VALUE PROPS

DIY isn't a downgrade — it's a different path

The DIY kit is the same MAB blackout system that gets professionally installed in Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Same blind, same tracks, same motor, same fabric. The only thing that’s different is who puts it in.

If you’re regional, on a tight timeline, comfortable with measuring, or just like doing things yourself — DIY makes sense.

DIY isn't always the right call

DIY works best for standard windows with a single blind under 3 metres, a sufficient reveal depth, and a handy installer. It’s not the right path if:

Frequently Asked Questions!

How long does DIY install take?
Most single-window installs take an afternoon — measuring is the careful part, installing is mechanical. If you’re installing multiple blinds, you’ll get faster with each one.
Standard tools — drill, level, measuring tape, screwdriver. Setup guide includes the full list before you start.
The configurator includes a measurement guarantee option (small fee) — if your measurements come back unworkable, the team helps re-cut. Without the guarantee, re-cuts are at cost. Better to measure carefully the first time.
Setup support is included. The Help Centre has a step-by-step pairing guide, and the team can troubleshoot via phone or video call.
For straightforward single-blind installs (under 3 m, with 90 mm reveal), yes. For wider spans or installs that need frame modification, pro install is safer.
Australia-wide. Standard freight included in the kit price for most metro destinations. Remote and regional locations may carry a freight surcharge — the configurator shows this before checkout.
Around 4 weeks from order to ship, plus freight time depending on your location.
100% money-back guarantee, conditions apply. Confirm conditions with the team before ordering.
