Hey there!
We got an automatic coop door this past summer and it was working great, however, now that winter is here and the sun is lower in the sky in the northeast, we are having issues with the door having enough light in the morning to open. It closes at night fine but for some reason the light in the morning is an issue.
The coop door is on the north side of the structure which looking back now, is definitely a design flaw. We really don’t want to reconstruct or move the door, does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue?
One idea I had was to place some sort of mirror or reflective material in a way that directs light that way, but I’m not sure if that’ll really work. Please let me know any ideas on this issue you may have!
