Can you open the Pullet-Door without waiting for the timer?

The Pullet Shut is the largest at 15x11, unless you get the turkey door and I don't want my goose going thru the chicken door.

Thanks for that...honestly, I didn't look closely at it, due to the swing. But you are correct, that is a good size door.

They ship to US

How much did you pay for shipping, do you remember? I'm thinking it will be $50 plus dollars.

The Hentronix is close to $400 with shipping, so that's a bit too steep for me. The ability to use the app is $88...wow.

I took a picture of the magnet and one of my Pullet shut doors. I like them so much that I have one on each of my 2 coops. So far I’ve only had to charge the batteries twice a year so it wasn’t worth it to me to get the solar panels, I just unplug the batteries and charge them in the house overnight.

Thanks so much for the picture! I was visualizing something like a flat magnet which I felt would get lost easily, even in a pocket. I see where you have it stuck up above the door, which is handy. I will probably go with the Pullet-shut door:
It takes up very little room
It has a large opening
I can use it with electricity
I can open it manually

I thought the app came with the door now but I could be wrong. I think I paid around $300 USD about 16 months ago. I like that the door is secure, if a predator manages to get into the run they won't get through the pop door. If the door senses any resistance while opening or closing it will stop. It runs on a solar powered battery. This door was one of the few that work for pop doors that open & close horizontally.

It's nice...and I would've loved the ability to use the app. But it's also a bit huge because it comes with the door attached to a piece of plywood, and I was afraid the guy putting it on might think I was nuts.
