loose drawer catch

   I recently repaired one of our drawers but the post-repair standard double roller catch is too loose and the drawer opens when we go down the road, the others, not repaired by me, stay closed as usual. 
It latches, just not tight enuf. I assume I changed the relationship of the pointy thing to the double roller part it inserts into, maybe it's a very little too low(?).

What is the best way to approach/solve this problem?

Thanks for any help.

	See if you can see (use a mirror if needed) where the catch it hitting. If you moved either part, it may be misaligned or, as you wrote, too low.
