I had heard about chicken door openers and came to Amazon to search for one. As I was scrolling through the products, I found this one. To be completely honest, what drew my attention to the product was that it was cheaper than the alternatives found on Amazon. I know cheaper isn't always better, and so I emailed the seller some questions about its quality and durability. I was pleased and surprised at how fast they got back to me with answers. My two concerns were snow and daylight. I live in a part of the country where we get snow, and I was worried it might not deal with colder temperatures and snow. Second, my coop is in a part of the yard where it gets less light. So, I wasn't as much worried about it opening early (or late) as I was concerned about closing early (before the chickens were ready to come in). I saw other products that had timers and/or day and night sensors, but very few adjustments. What intrigued me about the response from the company was that this was built and tested in cold environments so there were adjustments to deal with snow and daylight without having to constantly adjust the product or a clock or a sensor. Given Amazon's return policy and the company's quick and thoughtful responses, I decided to give it a try. The package arrived quickly; and not that this matters too much, but it's in a really cool enclosed design. So, everything was protected and ready to install. I half thought about using the shipping box as part of the attachment for the coop, but I realized it wasn't pressure treated. You'll see in the picture and video from the company that they install it on a wood chicken coop. But I have a TS wood+wire one. So, I took some pressure treated wood and created a panel for the door. On the back side, I cut a hole in the wire and then stapled the wire to the back of the frame. Outside of the time it took me to cut and paint the pressure treated wood, I would say the install took 20 minutes. My chickens took a day or two to get used to it, but it worked great. My problem was that one chicken kept staying out later and kept getting locked out. So, following the directions, I just turned the knob (what they call the "potentiometer" a quarter turn) and it was stayed open a little later--enough time for my late chicken to come home. Easy adjustment. The last few days, we had some snow. And again, it worked great. All in all, I only had one problem that is more of a design flaw for me on where I put the door. The door faces west and so I get a lot of snow/rain blowing in. On days that are warmer (above freezing) and then colder at night (below freezing), I did have the door freeze shut (e.g., I went out in the morning and it wasn't open). Again, enter the designers. They created dip switches to manage how much power the door gets. They recommend for slow/low motor to protect the chickens (think French guillotine). But, I had to move it up to high so that if that did happen, it would break through the little bit of ice that formed. Overall, I would recommend this product and would purchase it again. The company is really good on responding to questions. For the record, if you go with this product OR any chicken door, and you live in the cold, think about door placement as almost all roofs won't protect rain/sleet from getting in the door slot. But, again, I think the dip switches on this model help with those issues.

We purchased the run-chicken automatic door in July 2021. Very easy to install on our coop, and from Day 1 it worked flawlessly, every day opening at dawn and closing by dark. The auto-door gave us peace of mind knowing the chickens would be safely locked in their coop protected from night time predators, and "released" in the morning for daily foraging. Unfortunately, just 8 months later, the unit has begun acting up. The door failed to open one morning, and I figured no problem, the batteries were shot. I replaced the batteries and the unit worked as designed for a few days, but then started having issues. It sometimes would not open on its own in the morning daylight, but it still closed on its own after dark. Some days, I could push the test button to get the door to open, other days there was no response at all with the test button (even after holding it down for 20+ seconds). On those days, I had to manually raise the door to let the chickens out. Even after a "manual opening" in the morning, the door would close automatically on its own after dark. I pulled and tested the new batteries, they still have a full charge, so it's not a battery issue. I've made sure the light sensor is clean/unobstructed, but the unit seems now to have a mind of its own now, sometimes functioning, sometimes not. Maybe the light sensor has a limited life and is failing? Bottom line, we've been extremely happy with the product, it worked as advertised, but for the price we were expecting a longer life before having to deal with finding a replacement. UPDATE! - Customer Service mailed us a new electronic unit at no charge. The new unit seems to be more solidly constructed then our original. With new electronics, the door is up and running again and you can count us among the very satisfied customers!

