What some folk don't realise is that the carrier hole is threaded too and so you need to "set" the distance between the two parts before winding in the retaining screw; once they are both engaged in the threads no amount of tightening will alter the distance between them. That's why the lock carrier ends up not sitting flush.

Mr.Wpoll long time no speak, and a late happy nu year, ok being pedantinc as usual but the steps you mention here do i need to rip the inner door cards off?
Or can i just remove the black plug on the innerside of the door to get to the allen key bolt and adjust that?....got a 1-2 mm gap on the part of the trim that fits over the door lock after having the door carrier replaced...
