My run is complete as is the coop... or that's what I thought. My pop door is on a hinge and it is REALLY a pain to open and close.. and secure with a lock. So, I need to make it into a pop door with a pulley. My problem is, I want it to lock and I don't want to crawl into the run every night and morning since it's low.
I plan to have the pop door slide on the inside of the coop rather than the outside.... but can't a raccoon just push it up if it isn't locked? I keep looking at other coops and they don't seem to have a lock on them.
So, this photo isn't the best but you get the idea. You can see the ladder and it leads to the pop door. I can't have pop door slide up from the outside due to the run which is attached. That's why I have to build the door sliding up the Inside of the coop.
