I'm not sure how to do this nor how to reduce the upper door-trailer gap at the top right of the door. If anyone can give me some tips I'd appreciate it! Thanks.

You can change the hinge pin, if you wish.
Or, drill out the rivets that hold the door to the hinge.
Enlarge those holes, in the door, only.
Reorient the door so that it fits like it should.
Drill out the hinge to door holes to accept 1/4 inch bolts.
Install the bolts, but make sude that they are no too long.
You may have to replace the gasket.
The door now should fit evenly within the door jamb.
