and put screws in from the backside where it won't be seen.

I was thinking of doing that but honestly i don't think it can be done that way. Right now is holding very well lets see. but if for any reason it came loose again i will take the panel off and try to screw it.
