I know this isn't remotely outdoor equipment related but I know the blokes on here are very handy so hoping you might be able to offer some advice.
I'm looking for a sturdy solution for an internal pull handle strap for my lever garage door.
Photos below.
I have one of those older fashioned garage lever doors. It pulls open to the inside. With a bit of WD40 it actually pulls quite smoothly.
It has a metal frame and its got BHP colourbond sheeting marked with 1994 but still looks good and I can't see the point of getting a new garage door so just trying to make it a bit better.
The only thing is after driving your car in to pull shut the door from the inside you have to pull on the frame and hard do get any good pulling purchase for my wife to use.
I want to put some sort of strap attached to the metal frame as marked in red below and have a fixing point as marked in purple.
What should I use for the strap and fixing ? I was thinking almost something a short picture frame wire with nice eyelets that I could then put a screw and washer through the metal frame ( ideally without putting a whole right through the colourbond) then just putting a length of garden hose over the wire to make it nice on the hand to pull.