We've had this door for 3 years now and it's been amazing. We've had zero issues with it. I think we've only replaced the batteries one time in the last 3 years. It's kept our chickens safe and we've had peace of mind when we're not home in the evening - knowing that they will be safely locked up in their house for the night. I can't recommend this product enough!

I'm not sure where to start. When this door works it works well. The problem is that it can't be trusted. Early on I discovered that the light sensing feature can be affected by a campfire and not just by sunrise/sunset. The literature accompanying the door and their advertising says this isn't so. I was burning some fallen branches about 30 yards from the coop and after dark the door would open and close depending on the size of the fire. I reprogramed the door to the GPS mode and had to reprogram every week or so to keep the times consistent with actual sunrise/sunset. So far these are just annoyances. Here are the two dangerous issues. I came out one morning to find a chicken who had apparently stuck it's head out of the door for a last look in the run as the door started to close. The door closed on her neck and instead of reversing it just kept her pinned tightly all night. I'm not sure if it just choked her or broke her neck but she was just as dead either way. The door would not open by pressing the button. I had to force it open. I removed and reinstalled the batteries and reprogrammed the door and watched it like a hawk for a week or so (not convenient to have to watch your automatic door) and it functioned as advertised. Recently, I went out to the coop in the morning and the door had failed to open on schedule. It was over an hour late. Here in Southeast Texas it had already started to get hot in the tin-roof coop. We had just returned from a few days out of town and I hate to think what we would have returned to had the malfunction occurred while we were away. No doubt we would have lost the entire flock. Run Chicken was not at all interested in addressing the problem. I wrote them and explained exactly what had happened. I told them the door light flashed very dimly red and rapidly and asked if this was a known issue. The batteries were fresh but I replaced them and have had another malfunction with the same rapidly flashing red light. The door is out of warranty and I was inquiring about replacing the motor section with a new T-80 at my expense. They said they "require" a video of the malfunction, a receipt for purchase of the door, and a photo of the serial number. I don't wear a bodycam so I don't have a video of the malfunction, and the other items they "require" should only be for warranty issues, which this was not. These people don't care about making their product safer and I find them impossible to deal with. Their product is dangerous junk and I have another brand on order. Use this one at your own risk. When it works, it works reasonably well, but when it fails you may have a coop full of dead birds.

We absolutely love having an automatic chicken door! It is really nice having our chickens let out on their own. We have had some issues and have had to change the batteries a few times already. We have had it for roughly 6 months. Some weeks I have no problems with the door and other weeks it won't open all the way. It will always close all the way though. My husband and I have to leave for work before the sun rises most of the time and this door helps keep our chickens on a schedule. It also is great in the winter when we don't make it home before sunset. It gives us a peace of mind for our chickens. I will say this door will not close on a chicken. Our chickens actually cause it to pause and stop when it is opening because they all try to run out the door so fast that the door thinks there is a chicken trapped. Even my baby chickens who stop in the entry way have never been crushed or killed. So props to the company for that. It is easy to install and is user friendly. When we first got it we had issues with our family members pushing the button and it would change the automatic timer. So that was a little frustrating at first. But once we explained how it worked we have not had an issue with the automatic timer. The days the door did not open all the way it was sometimes due to coldness, bad batteries, or maybe my chickens made it freeze up. I am not sure why it sometimes opens half way. I thankfully have in laws that come and check on the chickens for us in case the door does not open on those weeks it is being flaky. Majority of the time we really like it though. If you have average sized ducks they will fit in this door. We have muscovys and the males (35 lbs) they are a tight squeeze but if there is food in the coop they will squeeze through to get to that food. So if you want a good automatic door for chickens or ducks I would recommend it even with its flaky weeks.

