Default door doesnt unlock in the winter

this is one of my few problems that i got with this car in the winter. my driver side keyhole doesnt work at all. i have to use my passenger side to unlock the doors. everytime i leave the car out for at least 2 hours and i come to unlcok the door.. i stick the key in and it dont turn at all. what would my best solution be?? i need a solution before i get real pissed and just break the key inside the keyhole.

Try spraying a small amount of WD-40 with the straw in the keyhole. You can also spary the door lock itself but make sure to wipe of the excess.

Also you can get a pocket sized deicer if the WD-40 dosen't do the trick
