Can you clarify it a bit more? Does this problem affect both latches or just one? Does the handle(s) jam and not close? Does the "hook(s)" not catch?

That's still a bit vague... If you are talking about the latching "hook" not being tight, you can loosen an allen screw on the piece that holds the hook and screw or unscrew the hook making it tighter or looser when clamping. Be sure to tighten the allen screw afterwards.
