Door Stuck On Opening
When the door handle is pulled, the latch should help "kick" the door outward, just based on where the center of the strike post is. I'm wondering if the rotating latch has a release spring that is maybe worn and not as strong as it used to be. You can see in the pics below what I mean. Door closed, latch is wrapped around the post. Door open, latch is pushed out away from post.
