This is the original sentence I found the word in:
Apenas tembló cuando se cerró la puertezuela de un coche en la calle de al lado, ni cuando dos lechuzas volaron sobre su cabeza.

The suffix -zuela tends to be used for denigrating someone or somebody.
In this case the utterance is implying the door is clapped-out.

Where does that leave Venezuela? I thought it referred to Venice. :) - ian-hill, Nov 2, 2016
