If you can't shim the door up, shim the latch down!

I had some closet doors that weren't staying shut. I tried bending the hinges to angle the door up, but they kept sagging back down and again wouldn't catch. So instead a sketched up a shim that fits between the strike plate and the door frame. at 2mm height, it should be enough to shim a door that was originally installed correctly, but has sagged due to age. You could always stack them if you need more, but if a 4mm shim won't take up the space enough, there's probably a bigger issue with your door!
I printed it with 25% infill but that's probably overkill. Prints in 5 minutes! I suggest printing with whatever color your door frame is, but a 2mm shim shouldn't be noticeable unless you're 7 feet tall :)
