I've seen plenty of doors freeze shut on the first real cold morning due to moisture on the weatherstripping. Try it later in the afternoon. Coating the rubber with spray silicane will prevent that from happening in the future.

the only other problem may be with the linkage to the door latch. soem of thoes pieces are...*shudder* plastic. they can become brittle and just snap especially durning first freez. happened to me.
