✅ Check on your opener/closer from anywhere in the world with WiFi

✅ No ongoing costs! The app is free to download for as many users as you need. The only cost is the circuit board which you order here… we’ll cover the server costs 😊

✅ Rename your opener/closer, and control multiple openers/closers from the same app

✅ Cycle the door open/closed without having to scrabble around near the coop, saving you time and saving you from having to bend down in confined areas! This is a really cool feature when showing off your coop and your chickens to friends and family!

✅ Totally customisable opening & closing options. Ask your door to open at a specific clock time in the morning, or ask it to open according to light levels outside. Tell it to open at 6:55am and it will do that exactly. Same options for night closing! Exact time, or light level-based closing. New: ‘Secondary Closing’ option. Closes the door according to your preferences, then opens the door straight away (allowing any party chickens in!). Closes the door a minute or two later!

✅ New: Temperature Near Coop feature. Lets you see how hot/cold it is near your coop (helping you keep them happy).

✅ New: Time Last Opened and Time Last Closed feature. Helps you keep a track of when your opener opened in the morning, or closed at night… for peace of mind.

✅ Set opening/closing strengths. Want your coop door to close a little firmer? Want to back the door strength off a little? No problem! New to the WiFi version: if you want even harder or softer openings than allowed by the ‘Hard, Medium, Soft options, you can download different door ‘packs’ for free and push them to your opener via WiFi. This reprogrammes your opener with these different opening/closing strength values.

✅ Battery/power level checker. Gives you incredibly accurate live and past voltage readings.

✅ Remembers the settings you have chosen, and carries out its tasks even if your phone is switched off. Carries out tasks automatically even if there are WiFi problems!

✅ Amazing new 'Additional Lighting' functionalities! Our 'Additional Lighting' units provides light inside the coop when days get short in the winter, helping to prolong egg laying. You can set the brightness of in-coop lighting (save energy, and adapt the strength of light to the size of your coop), and set a precise time for the light to come on in the morning! Lighting goes off when the coop door opens.

LIGHTING FEATURES:

• Morning lighting (from 1am). Keep your chickens laying through the winter (requires AC/mains/socket power)

• New: ‘Encourage Chickens’ lighting. Turns on the coop light for 5 minutes before the door closes in the evening (works on dusk-based closing, and clock time-based closing too!). Doesn’t require AC/mains/socket power!

• New: 2-minute torch. Turns on the light for 2 minutes, so you have better light to check on your flock at night. Doesn’t require AC/mains/socket power!

✅ Even better cold climate performance for all Hentronix units

✅ No need to set the time on your Hentronix unit when the clocks change (your phone tells your unit the time completely automatically, unlike all other competing units)! Just connect to the door opener the morning after clocks have changed, and the opener will do the rest.

✅ No cheap LCD screen with annoying ‘scrolling’ options (and fiddly push buttons - not ideal when trying to operate in the cold!). This makes the unit more watertight, helping to safeguard your chickens and also your investment in them! Instead, we make use of the amazing high resolution screen already in your iPhone/iPad or Android phone!

✅ Available as an upgrade for all pre-existing Hentronix customers with non-Bluetooth enabled Hentronix units, or ready-installed on a new Hentronix unit if ordering a Hentronix mechanism at the same time.

✅ Perfect for solar-powered units or mains-powered units! New power-saving sleep modes, and push notifications sent to your smartphone when your device wakes up from power-saving mode.

✅ Audible low battery alarm just for good measure, unlike all other competing units! We can hear this from about 150ft away, even with a lot of background traffic noise!

✅ Possible to open and close the door without the app, so if your neighbour is looking after your chickens and doesn’t have an iPhone/iPad, they can control the door manually by cycling the door power. New: you can also give friends/family an extremely secure encrypted code to enable them to control your door too using the app, for free!

✅ Free system updates from time-to-time, downloadable through WiFi with your permission

✅ Can work with Bluetooth only if you don’t have WiFi. This restricts the opener to being controlled within sight distance (around 100m). Functionality like opening/monitoring from anywhere in the world is not possible when only Bluetooth is selected, but it still makes it an amazing addition to your set up for all the other benefits!
