Default Door gap

Gonna quickly explain this lol and this is my last spam post. So my drivers door has a huge gap and looking at the door compared to the passenger side it is way out. Mostly from prying it apart when the keys got locked inside. As a quick and dirty way can i just close the door on a piece of wood and just bend the top of the door frame just so it contacts and squishes the door seal?

be careful and make sure the window is rolled down!
My old man worked at a Chrysler Dealer during the 80s and 90s, he told me last year they had to put their knee on the upper part of the interior door and flex the top to make them shut right. He also told me of one time he accidently pulled too hard and folded the top of the door over.
