Back to ProductMakes life easier - Joshua, Pennsylvania,
I would say that the quality of the product is 5 as it integrates perfectly with the other omlet products. Once you dial in the programming to how you like it, then it works.
My only downsides are— no remote access like other products at this price, No solar option, and the night light has limited program options

Mounting Bracket for Autodoor Control Panel - Eglu Cube Mk2
Should have ordered it when I purchased my Eglu Cube! - Tracey, Idaho,
The Automatic Chicken Coop Door with Coop Light is AWESOME! I should have ordered it when I first ordered my Eglu Cube a year ago. It works wonderfully, was easy to install, easy to program, and my chickens don't mind it at all! I'M FREE TO SLEEP IN ON THE WEEKENDS!!! Truly a blessing! Well worth it! You won't be disappointed! NOW DO IT! So freeing! Thank you Omlet for another well made product! I look forward to buying another Eglu Cube with the coop door and light...as soon as I can twist my wonderful Hubby's arm gently!

Happy Ma Ma chickens - Paul,
Our new automatic chicken coop is running and working well in our updated chicken coop. Very good instructions. Soon our ladies will enjoy an early morning access to the chicken run. Thank you Omlet!

A must-have! - Marie, Florida,
This door is great. Easy to install, and easy to program. I thought my birds would be scared of the noise of the door opening and closing, but it doesn't seem to bother them. The door isn't very noisy, but it does make an obvious grinding sound while it's operating. This door gives me peace of mind that my birds are safely tucked away in their coop at night.
Just be mindful, if you are using the 'time' function and live in an area that has daylight savings time, you will need to manually update the time for the autodoor.

I am so happy with the extra time and peace of mind having this automated door has given me. - Jenny,
I have been wanting to get an automatic door for the last year and have researched a lot of them.
The Omlet had the best reviews, looked really easy to install, and slid sideways instead of down, something I had concerns about. So, I bought one. It came quite quickly, about 2 weeks to Western Australia.
Putting the few bits I had to put together was really simple, the instructions and accompanying diagrams are all very clear.
Installing it was a tiny bit trickier as I was installing mine on an old tin wall that surrounds my chook area, but as there are only 4 points where it needs to hang from it was pretty simple, just fiddly for me.
My older girls were a little hesitant to come out through it to start with, but that lasted 2 seconds when I threw out vegie scraps for them! It's not loud at all. I have set it using a timer, rather than light, because the area is so shaded, and it opens and closes exactly on time.
I am so happy with the extra time and peace of mind having this automated door has given me.

Where have you been all my chicken-owning life - Simon,
Fitted this to a Flyte So Fancy Maggie’s chicken coop. It involved removing a few fittings from around the door, but with the video guide it was pretty simple. Works perfectly and removes a lot of the worry about (in particular) dusk fox raids. Using the time setting rather than the light setting so don’t know how well that works.

Great addition to Eglu Cube - Beverley,
Bought this recently - mainly to make it easier to have the odd night away but actually have also found it great on a day to day basis. The optional light comes on five minutes before the door shuts in the evening which seems to encourage any that are still up to head up to bed. The light goes off immediately after the door closes which settles them down nicely. Because our run is covered, we find it easier to set to times rather than to daylight; it is easy to set. The auto door is great as often we are out to work before it is light so we can put the food in and then leave the hens safe until the door opens. At the weekend we can have a lie in because the door will let them into the run - they have water and we just pop the food in when we get up. This also has the benetit of keeping the house cleaner as if we are a bit late up they are not pooping in the house. The only downside we have found so far is that sometimes the rooster plonks himself in the doorway and refuses to move- in this case , the door will try to close a few times but if he stubbornly refuses to move the door will default to open. He is getting better at going in so we are hopeful that he will get the hang of it like the hens have. Usefully the display panel shows the battery status but it is not running down quickly despite the rooster doing his best to use it up. We deliberated for quite a while before getting the auto door but we are very glad we did. It isn't cheap but it works well. Omlet in our opinion sells great quality products and customer service (should you need them) is second to none.

I love this! - Michigan,
We have had the automatic door attached to a non-omlet coop for over a year. We have it set to sun up and sun down. It has worked great, even in freezing Michigan weather. And we still have 50% battery. One of the screws came loose once and hindered it from working, but after tightening the screw, it worked perfect again. I recommend this for everyone.

Good but - Josh,
The door works but there is a learning curve. I was also disappointed that I had to purchase a bracket to mount on my eglu separate.
My only other criticism is that you have to do a lot of unscrewing to get to the batteries. I hope they get a solar option someday.
But once you work it out, it is a quality product

Game changer! - Anne, Northumberland,
I couldn’t quite believe this door would work so I set my camera on it two nights running. Perfect! Very, very easy to programme and simple to fit to an existing wooden coop. We fitted it over the original wooden door with almost no modifications needed to the original. Delighted. So glad I’m not getting up at the crack of dawn every day!!
