These Run Chicken doors are cheap Chinese copy-cats in similar appearance to our ADOR doors and they also copied the ADOR drive. We innovated the Sprocket drive in 2012 and were the only ones with that design until the foreign companies somewhat copied it about 6 years later. My advice to those who have bought one of those foreign cheap doors is please come to AdorStore.com. Please consider replacing it when the Run Chicken fails because as far as I know they do not have replacement parts or repair options. I sometimes get phone calls from people who bought the foreign stuff who say they were given AdorStore phone number for customer service. But that's OK -- it gives me an opportunity to learn about the issues with the cheap product and to tell them about our door. We have replacement parts and accessories for the ADOR doors, online.T50 Run Chicken for me. It's most similar design to the Ador vs others, but cheaper
I am happy to say we usually had over the years most battery reports of lasting well over one year and even more than 2 and as much as 3 years. Then a few years ago there were lots of phone calls about bad batteries, to the extent we have been selling the ADOR1 and ADOR2 with free battery included, so that a new customer doesn't go buy a bad battery and think it is the fault of the door. We have found a good source of batteries and we test them on our own tester we made, that tests the battery under loaded conditions. So if anyone has difficulty finding good lantern batteries, we sell excellent 6 volt lantern batteries.i also have the ADOR1 and highly recommend it. runs on a 6v lantern battery. i've had mine 2 years and have changed the battery once!
Stay away from Hentronix! Door is okay, customer service bad beyond belief!I'm choosing the automatic door for our chicken coop, I've seen different models, different prices and features.
Which one do you recommend me?
Thank you all
Very good to know! We have frequent power outages in our rural area, so I'd feel safer with a battery-operated door. Don't want the ladies trapped inside or out when PG&E goes down again...I also have the ADOR1 door and highly recommed it. runs on a 6V lantern battery. i've had my door 2 years with no problems and have changed the battery once
Adding a solar trickle charger would be a good idea too.Very good to know! We have frequent power outages in our rural area, so I'd feel safer with a battery-operated door. Don't want the ladies trapped inside or out when PG&E goes down again...
I have this also, but no real experience yet as it’s newly installed. Seems solid and my kids have put it to a good testing playing around with it.T50 Run Chicken for me. It's most similar design to the Ador vs others, but cheaper
Thanks, another good idea! And simple, too, always a plus.Adding a solar trickle charger would be a good idea too.
Just make sure you don't buy the cheap knock off. You can tell most of the them because you can see a silhouette of a chicken. Butt it is not supposed to be a silhouette of a chicken. The depiction is the shape of the creators home country(or ancestry) of Slovenia. I am guessing that the people making the knock off either think it is supposed to be a chicken or put a chicken so it looks alot like the original and people wouldn't really pay attention. Either way they give themselves away.T50 Run Chicken for me. It's most similar design to the Ador vs others, but cheaper
