My front door has been catching at the bottom (scraping against the metal frame plate) for the last couple of months. Its resulted in the door not closing flush at the bottom - so the seal isnt doing its job of keeping cold air out at the bottom.

Is there any way of sorting this out?

Looking at the second pic the flag hinge should have a hole to the right looking from the right, in there is a allen key screw which moves the door back and forward on the flag.

Move door in towards the frame at the top and out away at the bottom, if that does solve it you might have to re 'toe and heel' the door leaf.

Thanks for that brickie - will try that out when I get home.
