As mentioned above, the upper guide arm plays a big roll in how that door opens/closes. At one time we had people use that guide as a handhold and we were always having to tweak the doors to shut good.
135 door is similar but I think the 145 door is about ~ 180 mm longer with 2 handles on the inside?
