Because of the new glass, may need toe and heeling method, open the door and check if the lock is working first in the open position
 
hi masona, when i said it works fine i should have said it works when the door is open but same problem when the door is shut, cheers mick

Without seeing it, it's difficult but it's most likely because of the new glass the door could be slightly out of shape, is it catching or rubbing anywhere, might need toe and heeling method so you could ask the glazier to have a look for you again to make sure it's not the glass they have fitted, if it is then wouldn't take them long to do it
