A chicken door with app connects the coop door to your smartphone. Via Wi-Fi you set opening times, choose between light sensor and fixed times, and open or close the door at the tap of a button. With us you will find the Kerbl SmartCoop Wi-Fi sets with pulley, the Kerbl Duo Smart and Duo Smart Plus with Wi-Fi control and a matching sliding door. That way you stay on top of your hen house even from a distance.
What the app can do
In the app you can see the current status of the door and change settings without going to the coop. That is handy if you get home later than planned and the hens can stay out longer, or if you want to close earlier after a visit from a fox. In the SmartCoop system you can link further devices such as lighting, sensors or a feeder and control them together. This turns your coop step by step into a well-connected hen house that you can manage comfortably from your sofa.
Wi-Fi range in the garden
The door needs a stable connection to your Wi-Fi router. If the coop is at the far end of the garden, check with your phone beforehand whether the signal reaches it. A repeater or an outdoor access point closes any gaps. Still set up the light sensor or fixed times properly, so the door closes on time even when you are not looking at your phone. The door keeps running on its saved settings even if the Wi-Fi drops out for a while.
Frequently asked questions
What kind of Wi-Fi does a smart chicken door need?
Most smart coop devices connect over the 2.4 GHz band, because it reaches further than 5 GHz. Check in your router settings that this band is switched on.
Can I upgrade an existing chicken door with an app?
If your sliding door runs in a guide, you can often connect a Wi-Fi controller with a pulley to it. That way you keep the existing door and only the drive becomes smart.
Can I see in the app whether all my hens are in the coop?
The app shows you whether the door is open or closed, but not how many birds are inside. If you want to be sure, set the closing time a little after dusk, when the hens are usually already on their perches.
Smart chicken doors with Wi-Fi
A chicken door with app is ideal if your days do not always go to plan. A glance at your phone shows whether the coop door is open or closed, and you can adjust times flexibly. The doors work like other automatic models with a light sensor or fixed times, and the app simply makes them more convenient to use. Sets with a pulley fit many existing coops, while models with a sliding door bring the matching door with them. Before you buy, make sure your Wi-Fi reaches the coop. If you already use other devices from the SmartCoop system, the door fits right in and you can control the coop door, lighting and more together. That way your flock stays safe even when you are away. It gives you freedom in everyday life without compromising on safety for your hens.
