battery compartment door repair

[Skipster]

battery hatch door came open a few times.  I machined a longer lock mechanism and sort of fixed the problem.  but the real problem is the where the door attaches to the bottom of the shell.  so the door is comng  loose and has dropped half an inch. thats why I had to lengthen the  latch.   the whole door needs to be reattached. any tips out there?
