Well worth the $$. Takes away the worry of your chickens being safely closed in at night. The WiFi feature also lets us control the unit when out of town which is awesome as well. Highly recommend.

The door has worked excellent! I have it connected to the internet, but have it automatically open every morning, I close at night when all the birds are in. I highly recommend this, worth the investment.

It is so refreshing to call a company and be able to talk to someone who knows the product inside out and can immediately help you with any question or problem you may have. The customer service is by far the best I’ve ever experienced from any company. Thank you Coop Tender for a great product and standing behind it.

I love it. Had a few complications due to my WiFi where I live. Jim’s knowledge and kindness has helped me throughout my process! My only complaint as of now would be that an instruction manual needs to be provided for $800.00. I ordered my panels for the heating, so we shall see how everything works out for the price. When everything comes in I’ll have them contact Jim. He definitely knows what he’s doing.

I like the peace of mind it gives at night. If I get home late I know they are secure.

The girls love their new automatic door and no longer have to wait for me to let them out! They are ducking under the door while it’s halfway up at dawn 😊. The product is very well built and functions like clockwork. Solar panel has kept the battery charged. Internet connection is very cool but slightly cumbersome to navigate. I highly recommend this product

After having lost several chickens to predators, I purchased the coop tender. While it costs quite a bit, at $25 a hen it does not take too many losses to offset the purchase. The installation was easy. We already had electricity to our coop. Once the door was installed, it was just “plug and play”. Now they just need to make a dusk to dawn door for a chicken feeder to keep the rodents out of the feed.

Love the capabilities. Working flawless so far. Attached two heating panels (attached to wall in coop - well below max watt/amp draw) set to 40F. Have. It used the fan/light option. For lights I use Philips Hue. Will add fans next summer and maybe a mini AC for the coop.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my wife. At first she was a little leary because of the IT aspect of the door. After a few days of use, it quickly became apparent that it is was a great purchase and should have purchased this a long time ago. She can control the door remotely from her phone no matter where she is - of course you need cellular reception. I installed a camera inside the coop so she can count the chickens to ensure they are all in safe and sound at night. She is able to let them out in the morning without having to walk out to the coop and put them to bed remotely from work every day before coming home. The install was super easy and I haven't had any issues with the door so far. As some other customers have said it is expensive but well worth the investment. The only surprise I had as a Canadian customer and no fault to Chicken Coop was having to pay brokerage fees to UPS. I paid an extra $173.82 CAD on top of the cost for the door which broken down was $80.09 CAD for taxes and $93.73 brokerage fees to UPS. I contacted Coop Tender and they informed me that UPS charges two brokerage fee charges, one to the vendor and one to the customer. So if you are a Canadian customer like me, plan to pay a little extra for brokerage fees.
Bottom line, I would buy another one even with the added brokerage fees !

Very happy with the purchase as the door works very well, was easy to install, and is fairly easy to operate. Worth spending the extra money relative to cheaper alternatives. I didn’t realize nice an automatic door would be. The extra money spent for a reliable product is worth the peace of mind.

Installed this on a newly built coop. Has been in use for about a week now (so i cant speak for durability, but certainly feels very sturdy). Fairly easy install. Super reliable and the chickens have had zero issues with it. I was worried that there is no delayed re-opening in case any of the chickens weren't inside by dusk (as some other doors offer), but the door moves slowly and all the chickens are inside well before the door closes. No concern about predators with this door. All in all, very happy with this purchase despite the price tag. I may upgrade to the wi-fi connectivity if I eventually have wi-fi signal where the coop is located.

I've had to do some repairs to my old door due to age and weather. Great product as well as customer service.

This product is great and the set-up is easy. I was looking specifically for an automatic door with WiFi functionality. The Coop Tender door is a really well built product and the WiFi functionality has great features and operates seamlessly. I also installed a nanny cam, so when I get the door closing alert I can count the chickens.

Part worked as expected. I cannot say enough good about this company. I have had my automatic door opener for 4 years and they have been so helpful! So quick to respond to my questions. Customer service “after the sale” is often nonexistent these days, but not with this company. They answer emails within 1 day. I highly recommend Coop Tender!

It’s expensive - let’s just get that out of the way - but there is a reason for it. It installs in around a half hour and it’s completely turn key. You can mess with it, but honestly, the defaults are fine for me. Install it. Power it. Then go on vacation with piece of mind.

It was the best investment I ever made for the chickens they’re all inside before dark and the door closes

This door and all the accessories were expertly designed and worth every penny. The installation was easy and setup was a breeze. My chickens needed zero training. I have the door set to open at dawn and close 30 minutes after sunset. Works flawlessly every single time.
The predator detector is cool too and works great and all of the accessories such as fans, heaters and lights all work great. The wifi antenna works from inside the coop and is about 35’ from my house and my WiFi router is in an interior room.
Can’t ask for a better setup! It allows me, a small-time backyard chicken farmer, to have the freedom to go away on vacations with complete peace of mind that my chickens are inside and safe when they’re supposed to be and outside free-ranging in their covered run with electric fence during the day. Thank you so much Coop Tender!!! It sure beats getting up at the crack of dawn rear-round!!! However, I still constantly check my chicks day and night and a million times in-between, but there’s no more rush to get out there in ****** weather! Epic!!!

I was waffling back and forth on this purchase, really glad I did. It's been rock solid. Love being able to check things, especially the battery via web browser. Added a wireless 'coopcam' camera and I can now remotely manage the flock from anywhere.

This chicken door was EXACTLY what I was looking for. It was so easy to set up I couldn't believe it. It is very sturdy and has worked perfectly from day one!

I design a lot of things in SolidWorks and try to make as good a product as I can by not scrimping on key issues. That way I won’t have to come back and fix it later.
After buying a less expensive Chinese door that was problematic out of the box, I decided to “bite the bullet” and buy the more expensive Coop Tender. Glad I did! Works well, has more features than all the other doors (put together probably) and looks like it will last a long time.
Wish is was painted but I fully understand that an unpainted door has a lot more flexibility including allowing for staining or whatever.
Highly recommend this door!

The door is well built, arrived quickly and was easy to install. Having the door open and close automatically makes life so much easier and the chickens much happier not having to wait for us to let them out! It also keeps us from having to go out in inclement weather. We decided to get the wifi module after some of our hens occasionally weren’t going in when they should. I’m not technologically inclined so I called customer service and Jim talked me through the installation and he has been very helpful with any of our questions. Our coop is amongst the trees and has a roof over about 20’ of their run making it very shady. The door would sometimes close before all of the girls were in so I decided to change it from “dusk to dawn” to “schedule” to make sure it is really dark when it closes. Problem solved! The coop is about 75' from our house and with a high intensity flashlight we can check to make sure all of the girls are safely tucked in bed from the comfort of our house before we go to bed each night. It gives us peace of mind to have “safe happy hens”. Thank you Coop Tender and Jim!

Door is well made, operates as advertised. WiFi worked well, necessary, as our coop is 150' from out home, and no line of sight.
Wish you could export historical status, daylight, temperature data. IFTTT connectivity would be nice.
Looked at many WiFi doors, this was the best for us. No problems getting email support.
