## Discrepancy

IAH - DURING A-CHECK INSPECTION THE RIGHT HAND OVERWING EMERGENCY EXIT DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN.  THE METAL TRIM AT THE TOP OF THE DOOR WAS FOUND TO BE CATCHING ON THE OPENING.  MAINTENANCE RECONTOURED/TRIMMED THE AFFECTED MATERIAL, OPERATIONALLY CHECKED THE EXIT WITH NO DEFECTS, AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS APPROVED FOR RETURN TO SERVICE.
