Additional observations
The side edge of the inner
door (on the handle side of
the door) appears to make
contact with the unit's side
trim.
Very little force is required
to pull open the door.
When closing the door onto
the striker, the door lifts
itself upward.
You will feel a slight bump
as the roller (internal to the
door) hits the tip of the
striker and lifts the door.
If the door needs to lift
substantially, the door will
no longer pull itself closed,
and assistance is required
to push it closed fully.
While trying to open the
door from a closed position,

catches the door and may
prevent it from opening.
