This auto door is a joke. I have no piece of mind. The biggest problem with this is there is a NYLON STRING to pull the door open and close. Any raccoon, skunk, weasel, even a cat could chew the string!!! Also an animal could lift it up at the bottom and rip the plastic runners right off!! I want to send it back but I no longer have the box!!
Great Door!
This automatic door is very nice! The measuring to install to the coop was a little tricky in making sure everything was square. We did eventually get it! It is
This automatic door is very nice! The measuring to install to the coop was a little tricky in making sure everything was square. We did eventually get it! It is a good piece of mind to know that my chickens are safe. The features for open/close time are very handy. It is also quiet and does not scare my girls at all!

I have 2 and now ordering a 3rd for my 3rd coop. Had 2 over a year now. Only issue I have is operator error at daylight savings, as I have mine programmed manually
I have 2 and now ordering a 3rd for my 3rd coop. Had 2 over a year now. Only issue I have is operator error at daylight savings, as I have mine programmed manually by time set... not by daylight sensor as run is covered and girls coops are placed one in trees and one open yard with more light. They work great. The 1 star review on here I believe got a defective unit. It happens. Sorry. I Love my auto doors. If I sleep in on the weekend or someone is watching them on vacation, the girls can still get locked in at night or let out in the am to run around and wait for me. Love my Brisnea auto doors!

First, Chewy has been great about replacing the product . I'm still waiting to see what Brinsea does. The first door and opener kit I received would not work
First, Chewy has been great about replacing the product . I'm still waiting to see what Brinsea does. The first door and opener kit I received would not work. From the start , which meant the door was in closed position, it said it was blocked and would not open. I reprogrammed it according to directions and restarted it several times and nothing changed. Chewy immediately sent a replacement. That door opener worked immediately except it opens correctly in the morning and then closes at some point within the next few hours. It closes properly at night after I've manually reopened it in the afternoon. It faces east and it's in direct sun when it closes during the day so should not be triggered by a sudden light change. I've contacted Brinsea about it. They responded and said a technician would get back with me. This is a great idea and I love that it closes them in safely at night but I'm not a fan of having to manually reopen the door at midday with my birds locked out.
