Not sure if it was out of adjustment when we did the PDI or if it happened shortly thereafter, but I always felt that the shower door was pretty hard to open. I always thought that was good, figuring the door would never open while underway.
Well, I was wrong. Last weekend, Nancy was giving a tour of the trailer to some friends and when she opened the shower door, it was really floppy at the top.
I looked at it a few minutes to figure out how the hinge mechanism worked and found that the top hinge pin was no longer in the pin hole of the door.
I was able to adjust it. If your Landmark shower door seems like it opens really hard, almost drags, you may want to look for this.
Here's my procedure (assumes top hinge pin is out of pin hole):
If your door is still too high for the hinge pin to slide in, you may need to raise the top track of the door frame. I did have to do this. I removed a single screw on the inside of the upper-right corner of the door frame.
My door now works incredibly smoothly now. Hope it stays that way.
I have attached a few pictures to make more sense of my steps.

Here's my procedure (assumes top hinge pin is out of pin hole):
- Lift door up and off lower hinge pin - set door aside
- Loosen top hinge pin set-screw, push hinge pin up as high as it will go and tighten set-screw
- Place door back into frame, placing bottom hinge pin into bottom hinge pin hole
- Standing in the shower, looking down at the top of the door, guide the door so that the top hinge pin and hole are aligned
- Loosen set-screw and allow hinge pin to fall. Tighten set screw tightly.
