do you mean the actual handle part fell off or the locking machanism fell. because for me, it's the lock that fell into the bottom of the door. i dont know if someone was trying to hack into it and didn't suceed or what. since i rarely use the key to open doors, i just noticed that one day when i happened to feel like using a key.

yeah, it happened to me. it really isnt that hard to change it out with a new one. Once you open the door pannel youll be able to figure it out, thats what i had to do.

DSMs are notorious for breaking door handles. I have steel inserts in mine, they can hold the weight of two concrete bags.
