Instructions/Diagrams:
Benefits
- Close the coop at night and allow access to the outside when the sun rises.
- Included guides allow the door to open/close without sticking. Pulleys change angle of lift string for optimal placement.
- If the door encounters resistance by an animal or object at closing, movement is stopped and then repeated. Device automatically switches off in the case of motor overload.
- Built-in time delay on the light sensor prevents unwanted opening during storms or unexpected brightening.

How to Use
To supply the device with the power it requires, connect either the power pack to the device and plug it into a mains socket or insert the battery into the device. You can also choose both supply methods to be prepared for a power failure. The batteries are already installed inside the device. Connect battery connection wires to the corresponding plug.
External Switch (sold separately) can be mounted up to 16 ft away from the Poultry Door for a more convenient manual opening and closing of the door. See photos showing how to install the wires to the housing.

Worked great for about a month, then the cheap string broke. About 2 weeks later, the controller failed. Premier 1 stood behind their product and sent me a new controller, but that one was also defective. They are giving me a refund.

OMG best chicken item purchase EVER!!! Makes chicken mom duties so much easier! No putting chickens away at night or letting out in the morning.

I always thought I didn’t need a door but finally decided to get it for when I went out of town. It’s the best! So easy to set up and program. I got one for my ducks and they love going out in the morning, but haven’t learned to go back to the coop yet. Will be getting one more for my teenage chicken coop. Highly recommend!

We have had it up about a week now. It was very easy to install and program. It is a sturdy product and so far has worked very well.
