The deadbolt sticks when I lock it.

When I take this piece out, there is no sticking.

I tried using a rash to file off some of the opening, but no luck.

Does it stick with the door open? If so, try loosening the screws
through the door and moving the outside part relative to the inside and
see if movement makes it work more easily. Then tighten the screws and
hope that it remains OK.

If it is loose with the door open, lift up or bush down on the door as
you turns the lock to see which way you need to adjust the door or lock
plate to solve the problem.

With the lock plate out, it neither sticks with the door open or closed.

That's why it must be the lock plate.

I do not have a Dremel.

You can adjust the door hinges to move it up or down. A little padding
under the inside or outside of a hinge flange can make the door move up
or down. Look it up.
