Pole barn service door

The service (people) door in my pole barn won't shut because the frame is not square.

I checked out the construction and was amazed to find that the bleeping things are installed before the steel panels are put on. They're nailed to the rough opening from the outside.

I've tried to adjust the rough framing, but I can only do so much with that.

How hard is it to take out the rubber washered panel nails and peel the paneling back a bit to either adjust things or replace the whole mess?

Thanks,
hj

If the framework is not shifting, is there any reason why you can't fir it up square and install a slightly smaller door? Saves you the trouble of ripping siding off.
