Hi. I have attempted to fit x 6 internal doors which has been, by and large, successful however, one of the doors needs an extra little push for the last couple of cm's to seat the latch and when its opened it will spring open by the same amount. At first I thought i may not have trimmed the hinge side of the door at a perfect right angle so took it off and trimmed it again, but it's made no difference. All the hinges appear to be flush with the door liner, and the door isn't being fouled by the door stop. Any suggestions? It isn't critical but is annoying me!

Check the hinge 'flags', are not clashing, before the door is fully closed. If they are, the flags need to be set a little deeper, into the timber.
Check the door isn't binding on the door stops.
And none of the screw heads protrude from hinges .
