Predator Proof Chicken Door -- help needed

[ChickenLove123]

I have the basic coop design planned out. The last detail is how to make my chicken door predator-proof. It'd be great if it could be remotely opened and closed (with a string or whatever), but I will trade convenience for security!

Thank you!

Mine is simple plywood door 3/4 inch , sides up inside wall in grooved 2x lumber guides. opened by pulling cable with pulleys from the ouside. The only advice I have is make sure the door goes down past the bottom of the opening so the preds can not get their claws under it.

Treeman! That's it! Thanks! The last piece of my puzzle seems solved... at least for now!
