Default uPVC French Doors - stripped screw holes

Doing a routine clean and lube on my french doors and found the bottom
locking mechanism strip a little loose. Tried to tighten the screws and a
couple turned without gripping.

Any ideas on how to close up the hole to give the screws another chance or
am I looking and drilling some fresh holes in the locking bar?
