A senior guy told me my door gap check was too quick to pass

He said 'You're missing the sway, measure it with the car at the top floor too.' Now I always check both spots. Anyone else have a simple step they used to skip?

Yeah the "measure it at the top" thing is key. I used to skip checking the hinge side for binding until a door nearly fell on me.

That "door nearly fell on me" part is why I always check the bottom hinge too.

Did you ever forget to check the top floor thing and then get yelled at later? I learned that one the hard way too. Now I always hit both spots before I call it good.
