Don't waste your time or money on other automatic chicken doors. This one is easy to install, easy to setup, easy to adjust the time as needed, no snagging of the door, and it's locked in place when it closes. We bought 2 other auto doors a couple years back (not sure this door was even available at the time) and trust me, they are awful compared to the Chickenguard. Please take this chicken Mama's word for it, order from Chickenguard, you will be so happy with the auto door. We plan to replace the other automatic doors with 2 more Chickenguard doors ASAP!

I purchased a ChickenGuard on Amazon twice first, and both doors came in with issues where they would not fully open. I was instructed to purchase direct from the ChickenGuard website, so I did, and received a functioning door. At first, the door was programmed to open at night and close in the morning for some reason- backwards! But once I figured that out and reprogrammed it, it's been working well every day as of 5 months later. It's been great, no issues! Definitely recommend skipping the Amazon stock for this product.

Overall I am very happy with the door. I had originally hoped to use the SENSOR option but have not been able to. It is important to note that if the door will be installed into a covered run, the SENSOR option WILL NOT work. I have since, used the timer option and the door has worked very well.

I live in south central AK, it will get down to -30°F in the winter and the door still works! I'm happy so far with my purchase.

We have not had a single problem with this chicken door. We had bought ANOTHER brand door and had problems with it every single day. After about a month, we bought your Chicken Guard door and it consistently works. I have peace of mind and never have to think about the chickens. I should have bought the Chicken Guard door in the first place.
