Norcold freezer door

[Keysandstops]

If you have one of these, you've experienced the freezer door that is very hard to open two times consecutively unless you wait about five minutes. Anyone have ideas about to fix this problem?

Richard - I can't say with certainty, but my sense is that when closing the refer door, much of the air inside is pushed out creating a bit of negative pressure inside. Over that 5 minute period, the seals uncompress a bit and allow a bit of air back in.

Just my guess anyway.
