Default Frozen Doors?

For the car they make this stuff you can spray into your lock. My
latch mechanism also froze up, this is the thing that you see on
the "edge" of the door when you open it. I hit that with WD40 and
it's fine now.


How does that help when the weatherstripping is frozen to the door?


Doors freeeze when moisture on both weatherstripping and door-frame
turn to ice. Oil repels moisture, thus reduces the amount of moisture
available to freeze doors shut. Food oils e.g. Pam work just as well.


Also a good product for that use.
