I built one using @KDK1 's concept and it works pretty slick. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/193069/post-your-pop-door-and-lock-pics/70#post_13302929

I'm curious about how @vtchick 's lexan held up too.

so it has worked with the d20? I was thinking of trying to do this with the d20 andca cutting board. Do you think it would work?

I don't know about a cutting board but mine made of wood has worked flawless along with the d20 for 2 years now.

Thanks I did not know how to do that. Have you tried it with an opener?

@kdk1 do you have any simplified plans of the locking system? Do you think it would work with the add a motor d20?

That is great news. I can stretch to afford the d20, but not the fancy ones right now.

That's exactly what I thought also,I figured I could replace it 4 times for the cost of a fancy one.

No, I work from home part time so don't need any automation.

Lucky you. I work 60-65 hours an average week Monday to Friday so while I will have them in as secure a run as I can there a lot of winter days where I come and go with it dark so I want them shut in so I will need it. This neat locking system will be a bonus.

I worked full time for a couple decades or so...was laid off and couldn't find a job, so now I squeak by, but yeah it's kinda nice.

That sounds tough especially in these times. I am glad for full time work, but 55-58 hours is enough. After that it is just hard and there is no time to enjoy my horses, do ministry type stuff, and the other things I work so hard to be able to have. Not to mention chores.
