It sounds like it might not be aligned properly, if you lift it up slightly as you close it, it should hopefully close.

Before slamming the door the hinge in the middle take it off. This happened to my old hdi. I had no tools with me at the time and just had to slam the door. The hinge snapped and dinted my door.

I take it you've tried opening the door handle in case the catch is shut?

Just dont keep slamming it over and over again! This was a problem on my 1.4 when i broke it after i removed the checkstraps and moved the door hinges. Doesnt sound like the same problem though!

Lol. I thought that would of been obvious in this weather
306s are a bit of a pig for this. Water must get down to the lock easily.
