fix that. this trick will work on any wood surface where a screw is loose or the hole is stripped out to the point that the screw will no longer get or stay tight. your first thought may be to ditch the original screw for one that is larger so it will grab something and stay tight. don’t be that guy. no one likes that guy. you don’t need a larger screw, you need a smaller hole.
this happened to my back door this year and i finally decided to take an hour and fix it. you can see in the image below, the loose screw was on my door lock
