The door to my bedroom won’t stay closed, because the latch of the door know won’t line up to insert into the strike plates hole. About a 0.25” miss aligned. Normally I would just move the strike plate, but the door frame is made of metal and doesn’t seem to have a wood backing.

i have removed the strike plate and it seems the holes were built into the door frame and not added afterwards.
The door itself is hung properly, but who ever installed the door knob in this home originally seems to have misaligned the knob with the strike plate.

What solutions are there to fix this? Is there a way to change out the strike plates hole that are built into the metal frame? Am going to have to buy and hang a new door?
