Keeping Resridential Refrigerator Doors Closed

Getting ready to start heading south for our first winter as full timers. Looking for ideas on how to ensure the fridge doors stay closed. Our fridge fits so tight I'm not sure I can get a ratchet strap around it. Hoping for more ideas.
  • Masking tape or Velcro or long magnets if the doors and the frame are both magnetic.

    As long as it's a side by side?
  • My cardinal came with residential refrigerator. It has black surgical hose with hooks at each end that attach to the wood framing on either side of the fridge. There is one for the side-by-side upper doors, and a second elastic that goes across the pull out freezer drawer on the bottom.