UPDATE: January 18th 2024- we had a cold spell and some rain that froze the door shut for a few days. My partner and I would carefully pour water on the sides of the door to unfreeze it, but it would freeze back by the time the door had to open or close again. After a few days of this, I thought we had broken the door because the light was no longer coming on and the motor had stopped working. We changed out the batteries which caused the light to blink different colors but didn’t get the motor going again. I called customer service before purchasing another, and they instructed me to wipe down the battery terminals with an alcohol swipe (basic maintenance) and see what happens. It’s running again like new! This is a quality product that can hold up to even the dumbest of user abuses. I was fully ready to purchase a new one because if we broke it, it would have been our fault but it seems we’re still in the clear! UPDATE: still working well in December 2023! This door looks nice and was easy to install. One of the screw heads did break off while I was trying to attach the door to the coop, which made me nervous about the quality of the rest of the door, but so far it seems to be nice and sturdy and is working as intended. I tested the door on my hand and it came down slowly yet forcefully on me which had me very nervous that it could crush one of my chicks. Well, low and behold earlier tonight two of my chicks decided they wanted to roost right in the door as it closed on them… and somehow they’re fine. I’m not really sure how it didn’t crush them since the door seemed to be VERY strong when it came down on me… but my dumb little chicks were just sleeping there with the door halfway closed on them without a care in the world. They didn’t even want to move when I came outside freaking out thinking they were dead and opened the door manually for them. So far, I’m happy with this product and I hope it continues to work as it is now without any issues.

***Update 2/27/2024*** The unit continued to have issues after the last update and the company sent me another drive unit which fixed the issue. I have had no problems since and I'm happy with the product. The company said that this was the first ever issue they had had like this and were excellent in their resolution. Would absolutely recommend purchasing from this company. ***Update 9/24/2023 from 1 to 5 stars... The company reached out to me after my review to resolve my issue. They sent excellent instructions via email and even attached videos of them doing the repair for my convenience. They were fast to respond to my questions and within about 5 minutes of work the door was working like it should. Excellent customer service and I look forward to the door working as designed. American Made!!! *9/15/2023 Original review, 1 star... When I received the item it did not run as smoothly up and down as I thought it should but since it worked I was not concerned. The motor seemed to bog down a bit but I thought it was normal. After about 2 weeks I came outside to find the door did not open and stopped a few inches from the closed position. I changed the batteries since sometimes you get batteries that are not that great with a product. I thought this would work since the battery life is supposed to be 1 year. I noticed that the door did not run as smoothly up and down again as I thought it should so I washed everything and oiled everything. After it was completely clean it still rubbed on the way up and down but it was like it was at the beginning so I thought it was back to normal. The return window was closed at this time so I could not exchange it for another one. The new batteries lasted for about a month and again I came out to find the door a few inches from shut in the morning (stopped during opening again). I contacted Amazon and I am outside my return and product assistance window at 3 months so I have a $180 non-working door. I'm sure I just got one that was manufactured with a little curve that I didn't know was wrong until it was too late. Amazon has offered a refund minus shipping and restocking fees and has also given me the company's number to contact them for warranty information if they offer it. I will update this page as thing progress. Since it's not at all reliable at this time after only a few weeks initially, I would give it 1 star. If it worked as advertised and consistently, it would have 5 stars. I like everything else about it including the ease of custom programming. I hope they stand by their American made product for more than 3 months!

I absolutely loved this product. I chose it over the other items due to the ease of installation. It worked great, but then it stopped working. I bought it in July 2021. 3 days ago, I noticed my chickens were not out in the morning. I went down and noticed the door did not open as it should have. I pressed the button and the door opened. I wiped it down with a wet paper towel thinking maybe the sensor could not detect the light. That evening, it did not close. Again, I had to go in and push the button and it would close. The next day, the same thing. I did not have any indication that the batteries were dying, but decided to change the batteries. After changing the batteries, the unit totally stopped working, no light nothing. I put in the old batteries and still dead. The unit is totally dead. Contacted Amazon who walked me through how to submit a warranty request. The company responded very quickly, within 2 hours. Through a couple of messages, they determined the unit to be dead and sent me a new head unit. This occurred on a Saturday and the new head unit arrived the next day (Sunday delivery). I couldn’t be happier!! This unit is great and the service is just as great. I highly recommend!
