Glass shower doors are touching

I had a new bathroom remodel in October and after 4 weeks the stationary door "slid" down into the u-channel and the 2 doors were rubbing together. The installer came back and used an allen wrench on the door with the hinges. About 10 days later the doors were touching again. He came back and jammed an acrylic shim about 1/4 inch square into the u-channel. BUT he also put more silicone. The 2 doors are now touching again. He doesn't want to come back. Does anyone have any ideas for me. Do you think I could jam a bigger acrylic shim in the u-channel without any silicone? I think the silicone compresses from the weight of the door, and if just the shim is there maybe it would stay up? I'm sure there is enough silicone already in there to prevent leaking.
