Verified Reviews for Smart Automatic Chicken Coop Door

Our hens aren't at home so it was a real nuisance having to go back out to our smallholding late in the evening to secure them. This door has solved all of that! The light that comes on with it helps them all get onto their roosts safely and then the door quietly closes. Couldn't be without it.

This coop door was an easy install and has been incredibly reliable, never jamming. It seems designed for most coop set ups and with chicken-life in mind. I love that to door slides closed from the side, so nothing can get stuck at the base and leave a gap. The threshold design prevents debris from collecting and causing issues. It also looks great! I installed ours six months ago and the battery life is still showing 100%. The dusk to dawn sensor has worked great and our hens adapted quickly. I just ordered a second door for a new coop for a second batch of chickens. It's been worth every penny and allows us to safely leave our hens for the day or a dinner out.

This is the second auto-door I have purchased for my second timber hen house. It makes life so much easier, particularly in the summer when the hens are out later than me. I can hear the door close in the evening and open in the morning from my bed and know that all is well. The customer service team at Omlet are simply second to none! A very genuine and trustworthy organisation that I have no hesitation in recommending!

This auto door are great, I have one for my coop and a second on my run, they have made my life so much simpler.

Easy to assemble, mounted it, put the batteries in and IT WORKED, just like it should and has ever since.

It allows chickens to sleep at night safe and light allows us to see them.

The Auto Door has been a great success. With the addition of a “porch” roof that provides cover and a mounting point for the control box the door works very well. The light sensor points out from the wooded area, avoiding too much shade.

My door has been in use now for 21 months, still operating with the original batteries showing 80% charge. The door has worked flawlessly in 0 degrees as well as 115 degrees and I am incredibly pleased.

Installed the auto door and light about 4 weeks ago into a Cube Mk2. Should have bought this a long time ago! Means we can have a sleep-in on a Sunday morning and have the odd night away without having to worry or find someone else to close/open the Eglu door. Installed relatively easy with clear step by step instructions. Required some dismantling of the Cube, but this made installation easier. If you’re fitting into a Cube Mk2, it doesn’t matter what colour you choose, as the coloured side of the door is on the inside (unless your chickens have a preference for green or grey)! We bought the light for it, but this only confused the chickens when it came on as they were already inside and then ventured out when the light came on, then being locked out! So we don’t use the light, but the door is great. We have it on timed open/close every day and the battery is still showing as 100% after nearly 4 weeks. I’d highly recommend this auto door!!

Installed into my 4 meter x 4 meter pole and mesh frame , it allows the hens to have some freedom inside the mesh frame in the light summer months before free ranging once we are up and about , had problems with foxes a few times when the hens were out early doors, now safe until we are around. Easy fit and time set up , 4 good quality batteries have lasted 8 months.
