Warped cabinet door
I'm doing a rehab on an upper end house and one of the cabinet doors is warped to the point that it doesn't close at the top, leave about 5/16" gap at the upper, "outside" corner. The door is 23" H and 16" W.
What's the easiest way to straighten the puppy out?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Frank, you could remove the door, place a small 3/4" block under the lower right corner of the door, clamping both the upper left and lower left corners to a work bench top. Place a weight on the upper right corner, or apply a little clamp pressure to pull it down. Leave it like that for a day or so to allow the door to acclimate to the new bending.
