Verified Reviews for Smart Automatic Chicken Coop Door

Pleased with it overall, but battery indicator says 0% when they are brand new batteries. It is quite a simple control system so if there is a next generation it would be great to have the ability to have a mix of time and manual settings as an option, and the ability to set and control it through a phone app and perhaps even a webcam option so I can see what's happened.

I live in MN and as quite skeptical, but this door works great! Even when it got down below -20f it worked every time and the batteries still show 50% and i installed it in October and now its March. The only times it didn't work was when a chicken pooped right in the path of the door and it froze causing an obstruction , also i had a duck that just sat in the opening. Even after the door tried its 3 or 4 times to close and then stays open as a safety.The duck was not harmed. Both times not the doors fault. Im very pleased with it. I would recommend for anyone with a busy schedule. Now we dont have to look for people to let them out or close them up if we're not at home.

I ordered this after finding out my infant was ill and we’d be spending a lot of time out of town. Knowing the chickens were secure at night but free range during the day was a huge weight off my shoulders. We were able to have neighbors check on them but not worry about time restraints. Now we have had it operating over a winter and the batteries made it through to spring. I had to clear ice a few times; I don’t think there is really any way around that.

Simple but very effective. Makes mounting control unit so easy

I had. another extemely complicated system that I couldn't work. After many of my homesteading friends gave reviews about Omlet, I bought it and had my son replace the existing system. No more worries about time of day and did it work and so many other problems. I love this system

Finally a reliable door! This is our third attempt at an automatic door and I’m so glad we found this one. The coop light is an added bonus. So helpful to have the controls on the outside of the run and overall we are very happy.

got the automatic door with light and use the daylight sensor for opening and closing the door to the hutch. found i was getting unwanted mice coming into the hutch during the night so use this to keep them out. works really well and i dont need to remember to open and close the door all the time.

I bought this light so I could see to make sure my chickens were all put away for the night. I bought an extra for my first door I purchased. Maybe could be a little brighter but it is enough to see the whole chicken yard. It is very easy to install and easy to use. Love it.

I love this automatic door. This is my second as I keep adding to my flock. Easy to use and very easy to install. I like that it opens to the side instead of up. Saves a lot of space. Will buy again as I expand my farm in the future.

This gives us peace of mind if we are out past dusk. Except for the chicken that rules the roost and gets locked out. Delivery was well over a month though.
