Default Door Freezing?

Share your tips on keep your door from freezing over winter? For example key hole and the weather strip around the doors. I’m thinking wd40 will do the trick for the key hole but what about the rubber strip that’s around the door?

A can of silicone would do the trick.

LOL.
wipe out your door jambs to get all the moisture out when your done driving for the day. I do that and it seems to work and keeps the door jambs clean.

WD-40 will work on the lock and on the rubber seals.

Vaseline is what I use, good up to (or should I say down to) -10 or so.

Oil the key with a light oil, preferably silicone lube so it doesn't leak down onto the window, and stick it in there.
