The two metal bars should be on top of each other when the shutter is at rest (not moving). You have way too much overlap. I'd say you need to remount the closing curtain, or the tapes of the opening curtain, to get the location of each shutter correct.
 
You have the opening curtain tapes glued too far around the opening curtain rollers on the main shutter drum. These rollers need to be at the full rest (unwound) position and the leading edge of the curtain needs to be approx 1/8 inch inside the edge of the crate..

You probably also have the closing curtain glued wrong on the main shutter drum..
