A cordless drill & some suitable drill bits as the handles are held in with rivets.

I've bolted mine back on, works as long as you have a large selection of lengths and heads as some I tried didn't allow it to sit fully closed

Nope, lift the handle up & you should then spot your target for the drill Laughing

Good idea to take the door card off anyway because as you drill the rivets out metal bits fall inside the door and rattle around if you dont get rid of them. Depends how fussy you are. I bolted mine back on, does the same job and its easy to take off if they ever need to come off again.
