Verified Reviews for Smart Autodoor Control Panel
The best just got better
We absolutely loved our Autodoor, it's a game changer for chicken keeping and we'd had it for nearly 5 years working perfectly.
I saw the smart door had come out and it was just as our old control was getting a little temperamental (to be honest I think it just need a little post winter tlc and some new batteries but any excuse for an upgrade!).
We have a blink camera on our chicken coop door - so we can see if some of them hadn't made it in before the door closed and we'd have to nip out to let them in. Now, I can just open the door from the comfort and warmth of the house (or quite literally anywhere!). I love the notifications that the door has closed and I can check on the camera if they're all in safe and sound. I love it. Just the best.

Smart Autordoor
We've had an autodoor on our coop for several years now and that was certainly an improvement on doing things manually. It was battery operated but as we now how a new arrangement with mains power a bit closer from a new shed I thought it was about time to get a Smart panel. After I had boosted wifi coverage in the house it worked fine and an easy way to change opening and closing times. We have a camera inside the coop (alongside others outside also used for birds and next boxes). This provides a diversion at or mealtimes to see their squabbles at roosting and habbits before laying, or not. Now that therre is a good wifi arrangement you might like to consider marketing a camera system as a plug in? Ours is hard wired cabling but with modern wifi it should not be too difficult to set one up with a secure access for remote viewing. In fact, our son gave us a Christmas present that was a wifi-connected picture frame (Skylight Frame) that would be excellent for family viewing (although I have not tried it for video).
Anyway, thanks for the devices!
best Wishes

Works straight out of the box
I don't know how it does it but the wifi signal has incredibly long range and it's probably the only wifi product i've ever purchased that setup on the first go straight out of the box.

Thank you Omlet U S
After a 4 1/2 year trouble free door I started having issues. Contacted omelette and they were more than helpful. Such great service and I couldn’t be more pleased with the product..

Love this upgrade! Winter is easier.
We started with the Go Up and graduated to the Cube for our four chickens. Added the automatic door but I never quite mastered setting it correctly and often our chickens were not making it in. A few weeks ago, I thought how nice it would be in Omlet invented a bluetooth enabled door so I checked and there is was! Life changing considering our 8 inches of snow here in Maryland. It works perfectly and was very easy to install.

I have three
I bought the first auto control panel w my first coop and first set of chickens. I love being able to use the app on my phone to check up on the status of the door and the light. Then I added a big walk in cage to connect the coop and run to the cage for more room. I then added a smart auto door to allow the chickens to leave the big cage to free range. That is a winner too. Then I ended up w another manufacturers little secondary coop in case of overcrowding etc. I then put it in the big cage and attached a smart auto door to the little coop that I call Churchill Downs. So I have three smart auto doors and control panels. They are impressive. And then I decorated the whole thing for Christmas. It’s been fun. I appreciate Omlet.

Replacement door panel
A fox chewed the cable which runs from the door to the control panel. It also dragged the panel off the cage and damaged it.
Kudos to the lovely omelet staff member who helped telling me how to let the chooks out. They were totally fine thank goodness. Arranged for a new panel and cable. These were delivered by the next day. Thank you.

Auto door with connectivity
Had an original auto door since 2019 which has been great but slight water ingress from where I put it being lazy 😂. This door is great! Straight swap for the old one and works great with the app. Gives you the peace of mind your chickens are tucked away safely if your out and about on these darker nights.

Eggceptional!
We have three of the auto coop doors. They work great! We bought them about 4 years ago and just had to replace two of the control panels when the timer features stopped working. I like that the new control panels can connect to wifi (if you are lucky enough to get consistent wifi at your coop) and the app. I do wish that the new control panel door would stay open while you are programming it though. The old ones did. We love this product.
