Fixed another front door problem
I discovered it wasn't just the tight door lock that made closing the door difficult but the hinged stay at the top of the door was also causing a problem. If you look at the photo you can see a chunk taken out of the door where the hinge pin was hitting it as you closed the door. There isn't enough space to support the pin so I took a 6" plastic putty knife, cut it to size and then attached it to the door using double side mounting tape. It is about 1/8" high and stops the stay sagging as the door closes and prevents the pin from hitting the door.
