Upgrading the Chicken Coop with Worlds First Automatic Locking Door!
What happens here
The host measures the length of the door track system, which is approximately 24 inches. He then cuts two 24-inch pieces of treated 2x4 lumber for the vertical sides of the frame and a 12-inch piece for the top cross member. Treated wood is chosen for its weather resistance, and the host assures that modern treated wood is safe for chickens. He pre-drills pilot holes and secures the frame pieces together using deck screws, forming a 'U' shape for the door to be mounted within.
Goal: This step details cutting treated lumber to create a custom frame for the automatic chicken door and assembling it using deck screws.
