Why is my dishwasher making a clacking sound when I open it?

I helped my sister take apart her kitchen yesterday, and now her dishwasher is making a weird clacking noise when we open the door. I found a video online that illustrates the issue, and I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on how to fix it. Thanks a ton for your help! Here's the link to the video: https://youtu.be/yqwX5cZUmuA?feature=shared

Thanks for the suggestion! I figured it out: the wooden plate at the front was screwed in too tightly, which caused the metal front to bend. That was what made the clacking noise. I've fixed it, and now it works perfectly again!

It sounds like the door trim might be getting caught on the baseboard when you open it. It could be worth checking underneath to see if that's the case.
