Recommendations

Door is binding at the
top. There isn’t
clearance to insert it
into the slide rails.

First confirm that the Door Rails are
positioned properly. All Rails should be
level with the ground. The bottom rail
should be flush with the floor, the middle
rail should be flush with the middle Core
Square. The top rail (only one side of coop)
should be flush with the top of the posts
(its top edge 48” off the ground).

There must be at least 22” of clearance
between the “troughs” of the Upper and
Middle Rails. For the Lower and Middle
Rails the clearance must be at least 19”.

Try rotating the door (flip 180 degrees), or
try the door on the other side of the coop
(for Lower doors only).

In some cases high humidity can cause the
wood to expand. Use a hand plane, or a
power sander, to remove material from
the top or bottom of the door frame (not
the Rails).

Door appears too thick,
and won’t fit into the
slot of the slide rails.

Confirm that the issue is with the door
thickness and not the wooden weather
stripping (see below).

In some cases high humidity can cause the
wood to expand. Use a hand plane, or a
power sander, to remove material from
the face (flat part) of the door frame (not
the Rails). Focus on the portion of the
frame that touches the outer Rail.
