Today I finally got around to weighing the stock two part lid on my fridge - it is 23.6 total pounds of finger crushing terror. I learned to avoid injury quickly after a few slammed fingernails, but this thing is borderline dangerous for casual users or guests.
Is this usual or is my lid saturated with water, filled with lead or just the heaviest fridge lid in the fleet?
Unlike some I've seen in photos this is one molded piece - no screws or visible seams. I'm hesitant to drill into it without a plan and hoping someone has already solved the problem.

I haven't thought about fixing it, but mine weighs about the same. I do think the weight helps hold it against the seals, although there might be a better way with a latch. I divided my fridge into a freezer and fridge compartment and I like to be able to open either the fridge or freezer side separately.
