In Australia that is often an advantage — sunrise moves by more than two hours across the year, and a fixed morning hour means the flock is let out at the same time whatever the season. Nudge the times a couple of times a year if you prefer to track daylight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo not rely on it to detect a bird in the doorway.\u003c\/strong\u003e We do not advertise an obstacle sensor on this model, and we ask you to treat it as though it has none. Set the closing time fifteen to twenty minutes after your flock normally goes up to roost, and watch them for the first few evenings until you know their habit. Hens settle before dusk by nature, so a well-chosen closing time is rarely a problem — but choosing it is your job, and we would rather say so than let you find out later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure first.\u003c\/strong\u003e The frame needs a flat vertical surface and roughly 570 mm of clear height above the sill so the panel can lift fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDelivery and returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree shipping anywhere in Australia, tracked.
