Petroleum Jelly to Prevent Sticking If you want to prevent a sticking door, use a thin coat of paraffin wax after cleaning your freezer door and gasket instead.

Similarly, you may ask, how do you lubricate a freezer drawer?

General purpose lubricants that are safe and approved for use in refrigerators and freezers are:

After it has been cleaned and dried, you can put a bit of WD40 on a paper towel and run along the tracks of the drawers. I've used a bit of silicone spray (also on a paper towel), too, which worked as long as the old fridge.
