Find the parts that are warn out and replace them. The usual
part is the hindges or in some cares just the hindge pin. Another
(strap hanger) way to fix it, is to open the door about 4 inches
use a jack under the door lock edge and bend the hindge in the
upward direction. This is what most cheap bodyman would do.
