Verified Reviews for Smart Automatic Chicken Coop Door

I've been looking at all different automatic doors for my chicken coop and kept coming back to Omlet. I chose the grey door and opted for the coop light as well. The door is super easy to install...mine was on an existing coop. The light was easy too, put it right above the door on the inside and fastened the wire with black gorilla tape for a clean look [my coop is black]. It took some adjusting the time mode and it is in military time just to note but once you get the hang of it, it's super easy! Now, the light turns on 5 minutes before the door is set to close...the ladies go right in...5 mins later, the door shuts! Makes my life so much easier!!! I do recommend going out a few mornings/nights to make any time adjustments but it really is an amazing door! Thank you!!!

I have only had my Omlet door for a week, but so far so good! I switched from light sensor to time sertings for opening & closing because our coop just isn't in a great spot for the light sensor. The time function works great, will just have to adjust as sunrise/sunset shifts.

Just got installed. Only been in use for a few days. Very happy with it. Customer service was outstanding due to a mistake on my part.

I bought my first door about a year ago. I love ,love ,love it!! No issues what so ever. The batteries I originally put in are still at 70%! So easy to install, I watched the website video they give a link to. You can change the setting super easy. I prefer the time mode to compensate for cloudy/rainy days. I'm getting ready to purchase a second door for my boys in their bachelor pad. We'll worth the money if you have it.

I purchased this chicken door because it was recommended by multiple people. I did have to adjust my frame door size to meet the expectations recommended in the instructions. I prefer clearer instructions. However, once I figured how it was explained, I was able to put it together, by myself. I ordered the door with the light. But, the wiring for the light had separated from the connector. I originally emailed Omlet about my situation. They didn't contact me back in a timely matter. So, I contacted via phone. The customer service rep was pleasant and helped me with my needs. She sent me a new light. I haven't received it yet. But, I am hopefully it won't have the same issue. The chickens had no issues with getting used to the door opening and closing on its own.

I purchased the coop light for use with my automatic door. I’ll be honest, it’s pretty worthless for my chickens. I think it confuses them! My chickens are in bed prior to dusk and when the coop light turns on they start clucking and stick their heads back outside. That’s the awesome thing about chickens is that they have their own little internal light sensors! I gave it 4 stars as the light works perfectly! I just find it an unnecessary for chickens.

Purchased this for use with my large Eglu Omlet. The door is 100% worth the cost! I love the knowledge that my chickens are out first thing in the morning and that it’ll close each evening without any intervention. We are a very busy family and so it is a relief that it’s so reliable! I tried the light sensor but I felt like it kept them in the coop for too long in the mornings. Very satisfied with the night light sensor timing. I’ve decided to just use the timer. It’s very easy to change the open/close time and I just change it each month based on the timing of dawn/dusk. I’ve had the coop for 4 months and am still at 90% battery. I did purchase the coop light but I wish I hadn’t as it seems to just confuse them at bedtime to have a light on. Overall, highly recommend purchase of the automatic door!

Pretty easy to set up using instructions provided. Seems to work as promised so far! It’s nice to not have to run out first thing to let the girls out.

Exactly what I needed. Safety feature is great, tested it on my hand a few times. Love the light sensor setting and the additional coop light I added to the order. Great peace of mind knowing my girls are all safely tucked into bed each night. Install was quick and easy. Works flawlessly

As other reviewer stated, the pre-drilled pilot holes are too large for the provided screws. I had to toss the screws and go find some longer/bigger ones to make it work. Not a big deal, but it delayed my install and seems like a repeated problem that Omlet may want to address!
