Uhh, if your basement frequently gets below 0 °C, you have far bigger problems than the freezer. This should normally not happen unless you're living somewhere in the Arctic.

I have a dedicated garage with basement that is detached from home. I still have to see what temp there is in winter.

Unless you're in deep Canada, any basement should always be deep enough stay above the frost line: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost_line
