Freezer door opened while traveling - residential fridge
The first time we pulled our 2020 Solitude 310GK-R with the residential fridge, I opened the RV door after driving for three hours and the bottom freezer door was open. Of course this resulted in a nice dent in the door where it contacted the cupboard door handle
The freezer door was secure before we left. My wife and I each do a double check of everything inside and out before we travel. Has anybody else experienced this? Our "solution" was to apply some double sided self-adhesive velcro tape to both sides of the freezer door.
There is a lock for the fridge doors but not the freezer. Not a great design for RV use of this fridge.Brian & Kellie

Wow Brian so sorry to hear that. I was wondering about that freezer door myself and if it could come open when towing. Since I'm new to having a residential fridge I will figure out some way to prevent it from coming open. Thank you for the heads up and so sorry it happened to your new trailer.

I must have had too much ice cream in it :-)

Ours did that once. Now we wedge a large diameter piece of swim-noodle type stuff between the freezer door and a cabinet. I think it was meant to be some kind of exercise noodle but we cut it to length. It is about 8" in diameter.
