this is the other side, which is attached

the handles on all my doors are attached with wood screws into the doors themselves, rather than the opposite handle - the square bar is the only bit that runs through the entirety of the opening and physically connects the two together. The issue I have is there’s not enough wood left in the door to attach the wood screws to the door.. it’s as though whoever installed this has drilled too big a hole through the door

I’ve uploaded a picture that should show the issue
