Verified Reviews for Smart Automatic Chicken Coop Door

Best invention ever! You have made my life easier and less stressed! No more worries of getting home shortly after dark. No getting out in the cold and snow to open up our coop! Works anazing! Easy to install as well!

No more going out after dark in the rain to close up the chicken house. I love that. On frosty mornings, I can sit in my kitchen sipping my coffee without putting on my wellies and going to the hen house. I did add the light, which comes on a few minutes before the door shuts, which also has worked well for my duck who has always waited to be herded in at night. I'm thrilled. It was pricey but worth every penny. Thank you for an excellent product!

I haven't unpacked my parcel yet as I shan't need it until I get my chickens in Spring, but thought here would be a good place to thank and praise your customer service staff and the system you have in place to help people like me. I had ordered a wrong item for my cube and was heartened by how pleasant, efficient and helpful you were at your end. I heartily recommend you! D.B.

The peace of mind is worth its price in gold. So convenient. Set the timer and relax. Don’t have to worry about letting them out and making sure they are tucked in at night.

The chickens took a day to get used to walking through their new door. I put rocks on either side for them to walk through a bit easier because it is higher off the ground than they were used to. The door itself is great quality. Overall, easy to set up. I just found it a bit confusing because it came with screws for every attachment setup. Many screws and brackets were for attaching to the Eglu, which I didn't need. It would be good if those were organised and labelled for the different attachment setups. Once I figured out which screws I needed, which was only a few, it was easy. We didn't get an attachment kit. We wanted to figure out what would work best for our coop and use spare bits of wood if needed. We ended up just using some of the provided flat brackets and screws to attach to our coop, which has thick mesh. It is very sturdy. I use the timer setting because I feel that it will be more reliable than the light sensor. I have it set to open at 6:30 am and close at 8:30 pm. That was easy to set up. It takes 4 AA batteries, which go into the control panel. No batteries are provided. Instructions say to check batteries every three months. The control panel displays the remaining power, so that is great. The control panel requires unscrewing to change the batteries, but that will be fine. The chickens are now quiet in the morning and start about their day without us needing to get out of bed!

I’ve had to separate my chickens - some are very mean! Bought one automatic door for the naughty girls, so that I don’t have to rush up each morning to let them out of their house. We have had a fox kill quite a few over the years so we lock them up at night. Works so well, we bought one for the other girls. They work out how to go through in no time. Now we have peace of mind and makes it so much easier when we go away and have someone come in to check on them.

My Omlet door has worked perfectly for 3.5 years. I just replaced the batteries in it as well. Not bad considering I live in the Boston area with cold winters. I bought another door recently that locks the hens’ food safely at night in a plywood box I made.

We bought our first omelet chicken door to replace a cheaper manufacturers that simply wasn't reliable. It works so well we bought a second to expand our chicken's independence. Well worth the higher price.

Bought this to replace a vertical auto door that continuously would not open properly. I hoped that the horizontally opening door would close completely every night, keeping my chickens safe. It works so much better that I am buying a second Omlet door for the other side. It’s very good quality and easy to install. Highly recommend!

I love it ... have just purchased my second automatic door, I bought one a couple of years ago and installed it on the wire of my chicken house, today I installed my second door, on the doorway to the chicken sleeping quarters. It is comforting to know that my girls are safe at night and I can sleep in occasionally 😴
