Check the door for scratches on both sides. A common mistake I have found is that the drywall installers used a too-long screw that catches the door, or the finish carpenters used a too-long nail on the baseboard. Then check for some piece of debris under the door, and last, have you hung a picture or a towel bar or some other accessory on the walls on either side of the pocket. A lot of people don't realise that you need to be careful of the wall on either side of the pocket. Not much clearance.
