If it has stopped raining & it's safe to do so....try a hair dryer.

because he forgot the obvious before he posted the question.
However, I give him the benefit of the doubt given he lives in Texas, the obvious for us northerners is not so obvious for people that do not see below freezing temps on a regular basis.

yeah that was an "im stupid". no offense was meant to you. LOL.

and stevie, i am from Anchorage, Alaska, lived theremost of my life, but i never really had the problem with the frozen doors, probably becauseit either rained or snowed, it really didnt do both at the same time.

ill never forget the time it got down to -102F (-70 ambient, -102 w/ windchill)...nobody went ANYWHERE.
up there my car was always parked in the garage...

thanks for the help!
