I suspect you could count them on one hand, even after having lost a couple of fingers to the bandsaw!!! :-) I have an outside handle on my gullwing door and that was one of the writeup on my inspection. They wanted it labeled for "open" and "closed" for rescue purposes. It does not have an inside "lock" that needs to be undone first. I gave thought to having a closed "lock" but when my latching rods are inserted fully into the nylon locking blocks it takes a very positive force on the handle to open. So far it's not been a problem with any handle "creep" but I do keep an eye on the handle and it's in a location that is not easily "bumped". Larry Flesner
