I sprayed the "man door" with cooking spray. An old Canola spray I have around. It was 17 degrees last night and no issues. It was not particularly wet though.
My only concern with your door is that you get the proper coverage with the oil. IMO you would need to be sure it gets total coverage in the track to keep the condensation from sticking.
Thank you! and good luck!
Since I can't really see the door, I assume it's external? Putting the pop door internally (which isn't always possible, depending on style of door) could help.
It's actually on the inside of that run - but the condensation, I would imagine, has no concept of internal or external when it comes to where it resides - but I sincerely appreciate your thoughts.
Oh, now I see it on the left!Wait, is the auto door you're having issues with for the run and not the coop? I can't tell with the tiny avatar photo.
I meant internal to the coop. My door was meant to be mounted externally but I asked the shed guy to put it inside. It partially froze in tracks once, but just barely (where a jiggle was enough to loosen it).

Needs shelter....not sure any oiling will keep it thawed.
Sorry, rosemarythyme - I didn't do a good job describing where the pop door was (most pop doors are to the coop, of course). Yes, this is a second pop door that leads to an extended run, and it's one I made myself - a manual one that I open and shut by pulling/releasing a rope.
