Stoner Door Dragging Issues

Restoring a Stoner 180 and looking for tips and suggestions on how best to prevent the Stoner door from dragging. It’s a pretty good fit all the way around but the lower corner drags on the base cabinet when closing. Looking to correct before getting painted. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is problematic for many Stoner cabinet doors and there is actually a stainless scuff plate just inside on the lower left side, many times it's painted over.
I recommend applying force upward along the outside edge while maintaining the cabinet does not lift up. After applying this technique, ensure everything still lines up and closes properly. Additionally, we'll grind the bottom edge slightly to create the clearance necessary, but always apply the first technique and be sure everything closes properly before removing the hinge pin if you do!
