How often should the hinges and latch assemblies on the doors, hood, and tailgate be lubricated on 1993-2011 Ford Ranger?

At every 3000 miles or every 3 months it is advised that few drops of light oil or lock lubricant be applied to the hinges and latch assemblies on the doors, hood, and the tailgate. Moreover, the door latch strikers should be lubricated slightly in order to reduce the amount of wear and slide easily. The door locks will require spray-on graphite lubricant to be applied to them.
