Simple to build DIY Modular Stable Kits
We designed our modular stable kits with one clear goal: make it simple to build a stable that’s tough enough for Aussie horses, practical for real rural properties, and easy enough to install on a weekend.
| Feature | Traditional Custom Stable | Guerilla Steel DIY Modular Kit |
|---|---|---|

Tools You Need (Spoiler: You Probably Already Have Them)
Don’t worry, you won’t need a trailer full of tradie gear to build your stable. Most of what you need is already in your shed or garage. Here’s the basic kit:
- Cordless drill with socket bits – for fastening panels and roof sections.
- Level and tape measure – to make sure everything lines up square and straight.
- Socket wrench – for tightening up fixings and securing joins.
- Gloves, boots, and a ladder – safety first, especially when working at height for roof install.
That’s it. If you’ve got a mate and half a day free, you’re well on your way to a finished stable. No special tools, no welding, no hassle.

Built for Easy Delivery & Pick-Up
One of the biggest wins with our 2.4m high stable kits? They fit in most delivery trucks. That means no oversize loads, no special transport permits, and no blown-out freight bills. Whether you’re getting your kit delivered across the state or hiring a flatbed trailer and picking it up yourself from our QLD workshop, it’s all doable, simple, and surprisingly fast. The modular sections are designed for safe loading, transport, and handling on site without needing a crane or full crew.
Less hassle. More control. And your stables, where you want them, sooner.
DIY Site Prep – Get The Full Checklist
Site prep might not be glamorous, but it’s the foundation of a long-lasting stable. A properly prepared base keeps your structure level, improves drainage, speeds up install, and prevents costly issues like shifting, sagging, or pooling water.
Whether you’re building on grass, gravel, or concrete, investing in compact, well-drained ground upfront ensures your stable stays strong, safe, and functional for years. It’s 30% of the job, but solves 90% of future problems.
If you want, check out the full site preparation and planning guide get the downloadable Site Prep Checklist below.
Here are the Site Prep Basics,
- Firm, level ground (road base, grass, or concrete slab)
- Good drainage (avoid pooling)
- Optional but highly recommended anchors for extra wind protection
Install your Bay in a Day
You don’t need a builder’s crew. Just a mate, a drill, and some time.
- Lay out the base and align panels
- Fix joints and corner wall panels (ply and mesh).
- Secure the roof trusses and sheets
- Install stall gates and hardware
- Double-check fixings for safety
That’s it. Most builds take 6, 8 hours with 2 people.
