From adjoin + -er suffix (one who does/a tool). Follows the standard English agentive noun pattern.

Kelly Says

Most '-er' words for 'things that do something' (like 'joiner' for someone who joins wood) are older, while 'adjoiner' feels invented—showing how alive the -er suffix still is in English.
