 Wil,
 You can readjust the latching mechanism. You will need to drive out the pin
that holds the latch in place with a drift tool or some other suitable flat
head implement. One the roll pin is out, you can push the latching mechanism
tighter to the glass. Then it is just a matter of putting the pin back in.
 Of course, reality is the operation will not be so easy for the less
mechanically inclined. Get the right tools and plenty of WD-40 or other
suitable lubricant. It will make the job that much easier.
 Best of luck.
