TwinAisle_ I remember the investigation into the freight door accidents drew out that the loaders, unable to stow the door handle, were 'putting their knee' to it to force it home to close up. You can't do this with aluminium aeroplanes. I think it fair to say if the loaders were going to travel on that aeroplane, I don't think they would have used such brute force when something is obviously jamming in the mechanism.
