The latch is not straight.
The latch must be straight from the edge of the door to the back of the 2 1/8” hole. If the latch is slanted because the 2 1/8” hole is slightly too large, then loosen the mounting screws, lift the entire lock assembly so the latch is level, and then re-tighten the mounting screws securely.
