Verified Reviews for Autodoor Fixing Packs & Accessories

Good all round product but would be handy to be able to set the time in the morning (prefer them to come out at 7am in summer) and dusk setting in the evening. At the moment can't mix and match.

This door is amazingly simple to install and use. I have three automatic coop doors for my coops and this one was the easiest and fastest install. It was so simple and I liked it so much that when it was time to get an auto door for my Silkie Coop this was my go to door. The only thing I wish was that there could be a separate auto program for the coop light. It is set to come on 5 minutes before the door closes, but for Silkies they are so stubborn - it would be nice to be able the coop light to come on and go off on a separate schedule from the door. This way you could have the light come on independently of the door so they had plenty of time to get in and get comfy before the door closes. I use a smart coop light in my other coops and control the light with a schedule within the Phillips Hue app, but I didn't have electrical to add to my newest coop, so I chose to use the Omlet Coop light with the auto door. I really hope they take this request into consideration so that it might help other chicken owners as well. Aside from this small issue the door itself is fantastic and so easy to use!

Love this door and absolutely recommend it. It would be perfect if I could adjust the settings to use light at night when my hens go in by themselves, but be able to use time in the morning when I don’t want them out as early. My hens free range and I like for them to eat inside the coop for a few hours in the morning before heading out. Fuller bellies means less damage to my plants outside.

I would say that the quality of the product is 5 as it integrates perfectly with the other omlet products. Once you dial in the programming to how you like it, then it works. My only downsides are— no remote access like other products at this price, No solar option, and the night light has limited program options

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.

After the purchase of two Omlet Automatic Doors, I've found them to be a good investment. The timed settings option is great to allow owner to set entry and exit times for a coop and run. However, once the mechanism is plugged with something (straw, dirt, etc.), the door is most difficult to clean and clear. I strongly suggest an update where the door can completely be removed to allow better access to the track for cleaning.

Nice and simple to install and program. A simple bendable sheetmetal bracket would be great for those of us who can't afford a $1200 chicken coop

Pleased with it overall, but battery indicator says 0% when they are brand new batteries. It is quite a simple control system so if there is a next generation it would be great to have the ability to have a mix of time and manual settings as an option, and the ability to set and control it through a phone app and perhaps even a webcam option so I can see what's happened.

I bought this light so I could see to make sure my chickens were all put away for the night. I bought an extra for my first door I purchased. Maybe could be a little brighter but it is enough to see the whole chicken yard. It is very easy to install and easy to use. Love it.

Chicks complain like mad when they want to get out and Lazy Dave has lowered the grid preventing access to the run (presumably to allow for some maintenance without Truble jumping up and No5 pecking at his toes and Sterling getting under his feet) and forgotten to open it - Just like the Pre Omlet days when Lazy Dave had to get up to allow them out ! Lazy Dave thinks the door is great however could be improved by connecting to the Cloud such that confirmation that the door is Open, Closed or Blockled. Fortunately Lazy Dave has a solution for this and would love to hear from Omlet if they are interested.
