How old is your building, and does your handle lock? I would look at getting that replaced, regardless of your awnsers.

Not that old for the area. I’m not too worried about it, as I mentioned in another comment, easy to just remove the handle if this ever happened. There isn’t really any kind of emergency that could happen here where an extra 30 seconds to remove a door handle would be life or death. If it’s that bad, death would be certain.

A fire? Do you walk around with a screwdriver ready to go? It takes 30 seconds to take the handle off in normal conditions, how long will it take you when you are blinding by and choking on smoke?

That’s why I keep my fire drill handy
