Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

This locking device operates automatically in conjunction with your sliding chicken coop door. It does not require manual intervention for locking once installed correctly.

• Аўтаматычная блакіроўка: When the chicken coop door slides down and reaches its fully closed (lowest) position, the internal helical springs within the device will automatically push the locking bolts outwards. These bolts will then engage with the door frame or designated slots on the door, securely locking it in place. This prevents the door from being lifted by predators.
• Аўтаматычная разблакіроўка: When the chicken coop door is lifted (either manually or by an automatic door opener), the upward movement will retract the locking bolts, allowing the door to slide freely upwards.
