    Damn I hate when that chit happens.

    Not sure how to solve that problem man. I'm sure some of these guys from colder regions may be able to help. Good luck.

    Like it's getting too much moisture in the handle mechanism or something. Maybe some graphite spray or lubricant may help??? Worth a try, and if anything your handles will be lubed.

    In my own imaginary world, where. Respect for wome
    That Prestone De Icer stuff works wonders. I would carry a spray w/ me cuz it would always freeze up. works great on the lock and around the door itself.
