Freezer Safety Notes
The Refrigerator Safety Act requires household refrigerators to have a door mechanism, usually a magnetic latch, that lets the door be opened from the inside, so older latch-door units carelessly stored or discarded where children can reach them remain a suffocation hazard.

Extreme temperatures strain a freezer's compressor, so outside mild climates it is best kept indoors, such as in a basement. Source: ENERGY STAR - Freezers
