- Fits standard coop pop-holes. Full dimensions are listed in the specifications below, measure before you order.
- Installs in about 10 minutes. One self-contained unit, a screwdriver and the included hardware are all you need.
- 30 days to send it back. If it does not fit your coop or you change your mind, we take it back.
Your coop closes on time. Every night. Whether you remember or not.
Raccoons and foxes do not take nights off. One forgotten latch is all they need. The RoostGuard automatic door removes human error from your evening routine: set the built-in timer once, and the aluminum door closes at dusk and opens again in the morning, day after day.
- Set it once, sleep in forever. The timer is built into the unit itself, no extra remote, no app required. Program it directly on the door.
- Aluminum, not plastic. Door and housing are metal, built to resist prying paws and beaks.
- 10 minute install. One self-contained unit, mounted flat on the coop wall with the included hardware. A screwdriver is all you need.

Honest limits: This unit is timer-controlled, so you should adjust open and close times a few times per season as daylight shifts. Measure your pop-hole before ordering and compare it with the unit dimensions above. Like any coop door, it protects a closed coop: it cannot protect birds that roost outside at night.

The unit measures 36 x 27 x 8 cm (14.2 x 10.6 x 3.1 in) and mounts flat on the coop wall above your pop-hole. Measure your opening and the flat wall space above it before ordering. If it does not fit, our 30-day return policy has you covered.

What if a hen stands in the doorway?
What if a hen stands in the doorway?
The door closes at low speed. As with every coop door, we recommend checking that your flock is inside during the first evenings while your hens learn the new routine.
Do I need to adjust it through the year?
Do I need to adjust it through the year?
Yes, a few times per season. The door is timer-controlled, so as daylight shifts you simply reprogram the open and close times directly on the unit. It takes a few steps and the instructions walk you through it.
