Automatic Door Opener - Which one & How Big?

[kristen2678]

Hi,

Anyone using automatic door openers? Which one? Anyone using them for a larger door? Something Goose sized? Thanks.

I am. Built it with a automatic car antenna motor. Learned it from reading on BYC.

You don't have the link to that conversation do you?

I use the AddAMotor one. I had a piece of metal already for a door. Just needed the motor. It is made for coops.

I bought here: Discount Automation

It was the cheapest store I could find it at. And there is a solar kit for it as well.

We've had it for about 1-1/2 years now and never had a problem with it.

Good luck!
