Locks are frozen

Try a hairdryer to thaw them out and make sure the door handle button isn't stuck in, as this can cause the fault you describe

Great .... yes the frosting up thing is a pain.
I park mine really close to the hedge, it's a pain to get in and out of but it doesn't freeze up on that side. I used to shut an old sheet in the passenger door, across the windscreen and into the drivers door, that works too.

very thin smear of vaseline on the door rubbers ( use a cloth ) will stop the doors sticking in subzero temps
