I used a black grease that would show up easily on the white paint where ever the seal was touching. This made it easy to see what areas were contacting and which areas were not.
Maybe this helps.
a couple shots of the barn door hinges:

Looks like I can shift the doors up a bit, and possibly tilt the top side in.

I'll use your tip with the black grease to see if that can solve my problem.
