Room package builder
Screens, projectors, speakers, seating and acoustics priced live as customers choose, room by room.
Home theatre quoting software & AV package builders
Home theatre installers: let them build the cinema before you do. Spec it once, install it once.
You rebuild the quote every time a customer swaps a speaker. The wiring plan is a sketch in the ute and install day turns up a missing bracket. We build AV package builders, quoting, project and support systems for home theatre businesses. Then we host them and look after them.
Looking for home theatre quoting software or a room-by-room package builder?
Home theatre customers love choosing gear. They'll swap the 7.2 for a 9.4.6, ask about the bigger screen, then add a second zone for the alfresco. Every change means another round of spreadsheet maths and supplier price checks, plus a quote that goes out a week later. Meanwhile pre-wires on new builds are juggled by phone, cable schedules live in someone's head and the system logins for last year's jobs are scattered across texts.
Wollopit builds custom software for home theatre installers around how you actually sell and install. A package builder lets customers pick screens, speakers, seating and automation room by room with live pricing at your margins. It then hands you a specified job. From there the same system tracks pre-wire and fit-off stages, orders the gear and builds the install pack. It also keeps every system record for support down the track. We connect the tools you already use and host and look after the lot.

03The systems
The big ones
Your whole AV business, on one system.
These are the systems home theatre installers ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.
Package builder
Let customers build the cinema with live pricing.
Customers pick a room, choose a package tier and swap screens, speakers and seating with the price updating as they go. When they're happy it lands with you as a specified job instead of a vague enquiry.
- Room-by-room builder
- Good, better and best tiers
- Live pricing at your margins
- Only gear you stock and support
- Side-by-side package comparison
- Add-ons for lighting and automation
- Room size and seating prompts
- Saved builds customers can come back to
- Embedded on your website
- Enquiries land as specified jobs
Quoting & margins
Quotes that reprice themselves.
Your supplier price lists, labour rates and margins sit behind every quote. Change a speaker and the quote updates. Supplier prices move and your margins don't go with them.
- Supplier price list imports
- Margins by brand or category
- Labour and programming rates built in
- Quote versions tracked
- Expiry dates on every quote
- Branded PDF and online quotes
- Online acceptance and deposit
- Margin check before sending
Projects & installs
From pre-wire to calibration, nothing slips.
Every job moves through its stages with the builder's dates, gear orders and tech bookings in one place. Install packs are built straight from the quote so the van leaves with everything it needs.
- Pre-wire, fit-off and commissioning stages
- Builder and designer contacts per job
- Stage reminders before trades move in
- Purchase orders from the quote

- Cable schedules and labels
- Speaker and screen positions
- Rack layouts with photos
- Device list with serial numbers
- IP addresses and network details
- Secure logins with access control
- Remote and control setup notes
- Warranty dates per device

- Support requests logged per site
- Full install history on every call
- Remote support notes
- Service plans with automatic billing
- Annual check-up reminders

07How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your home theatre business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We sit in on a sales meeting and an install, then work out where the quoting, ordering and paperwork is slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your product range, margins, packages, job stages, documentation, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the package builder or quoting first, so you get a win before your next big job.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
08Questions
FAQ
Things home theatre installers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can it include our brands and margins?
Yes. The builder uses your product range, supplier pricing and margins. Anything you don't stock stays hidden.
Can customers use the package builder on our website?
Yes. It sits on your website so customers can build a room in their own time. You get the enquiry as a specified job ready to quote.
Can it handle new builds with builders and designers involved?
Yes. Jobs can track pre-wire, fit-off and commissioning against the builder's dates, with reminders before each stage and contacts for everyone involved.
We already use simPRO or D-Tools. Do we have to switch?
No. If your job management or design tools are doing their job we build around them: the package builder, portal and website on top. If something is holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.
Is it safe to store system logins and network details?
Yes. System records are secured with access control so only the right people on your team can see sensitive details.
How much does a home theatre system like this cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
How long does it take?
Smaller pieces like a package builder or install packs can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most home theatre installers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
