Most recent trip I noticed frost build up starting at the edge of the freezer compartment door. Just reading that this is also a concern for the cooling fins...

What is the better way to keep the frost buildup level down or is it a personal preference? :@
Thx

Could be that the door that is causing the frost build up is not the outside fridge door but possibly the inside freezer compartment door that is not sealing completely. Once I fixed my freezer compartment door and made sure it closed completely my frost build up disappeared.

How did you repair the door?
The freezer compartment gasket is good; the door has a spring-loaded piano hinge that I’d prefer being a bit stronger for a tighter close. Not clear on how to tighten that up or if it’s even possible.

My freezer door does not have a piano hinge, but is spring-loaded on either side. It would have been very difficult to remove the freezer door so I attempted to improve the spring return by shooting some WD-40 into the two pivot points and it worked.
