Take this with a grain of salt.....

 

2 things.

If that's the only crap he produced, maybe forget it and change the door/closet yourself and then sit there hoping that was the only thing he screwed up.

 

To me it shows a disregard for your job, his reputation and your comfort.  

 

I'm going to assume this is a closet that was framed with walls rather than a pantry type cabinet that was set.

If that's true, him assuming it was standard depth, when the print clearly shows dimensions and location of walls, or at the least shows a wall that the door on the print will clear, is wrong.  You don't build wrong. 

The obvious other question would be, was this noticed b/4 drywall?

 

Some where in there is the two things.

A Great Place for Information, Comraderie, and a Sucker Punch.
