You could try slipping a butter knife, maybe a credit card, between the door seal and the refrigerator along the side and slipping it down around the bottom edge. Might just be the rubber seal stuck to the metal.

Once you get it opened I would make sure that you prop it open a little when it's going to be in storage.

The credit card trick worked! Thank you!
Something sticky had it stuck, so did a good cleaning and all is well!
