Lock Button Repair Button Button goes in too far

I just purchased a new housing for the phone. I was reassembling it and found that there seems to be too much space between the lock button and the actual foil switch. I replaced the headphone jack as well. so that part is new. My friend gave me the phone and when I got the phone apart the flex cable was severed. Its not impossible that the bezel is bent, but I did try to bend it a bit to bring the flex cable closer to the external switch but it seemed not to have helped. What can i be doing wrong?
