Customer Reviews for VEVOR Automatic Chicken Coop Door, Auto Open/Close, Gear Lifter Galvanized Poultry Gate with Evening and Morning Delayed Opening Timer & Light Sensor, Battery Powered LCD Screen, for Duck, Red

I bought 2 doors. I had been stressing over getting the coops open and shut in a timely manner, particularly as the days have quickly gotten shorter. By 4pm it's dark now in the puget sound area. They are battery operated. I wish it would have a dawn to dusk feature but you can set the time you want it to open and close. Very easy to install and set up. Just 6 screws. I did add 2 pieces of wood to my A frame. Very happy with my new doors!

This is a great door! It was easy to install and works like a charm. It gives me piece of mind to know the chickens are safe and warm at night.

This automatic door is easy to set up and program. The instructions were clear and made sense. I am able to adjust the sensitivity of the door so that it stops if my chickens are in the way. I can program the door to open and close on a timer setting or on a light setting. This has made my life much easier!

Works like it's supposed to

I had bought a different automatic door prior to this one that had good reviews, but was also a newer Amazon product. I absolutely could not figure that one out, nothing worked, it seemed like a fake.I found this with a good price and was skeptical again to not have a bad experience, but I love this door! It’s a little bigger than other products and for me that was perfect since I already had a cut hole in my coop where the door would fit. This is SUPER easy to program. I love the different options of using time and daylight to open and close the door. I have mine set to time-time because there are too many trees blocking where sunlight would reach the sensors. It opens and closes promptly and slowly so that chickens don’t get caught.I’ve been using it for just shy of a month now and I checked the battery amount and still said 100%. I was concerned that the snow/sleet we’ve had would cause the batteries to die quicker, but so far so good. And they’re cheap batteries from Harbor Freight, so they tend not to last as long.The only concerning notes I have would be to make sure the screws for the door aren’t too tight so that the door can open and close smoothly. It does go slow, so not much force and probably won’t try to open if one corner is too tight. The other is that there is a setting for force detected if a chicken were caught in the way. I wasn’t quite able to get this properly working. I changed the amount and put my hand in the way as a test and the door still tried to close. Not sure how long it needs to feel something blocking before it opens again.

I’ve been through a few doors. The first door we tried was the copy to this. One year later it still runs flawlessly on light to light mode 24/7. I tried a few other doors but they all had flaws that eventual show through. I purchased VEVOR again and should have never bought those others. I’ll never make that mistake again. VEVOR you have a life long customer in me!

Works well. Easier to program then the ADOR I had previously.

We have a few chickens in our backyard coop, and work full time. This door is amazing and allows the chickens to keep to a schedule every day without having to wait on us and our work schedules. It is easy to install and program, and helped us with the day in and out stress of our free range backyard chickens

This is the bomb! I have tried corded ones in past and having it battery operated is the best… reliable and secure

This was my 3rd auto chicken door, don’t waste your money on other doors, buy this door it’s fabulous and works great. I absolutely love it.
