I lubricate mine with Tri-Flow. If you don't lubricate it, it can get stiff enough to bend the frame. It will still have sufficient resistance to wind unless it is really blowing hard. In that case, you may wish to shut the door anyway.

The main entrance door hinge is high resistant, which keeps the door from swinging wildly in high winds, but recently, the hinge is becoming very loud when I use the door.  I am concerned that if I put a lubricant on the hinge, it will stop the squeaky door, but the door will lose its resistant and could cause damage to the RV in high winds.  Any thoughts or ideas on how to silence the squeaky door without losing the needed resistance?
