This is a side by side freezer/refrigerator. The freezer door pops open when the refrigerator door is closed. The door only opens a little but it is enough to begin defrosting the freezer. If I push on the freezer door after I close the fridge door, it will seal and remain sealed until someone shuts the fridge again. With three kids, someone is always opening the fridge. Thanks for the help.
