The striker then can be adjusted if door is not flush,loosen torx bolts,then tap the striker firmly inwards.
Try and mark it first so you can see if,and how much it’s moved.

You will likely need a hammer to do this,as the plate holding the captive nuts that the torx bits screw into can be stuck tight.

Sorry I must have posted on the other thread as I loosened the two hex bits but there was nowhere for it to move just like the two front doors?
