Satisfied with this automatic chicken coop door, it makes my life so much easier as it takes the hassle out of opening and closing the coop on a daily basis. The programmable light sensor and timer function allow me to set exactly when I want the door to open and close, keeping my chickens safe while
also saving me time and energy, perfect for us for going on vacation so this is a great solution! The weatherproof design is a huge plus, no issues whatsoever. I also appreciate the product's solid aluminum gate - it's durable and secure, keeps my chickens away from predators, easy to install with clear installation instructions and videos. Keeping the coop and the chickens safe, the door has a reverse feature that reverses itself to prevent injury if it closes while one of the chickens is in the door. The large LCD screen has 4 buttons to easily set any necessary timers, and there are also 2 power modes, which is a great feature to run on battery power in the event of a power outage, Based on my experience, this product is below market average price, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an automatic door for a chicken coop. Hope my review is helpful to you.

A Functional Coop Door for a little Less $$
This one arrived sorta on time a day late double boxed with no signs of being handled roughly. Thank you UPS. Installed 3 AA batteries, looked at the backside picture, and it was all intuitive. Just know that it waits 2 minutes before taking action (excepting the manual open/close button). The door l
ift action seems strong enough to run even when the batteries get weak. There is an anti pinch feature that's simpler than having a sensor to keep the door from closing on a bird. I plan to install it on the face of a box shaped feeder. The included manual is minimally useful and could be written more clearly. In 1 place it states use AAA batteries, in another it correctly states use AA. It also incorrectly warns to not use batteries during extreme cold. The solution there is to use the pricier lithium batts commonly found in large stores; good to minus 40 degrees. The door is a little larger than some, 9"x 11.8". My Muscovy hens will fit, the drakes will not. Someone needs to offer a larger door to those of who like to coop large ducks, geese and/or turkey for under $200. There are light settings and timer settings. You can use any combination of those to open once in the morning and close once in the evening, BUT you can NOT use both to have the door open and shut in the morning, then open and shut again in the evening. This bars having their food in the coop and keeping critters out while your birds free range during the day. Other than this (and the manual), it's a good buy and worthy of 5 stars. I hope to update after using a few months.

This is great, when it works. I'd day 50% of the time it won't open in the morning. I haven't had an issue with it closing at night but it's finicky in the morning. I have a camera set up where I can see the door and half the mornings I see the door open, then it closes part way, opens, closes, somet
imes 2 or three more times. I've cleaned the tracks and the door, hoping this was the problem but it did it again today. It's plugged in, with the battery back up. I'm considering returning it but really need this to work.

We absolutely love this hen house door! It has made a huge difference not having to go let the hens in/out in the pouring rain. Also, if we have to go out of town for the day we can know the hens are taken care of. It was very easy to install and easy to program! I highly recommend this product!

I've been using this auto door for a little over a month. It was super convenient, as my ducks like to coop up late, and I don't like shutting them out all night, or leaving my coop door open all night. Last night, despite being programmed, having full batteries, and working for the last month, the d
oor never closed. This morning, I realized my favorite muscovy boy is gone, with a trail of feathers outside the coop and leading into the woods. I am heartbroken. So please be wary and double check your coop at night. This door apparently is not reliable, and I had to lose my favorite duck to learn the hard way. *Update, I reset my times to open at 15:00, once I was home, and to close at dusk. Yesterday, it didn't open at all. This morning, it opened at 06:30am. Like, this thing isn't even kind of trying anymore.

Excellent Quality and Durability
I have been using the Automatic Chicken Coop Door Opener for several months now and I am impressed with its quality and durability. The aluminum poultry coop door is sturdy and can withstand extreme temperatures, making it suitable for any weather condition. The large screen LCD display and intuitive
setting adjustment make it easy to customize the switch time. I appreciate the option of two power supply methods, especially during the winter when battery consumption is high. The automatic opening and closing of the coop door saves me a lot of time and effort. The anti-clip coop door feature ensures the safety of my chickens, giving me peace of mind. Overall, a great investment for any poultry farmer

Chicken coop electric door
This is a revision of an earlier rating of three star. I had concerns about getting this device wet and using batteries. The manufacturers got in touch with me and assured me that the device is waterproof and that using batteries is not a problem. I’ve changed my rating from a three to a five because
they responded so quickly to my review.

Product worked great for about 6 weeks. Now won’t stay closed when it’s time for bed. Disappointed and not much help from Amazon. Partial refund. The thing is 6 weeks in use. Will have to take my business elsewhere

Couldn't get it to open once installed.
I really wanted this to work. It opens and closes fine when laying on our counter. Once installed, we could never get it to open. It always seemed to think there was an obstruction but there wasn't. There was no way to override the safety to open it manually. It would start to open and then close rig
ht away. We tried to install 5-6 times following the instructions and no luck. Works fine before installation but never worked when installed. Luckily amazon has a great replacement policy and we were able to get our money back.

The media could not be loaded. Beautifully designed, fast shipping, and a worthwhile component for the chicken coop. Works great.

This product uses up the batteries so fast I'm going to need to purchase a different door and junk this one as it's past the 30-day window and Amazon cannot help except for a 10-dollar promotional payment. I've gone through three battery changes in two months. I don't have the option to plug it in. I
keep batteries near the door for emergency changes. So sad!

This door died just under 60 days. The "weatherproof" door got water in the controller and no longer works for battery or plug use. What a joke and no way to deal with a seller as Amazon is fulfiller. A typical seller might actually provide some help, but in this case I get no support. What a waste o
f 140 bucks! Thanks Amazon :(

I was skeptical about the other reviews saying that it stopped working after a few months and I tried it anyways. I should have just read the reviews because mine died in two months! Not sure what product is better but don’t buy this one.

Works Gerat If You Dont Care If It Works On Time!
Everything seem to function OK with this product EXCEPT it does not keep accurate time. The internal clock loses more than a minute per day. Its like having a fancy auto filling water bucket that leaks, not very useful.
