I think I told you to bend the Z hinge to hold it away from the jamb on the hinge side. You or others usually the ladies hang onto the screen door for safety and it usually makes the screen door hit the bottom of the aluminum threshold. I just did ours last week by pulling under the lower hinge with my fingers.

Purchase two of these, and install one above the sliding latch door & the other just below. They work GREAT! They will assist some folks who have trouble going in and out. This last summer I installed several of these setups on rigs. Best bet take your time measure, calculate & measure(use pencil for making marks) again then drill your pilot hole(slightly smaller than the screws that it comes with)its soft metal and will expand torquing the screws in making them stiff. The cross support of two of these keep that continuous pushing down on the opening latch from un-square-ing the door. Us the first install(bar) as a template to the second one you put on the door. Its an easy project with Great results.
Blessings,
Sometimes dragging is function of your set up. When I level up sometimes and the frame gets a little cock-eyed and the door will drag.
The turnbuckle/rod solved that problem.
