Looks to me like you would need to pull the entire door and make sure it is OK, then install shimming it properly. Of course if it is a bad door you would reinstall and tell them you'll bring it in when they have the new one in stock and can install while you wait. Yes, I know they want to be in charge.

I believe you could put a very small peace of wood at the top of the door an close the door very easy a little at a time. I would not push to hard each time an I believe it may adjust it ... Or as lynnmor suggested call dealer tell them you need a new screen door an when it comes in you will bring the trailer in for them to install while you wait ... I know that LCI did adjust a screen door at the Kz Rally but I have no idea how they did it Safe Travels Chuck & Hildi in Western Montana headed for the barn

I think most screen doors are adjusted by bending the hinge brackets?

Yes, the screen doors are adjusted by bending the hinges. A small block of wood behind the hinge or between the door and frame can move things around. The key is watching carefully how things are moving and taking your time.
