Latch assy may need a little light lubrication on the edges (top/bottom, sides), adding lubrication to the gliding surface of the latch is pretty much futile as it will just wear off or end up on your hands and clothes over time and the issue just comes back until you relubricate.

Sometimes overtightening the stabilizers can temporarily tweek the trailer frame enough to cause the doors to stick or be difficult to open or close.
