    Check the proper alignment, adjust if nescessary somehow door alingment moved in time. Lubricate door w/ sewing machine lubricant.

    Adjustment available in the door itself. You can loosen the hinges at the door and moved it as the hinges are bolted into slots that allow for movement. This a two or three persons job, as the door are heavy and will immediately drop to the lowest adjusment sa soon as you loosen the bolts. You will need someone to hold the door in position while you re-tighten the bolts. After that you will need to adjust the striker post on door jamb. It will be mounted to a plate with large phillips screw. You can loosen this screws and tap the striker with hammer up/down or sideways to make door latch well. You will need to do this after you align the hinges. Kaya moto!
