Automatic Chicken Coop Door Opener Cage Closer

Purchased this chicken coop auto door to replace cheaper one that failed. It has been a great replacement, especially the light sensitive trigger. I recommend.

Easy to install, works like clockwork. Happily recommend this product. I bought two and installing the other this weekend!

100% must have. Totally awesome! Great for the girls.. Even better for humans!

I absolutely love this! Spewing I didnt buy one years ago.. It does exactly what its meant to do.. 100% reliable, on time, every time. Easy as to install. I have been going up to watch it close almost every night.. Its just so satisfying. I have a pair of foxes that come every single night and check their luck.. The peace of mind knowing the girls are safe, is such a relief. I can sleep in knowing they are let out at a safe time, and if im not home by dusk, no worries! They are safely locked up. If you have chooks, you just have to have one of these auto doors! This one allows open/close by time or light sensor, and a combination of either/both! Perfect. I cant recommend it any higher! Love it!

Giantz chicken door opener

This is a great product; easy to install and operate. Initially I had problems getting the door to operate smoothly. This is probably the most crucial aspect to get right, otherwise it will never close. Haven't tried using the sensor yet.

Its ok

Seems to be working fine after using it for a week. 2 of the pre drilled holes in the aluminium bars were in the wrong place so I had to drill the correct ones. Not sure the box housing the motor will withstand rain so yet to see. It does work though.

Makes life easier!

This Auto door saves us from going out in the cold in the morning to let the chickens out, and goes down after they head to bed. We had to attach some fishing sinkers to get some more weight on it to go down, though works perfectly now. It's a good quality door and we trust it to keep nasty foxes out!

No more did I shut the chooks in

I love this product. I lost my first three chooks to a fox all because I forgot to shut their coop one night. I felt terrible about this especially as it was my fault. Now I dont have the weight of responsibility to shut the new flock in and it is such a relief.

Terrible instructions, good unit.

The manual / instructions are TERRIBLE. The damend thing wouldn't work and the step you needed to take to make it work were not in the manual, but in a totally unrelated Youtube video we found (you have to put the black cap over the light sensor, press close, click your heels together three times and do a little jig, then it starts working!). This is not specified in the so-called instructions. Apart from that, it's now working like a charm and keeps the possums out of the coop at night. Yay!

Have had it installed for a couple of weeks and seems to work quite well. Reasonably easy to install and set up. The girls took to using it in a matter of minutes. The only thing that would make it better would be a small solar panel and batteries but it is easy to change batteries as is.

Would be fantastic with a larger door

Product works really well, I did however have to weight the door to allow it to close as i have the line going around 3 pulleys and the door which comes with is really light. I would have prefered a larger door as this one (in my opinion) is suited to small and medium sized birds. My Large indian game has trouble with the width and my Brahma Rooster (only the size of a Light Sussex) has a little troubole with the size all round.
