    Omlet auto door -Top product

    This is an excellent product. We bought our first one a couple of years ago and the batteries still haven't needed replacing. We run it on time, and it is 100% reliable, easy to install and program, and robust.

    Coop door + auto door

    They’re working well. The pullets found their way on the second day. The battery says 0% I read the batteries need replacing every four months? I’ll give it this first month for the hens to settle and then change the batteries just in case there’s an issue. I’m not an electrician etc, it was easy to install. It took me a few goes to programme but now it’s easy. The instructions for when to install were not correct for the package( or I made a mistake) have learnt that although moving the eglu is easy, I’m careful not to change it’s orientation unless necessary. I have a winter and summer side of the garden for them.

    Another great sanity investment!

    My hens are happy and I am happy! No early-morning wake ups! One little Silkie still figuring out the night time door (sitting half in and half out!)but while she figures it out the door won’t close on her as registers she’s there. Worth getting!

    Auto chook door

    Great service as always, and fast delivery. Easy to install and set up, looks really sturdy and well made. Has been in a month now and can't believe we put off getting one of these for so many years. So nice not to have to be up at the crack of dawn to let the chooks out - especially with the super early summer days approaching!

    Awesome door!

    So pleased we went with the omlet door .. we definitely can see it’s sturdy and well made with quality fittings . It’s on the newly made coop .. now just waiting to get its first pullet flatmates!
    Delivery was fast and items were well packaged.. wouldn’t hesitate to deal with Appleton’s again .

    Omlet Automatic door for chickens

    This is great. Gives me the freedom to go away for a few days. Easy to install and great tutorial on Youtube re programming the timer. The installation does not faze the chickens one bit. A very good buy although not the cheapest one available. Would highly recommend.

    Powered By Battery

    Just 4x AA batteries reliably power the Autodoor for up to 6 months.

    Please note that batteries are not supplied with the Automatic Chicken Coop Door and if you are using the Autodoor combined with a Coop Light you will have up to 4 months battery life. If you would like to power your Autodoor from a main outlet then you must purchase the Omlet-approved 12 V supply separately. These are not available in NZ.

    Note: you should only use the Omlet-approved power supplies with the Autodoor. We cannot offer any warranty (expressed or implied), support or advice if you connect any other form of power supply to your Autodoor.

    Safe and Sound

    The Autodoor uses sophisticated safety sensors to protect hens that dawdle in the doorway, just like elevator doors. After gently nudging and opening again, the Autodoor will attempt to close 5 more times until the path is clear.

    The Omlet autodoor safety sensors will stop the doors from closing if there's something in the way.
    Add a coop light to your Omlet Autodoor to encourage your hens to bed at night.
    Once your hens are safely inside the Omlet Autodoor closes.

    Does Your Flock Stay Up Late?

    Omlet have designed the Coop Light to guide late night hens to their roost. Powered by and perfectly synced up with your Autodoor, it comes on 5 minutes before the door is scheduled to close. Once everyone is safely tucked up and the door closed, the coop light gently turns off.
