Built Different From Day One.
We've spent over a decade refining ADOR products. Every decision we make is focused on building a chicken door you can depend on for years.
For more than 15 years, we've focused on building one product—and building it well. The ADOR is designed to protect your flock every night with a secure steel door, dependable daylight-sensing technology, and durable all-metal construction.
Every unit is assembled and supported in Texas, where you'll also find the engineer behind the product answering customer questions. And because we believe quality products should last, replacement parts are always available to keep your ADOR working for years to come.

Built by an Engineer. Trusted by Chicken Owners.
Keeping chickens shouldn't mean rushing home before sunset, or waking up early and traipsing outside in the cold. Keeping chickens shouldn't have you worrying about predators every night.
That's why I built the ADOR.
With a long career in electronic product development, I set out to create an automatic chicken door that simply worked—no timers to constantly adjust, no strings or cables to wear out, just dependable engineering built around the way chickens naturally live.
More than 15 years later, tens of thousands of ADOR doors are protecting flocks across North America. Every unit is still manufactured in our Texas factory, exactly to my design specifications.
And when you call, you'll be talking directly to me.

It Simply Follows the Sun.
There’s nothing to program and no weekly timer adjustments as the seasons change. The ADOR automatically follows natural daylight using the same daylight-sensing technology I patented for deer feeder timers thirty years ago.
Opens at Sunrise
The controller detects natural morning light and opens the door automatically.
Stays Open All Day
Your chickens can safely come and go throughout the day while you focus on everything else.
Locks Shut at Dusk
As daylight fades, the steel door closes securely and locks to help keep nighttime predators out
Engineered to Last. Designed to Be Repairable.
Most automatic chicken doors are treated as disposable. The ADOR isn't.
If a motor eventually wears out, replace the motor. If a control board ever needs replacing, replace the board. There's no reason to throw away an otherwise great product because one component failed.
That's why we continue stocking replacement parts for products we've sold for years. We believe well-engineered products should stay in service. Not end up in the trash.
Add Extra Protection with the ADOR Canopy.
If your coop doesn't have an overhang above the door, the ADOR Canopy helps shield the door from direct rain, snow, and ice. It's a simple upgrade that can improve reliability in harsh weather while helping protect the door from the elements.

Everything You Need to Know
Have a question? Here are the answers to the things we're asked most often.
How long does the battery last?
Most customers get about one year from a standard 6V lantern battery, depending on use and weather conditions.
What happens if a part wears out?
Unlike many automatic chicken doors, the ADOR is designed to be repaired. Replacement motors, control boards, sensors, and other components are available separately to help keep your door in service for years to come.
Can I install it myself?
Yes. The ADOR arrives fully assembled, and most installations take about 30 minutes using basic household tools.
Will it work in winter?
Yes. The ADOR is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 115°F, making it suitable for a wide range of climates.
Can I power it with solar?
Yes. The ADOR can be powered using a simple solar setup with a rechargeable battery. We're happy to recommend the best option for your setup.
