[QUOTE="Manxfella, post: 519694, member: 20515"] After removing my sliding door during my restoration, I've now come to refitting it. I've got the door to sit perfectly in the hole with a nice panel gap all round which is even and the door pulls tight on the handle. My problem is that when I fit the outer cover over the sliding rail, the door mechanism catches on the cover. I've drilled wider holes on the catch bolted to the body to try & slide it forward slightly and I've moved the rear catch as far back as it'll go, but it still catches. What am I doing wrong? When I close the door, it looks like it needs about another 2-3mm clearance. It worked perfectly before I removed it & I've not replaced any parts. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
