My (lack of better word) door latch striker sticks out to far. Catches clothes sometimes, etc.
Afraid of pounding it in with rubber hammer. Take it off and bend it with pliers? What would you do?
This part is what sticks out to far

Thanks for all the replies. All good ideas. Thank you.
Catching clothes, long sleeve seem to find the lip.
Being they are only couple bucks each, going to take off and
1. Bend by something while in a vice, so only lip bends over. OR
2. Grind off lip OR
3. Find the RV model that's smaller.
Thanks again

For any alterations I would remover the striker plate and clamp it in a bench vice. I had to alter mine a little for a different reason.
