How to keep smoker lid from sticking

Was wondering how everyone keeps their lids from sticking on the smoker or prevent it? Thanks in advance.

They need to be cleaned out from time to time as the carbon builds up.
Other than that, yours may have suffered a hit that has distorted the lid or body.

If a little stuck you can use your hive tool to open by leveraging it against the bellow’s.
