Mind, there are numerous reasons this would not work at the parameters given

Like the lead lining melting at the physical temperatures present at the ground-zero of a late 1950's nuclear weapon (H bomb), or the blast wave impact, etc.

Would the door bearing hold out though?

Depends on distance from the blast, type of building, etc. Some stuff was vaporized.

Peter Watkins did such a fine job of Culloden, the BBC hired him to make a film about the effects on Britain of nuclear war. The War Game makes Threads look like a Disney movie.

That's the one. It's a few K's from here.
That one is a bit further away, so I didn't apply there on the basis it means a longer commute and I'm lazy...
Maybe. I doubt they'll bother though: It's mainly so I can show the Job Centre I tried every option.

That's German engineering at it's best .The hinge is a stamped piece of steel but it mates with a piddling nylon (?) insert in the door. The nylon insert gets ground away on the lower hinge over time. The door sinks...….and pops out of the top hinge.
It's a crap piece of design by Bosch.
The door is currently being held in place by a chair loaded with four bricks.

We used our Bosch dishwasher for the first time last night, I only installed it 2 years ago.

This made me think: Bosch are local to me. They're also a non-profit and may have places for social workers.
So I looked it up, and lo and behold there's a whole Bosch foundation to help young people with difficult backgrounds, refugees et c. Somewhere else to apply, thanks @slowmotion.
If I get a job I'll make sure to tell them about the fridge...

Our 40yr old Hitachi Fridge/Freezer is still going strong, not only that but it has never needed de-frosting.

If I was going to lock myself in a fridge, I would be quite keen on having a door that fell off.

It's best not to rush these things .
