Steps to try:

Inspect bottom seal and floor: Ensure the seal is not catching on uneven floor surfaces.
Adjust close limit: Move the close limit so the door stops slightly earlier, just as it contacts the floor.
Re‑learn force: Perform a full travel and force learning cycle if supported by your Novoferm model.
