Find the contact point
Close the door slowly and note whether it rubs at the top, latch side, or bottom. Look for fresh scuff marks and an uneven gap around the door. If the problem followed rain or a leak, inspect for swollen material and moisture before trimming anything.
Check visible hardware
Loose hinge screws or a misaligned strike plate can change how the door sits. If the hinges are accessible and undamaged, a careful tightening with the correct driver may help. Avoid overtightening or forcing stripped screws. Different adjustable door systems have model-specific instructions.
Watch for a frame problem
A door that changes seasonally, drags after a floor repair, or no longer seals may need adjustment. Multiple doors that shift at once, a cracked frame, or visible water damage deserves a broader inspection before planing the edge.
Make the repair fit the cause
Possible solutions range from securing a hinge and adjusting the latch to repairing swollen trim or resetting the door. Photograph the full door, hinge side, and rubbing point so we can plan the visit.
