Ultimate Chicken Door Opens Sideways
 |
The Autodoor has an electric motor and metal gear that’s directly mounted to the door frame. Unlike automatic doors that work on a string and pulley system, it can’t be lifted by predators. And unlike other chicken doors, it opens to the side.
The system is powered by four AA batteries so there’s no need for a nearby power source or additional wiring.
A small weatherproof control box with a light sensor allows the door to open and close according to natural light levels. However, it can be programmed to open and close at set times.
The Autodoor also has built-in safety sensors that detect if the opening is blocked and opens before trying to close it again.
The door has been tested to -4 F.
The Autodoor sells for $179 on the company website. Shipping is free.
Omlet offers a 180-day money-back guarantee. The majority of users on the Omlet website give Autodoor 5 out of 5 stars. Sue says, “Great door. This is the 5th door type I’ve tried. The others go up and down and always break. Finally, a quality product that opens sideways. Highly recommend.”
