I don't now what the correct terminology for the lock parts are - but here goes anyway... :) Our front door lock needs adjusting (somehow). Have to pull it closed pertty hard as the lock plunger does not get pushed back in as it contacts the "fixed part" on the door upright. The plunger itself is not stiff and can be easily pushed in all the way by hand. So I guess the gap may be the problem? (As in pic) If so what should the gap actually be?
