Problem with flip handle on cell door

Hello,

I am trying to make a door element for a revoling door, with a regular cell as the underlying 3d part. When I try to place it, the flip handle is so far away from the element that I get a "Solids Working Area Information" warning every time I open the file. It also makes the file a lot slower. The cell itself doesn't seem to be the problem, because when I drop the application element to a regular cell all the warnings and slowness stops.
On what is the distance of the flip handle to the door based? Can I change this?

I am using OBD 10.09.02.36.

With kind regards, and thanks in advance.
