I found on my 56 the door had to hit the bottom strike plate. just grazing it.
if the door latch was dead center and not nicking the bottom box of strike plate it would not latch.
I pulled the plate all the way out so I could see how much up and down i needed. once i got the door latching with the plate all the way out and the correct up and down. I moved the plate in slowly till i found the good spot where the doors where flush and could close with rubber moldings in place.
