I have this lock on my shop door...(not this exact model, but they are
pretty universal.)

For a few years, I've had the problem of it not unlocking in freezing
cold. I've tried lubricating it to no avail (I don't know if that might
have made it worst.)
The problem with fixing it is that as soon as I remove it and open it up,
it's warm enough to funciton properly. I thought about leaving it in a
freezer but I don't know if that would work.
Any ideas for soving this delima? (This lock is rated for outdoor use.)
Thanks.
