Help! I put in an add-a-motor for my pop door. It worked fantastic for several months. Then one day, I went out and all the girls were stuck in the coop! The string had broken and so the door didn't open. I replaced the string. A week or so later, the replacement string also broke. I restrung it a third time, and moved the motor up to leave a lot of room between the motor and the top of the door, even when it's fully open. As I've watched since then, the door is opened slightly higher each day. Now the top of it is touching the bottom of the motor. I'm sure this is what happened the first (two) times . . . any one else have this problem? Just readjust the string in the morning and adjust the start/stop calipers?
thanks
