A while back I heard something "click" while I was opening
the door. Now the handle is no longer "springy". The door
closes ok, but I have to slam it more than the other doors
to close it. Is this easily fixed?

Do you mean the outside handle kind of flops around, like the return spring
broke?

That's correct. It doesn't quite "flop around" but nevertheless
not as tight as the other handles.
