Description

The Brinsea ChickSafe Eco is a tough and reliable system for automatically opening your hen house door in the morning and closing your hen house door as light levels drop in the evening, keeping your birds safe giving you peace of mind.

The ChickSafe Eco is battery powered (supplied) and easy to fit to any hen house with a vertical sliding door (visit www.brinsea.co.uk/chicksafe-door-setup for details). Simply fix two screws into your hen house (supplied) and attach the cord to your existing door. No manual calibration is necessary: the ChickSafe Eco automatically adjusts to the height of your hen house door.

The ChickSafe Eco is tough and can raise and lower any vertical door from 300 grammes to 4 Kg in weight. It works by detecting lowering light levels as night falls and closes the hen house door, as light levels increase in the morning the door is automatically opened. The sensitivity of the falling light level is user adjustable and the software looks for slow changes in light so isn't affected by car headlights at night, for example. The Brinsea ChickSafe Eco has an indicator to show that the door is open, closed, battery low or fault alert. It features 'auto-stop' if a chicken is obstructing the door.

Comes supplied with the ChickSafe space-saving, 2-stage Hen House Door. All parts are designed to withstand external conditions. The durable, black uPVC rails screw to your hen house and the aluminium door panels drop in. Full fitting instructions are supplied.

Brinsea's door openers are weatherproof, work in extreme weather conditions and are made from UV resistant materials.

Like all Brinsea's products, the ChickSafe Eco has a FREE 3 year guarantee, subject to online registration.

Works just great - takes a little setting-up in a dark run...

Posted by Nick Cheetham on 11/03/2023

As a new backyard chicken owner, I wanted to avoid relying on neighbours too much for coop opening and closing when I'm away for a day or so. This door is easy to install and the instructions are very clear. Except perhaps for one point - my coop has a solid roof over the door and start of the run. I initially installed the device under the roof but found that the light levels were insufficient to reliably operate the door opening and closing despite adjusting the light sensitivity. I re-installed on the outside wall of the coop with an extended cord run through brass eye hooks (as an alternative to pulleys) and voila! Works perfectly now.
