A method for aligning a first door and a second door includes steps of: (1) moving the first door and the second door from an opened position toward a closed position; (2) engaging a striker arm with a cam of a follower mechanism; (3) aligning a first mating edge and a second mating edge by moving the cam along a second follower surface of the striker arm; (4) separating the first mating edge from the second mating edge by engaging the cam to an apex of the striker arm; (5) aligning the first mating edge and the second mating edge by moving the cam along a first follower surface of the striker arm; (6) maintaining alignment of the first mating edge and the second mating edge by engaging a convex first rail coupled with a concave second rail; and (7) disengaging the cam from the first follower surface.
