Verified Reviews for Smart Automatic Chicken Coop Door

We bought our first AutoDoor in November of last year as we had just adopted** Thor, a Frizzy cockerel and, initially needed to keep him separate from the three girls. I looked at the different sorts of door available and the only type that would fit was a side opening system... there is only one.... Omlet AutoDoor!! Door bought and fitted and has been working happily... the old coop is an isolation unit as Athena, one of the three girls, is a pecker! Sometimes it is necessary to keep someone away from her... currently Venus [our rescue chicken that was almost bald on arrival] We bought a second door last week to replace an existing door that had suddenly failed. When installed, I couldn't get it to recallibrate and the door just kept opening and closing [it worked perfectly on instalation, then I noticed that the Duracell batteries weren't good [despite having just been bought last November for the other door as a set of eight.... hmmmm?] so I changed them and that's when the door lost its senses. Went to "Chat" to discover that there wouldn't be anyone in until this Monday... OK, it was working on Manual in a certain fashion... could live with that. Checked my emails before going to bed and a customer services response was there... nice... I replied and on Sunday morning... please note... on a Sunday... there was a response with all the various steps I probably needed to take... followed them and the door recallibrated immediately and has been operating fine ever since! So, by the time I would have recontacted the "Chat" line.... the door was up and running!! Now that is what I call service. Thanks folks... happy chickens, happy me!! ** Thor crows... Thor crows a lot... Thor's crow is very high pitched..... the previous owner lived in a town.... Thor's crow can shatter windows! And probably tempers.... however, we are 500 metres from the nearest habitation [and two of them have cockerels, anyway.]

I wish I had bought this automatic door sooner! It was the best decision! We have a wooden coop and the way it connects to the run we had to install this door on the inside rather than the outside so we had to add a few boards to connect it properly. But it works perfect! I have it set to open based on the time. It was easy to program. I thought my chickens might be hesitant to go thru it since they don't like new things but they didn't hesitate at all. Best purchase ever!

Initially I figured, I'm always up early enough to let the chickens out of the coop, it'll be fine. A friend and experienced chicken owner urged me to get an auto-door, so I purchased this one. It's been wonderful! It was relatively easy to set up, is straightforward to use, and it's worked consistently for the last two months. Ours is on our Eglu Cube itself and opens into the fenced-in run. The girls love it.

I absolutely love my door,no more going out on frosty mornings to let the girls out it’s just perfect

Have looked at doors for awhile, and chose this one--best features and price. It is an EXCELLENT addition to letting the hens keep a schedule, when ours is not consistent!! Has worked perfectly for three months so far. Glad I watched the installation video before even attempting to install--instruction book is good once you get it figured out! Programming was a bit confusing. I made an extra copy of the programming instructions, encased it in plastic, and keep it in the feed shed! We were replacing the coop, and ordered the door early, yet had no delays in receiving it (March of 2022). Have recommended to others, would buy again.

We purchased this 8 months ago, during the winter. I thought it was pricey, but justified it because we were going on a trip, and my ladies needed to be secured. It changed our lives. No longer have to worry about letting the girls out or putting them away for the night. Secure, dependable, and only have changed the batteries once.

works very well. the quality of the door is durable. It was fairly easy to assemble and install.

Wow, did this product make a difference for our chickens. We all felt a sigh of relief after putting it on our existing coop. Hubby had no trouble with installation. Girls look forward to it at night when they go to roost. Bless you all for this very helpful product.

I bought this product after having had a fox attack, very easy to install and has worked brilliantly ever since. my ladies are all tucked up nice and safe before I get home from work.

Fits perfect, and never fails to open and close when it should. PROS Many settings for open/close, I've tried both manual and light control and both work perfectly Additional light is bright and does not consume much battery. This was a welcome addition to my coop! Installation instructions were clear and I received all the parts for any type of install required. Materials were also sturdy and not cheap. CONS Battery replacement is going to be a bit cumbersome due to needing to take the controller completely apart to swap it out
