Further to my previous answer:- Pvc-u. doors are not normally air-tight, as you put it, until the handle is lifted, ready to be locked, if you adjust the keeps or lock without checking this first your lock may be put under unnecessary strain and fail.

There are many adjustments depending on what locking system it is? Hook locks? Roller cams? Mushrooms? etc. There are normally adjustments on the keeps themselves and adjustments on the lock which may require an allen key or large slotted screwdriver.
