Hey Rachel,

Sounds like a fun problem especially with the door closed. I'm going on the idea that the door is just frozen up on the inside. I guess the first step would be to lift up the outside door handle and spray some freeing fluid (PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench) in there. Try some in the keyhole as well. Let it soak for a bit and try it then. If that doesn't work, try a hairdryer on the area around the keyhole and the door handle, or get it inside to a warm place. If that gets it open, take off the inside door panel and grease everything.

Happy Bricking!!!
