Automatic or manual, we can custom cut/fit a door to your chicken coop and install it or ship it to you. These doors give you the option to have your flock safe in the run or henhouse when needed and able to free range without leaving the large door open.
*We also offer automatic chicken doors that can be set to certain times.
Chicken run doors are a great option for those who like to let their flock free range.
We have both manual and automatic chicken door options for our Carolina Coop and American Coop. Our manual chicken run doors are $100. They are a wood framed door with a spring loaded latch and hook and eye closure.
If you want an automatic chicken door, you need to have it framed out on your chicken coop.
We can do this when we build your coop, just select the “Automatic run door *framed out w/Chicken Guard Premium (+$389)” option on the coop form. This automatic chicken door is self-locking, so predators can’t lift it up!
You can also frame it out yourself on your existing coop and purchase the Chicken Guard© Premium Kit from our accessories page.
The automatic chicken run doors can be either set to open and close to a timer or set for dawn to dusk through a light sensor. No more worrying about whether or not you locked up your chickens at night, or getting up early to let them free range.
Our henhouse chicken door is most common on our chicken coops without runs, such as the Penthouse Coop. The doors can be closed and locked at night after your flock has gone into roost, then re-opened in the morning to roam.
With our chicken coops with runs and a predator apron, there is no need for a henhouse door. However, we find some people want it for added protection from the winter winds, or just for an added peace of mind against predators.
