Wasn’t a concern with our refrigerator in the 1960s, nor any refrigerator I’ve owned since.

There were varieties into the 60s that had latching handles, not magnetic seals. They weren’t universal, and they were mostly out of production by the 70s, I think, but our basement “backup” fridge was one into the 80s, maybe 90s. Those were the real risk.

To be fair, that’s not really a concern with modern refrigerators 😀
