Motorise Your Existing Blinds Central West – No Replacement Required

Across the Central West of New South Wales (NSW), from Mount Panorama to the Wellington Caves, homeowners are increasingly choosing DIY electric blinds to suit a region defined by its wide open plains, inland climate, and noticeable seasonal temperature shifts. Designed for heritage homes, farmhouses, modern family homes, and regional residences, electric blinds adapt naturally to rural landscapes and four-season conditions, helping manage light and comfort throughout the year. This approach aligns with the Central West’s practical, country-style lifestyle, offering simple, reliable control that fits seamlessly within close-knit regional towns and surrounding local communities, while allowing households to motorise existing blinds without replacing what they already have.

Configured Correctly Before It Ships

Each DIY electric blind system we supply is matched to your existing blind before dispatch. We confirm compatibility, help you choose the correct motor and components, and pre-configure everything before it leaves us so installation is simple and stress-free. At no extra cost.

Electric Blinds Designed for DIY & Retrofit

Most electric blinds in Central West are sold as “professional install only”, forcing full blind replacements, builder involvement, and unnecessary costs. We take a different approach. Our electric blind systems are purpose-built for DIY installation and clean retrofitting into existing roller blinds, supplied pre-configured to your blind so there’s no wiring, no trial-and-error, and no upselling. You get the convenience of motorised blinds without replacing what already works — backed by real phone support to make sure everything fits and functions correctly the first time.

  • DIY-friendly installation — simple, clean setups designed for retrofit and DIY
  • Retrofit into existing roller blinds — no blind replacement required in most cases
  • Pre-configured motors and components — matched to your blind before delivery
  • Flexible motor options available — suited to different homes and setups
  • Professional support throughout — guidance before and after purchase to ensure a smooth install

Matching Your Existing Central West Roller Tube

To ensure the correct motor and components are supplied, we match everything to your existing roller tube size. If you’re unsure what tube you have, a quick photo is all that’s needed.

Simply take a clear photo of the top roller tube with a ruler or tape measure placed across it and send it to us. This allows us to identify the tube size and select the correct motor, drive, and fittings for your blind.

We use this information to:

  • Confirm compatibility with your existing blind
  • Match the correct motor and components
  • Assemble the motor and components before it is supplied
  • Avoid guesswork, delays, or incorrect parts

This process makes retrofitting straightforward and ensures your DIY installation is smooth from the start.

Battery vs 240V Electric Blind Motors

DIY electric blinds are available with rechargeable battery motors or 240V hard-wired motors. The right option depends on your blind size, setup, and how you want the system installed.

Battery motors are the most popular DIY choice. They require no electrician, install cleanly into existing blinds, and are ideal for retrofits and everyday home use.

240V motors are typically used for larger or heavier blinds or where permanent power is preferred. We supply the correct motors and cabling, however any 240V wiring to the premises must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with Australian regulations.

If you’re unsure which option is right, we’ll advise on the correct motor based on your blind size, weight, and installation requirements — ensuring everything works properly from day one.
