Budget-Friendly Motorized Projector Screen Descends From Home Theater Ceiling

Overview

  • Screen retracts completely into ceiling when not in use
  • Included switch lowers and raises projector screen at the press of a button
  • High-quality screen yields uniform light distribution for optimal picture

Essential Info

If you're installing a new home theater system and are on a budget, you don't need to give up your dreams of a projection screen that descends from the ceiling when needed but remains completely out of sight when not in use. The 45 x 80 Ceiling-Mount 16:9 Projection Screen is a 92-inch diagonal motorized screen that's friendly to your wallet but still produces an outstanding picture.

The 45 x 80 Ceiling-Mount 16:9 Projection Screen consists of a matte white vinyl reflective surface laminated to a rugged woven fiberglass base material. This base textile provides superior "lay flat" characteristics and tear resistance. The 1.1 gain surface provides a 180-degree viewing cone and requires no tensioning. The projector screen features extremely uniform light distribution, resisting hot spotting and color shifting and making it ideal for any room with controlled ambient light. The screen fabric is washable, fire retardant and mildew resistant.

Due to excessive weight, Smarthome will add a heavy-item shipping charge to this item. This charge will be reflected in the shipping amount on the check-out page.

    Included with the projector screen is a wall-mounted electric switch for manually raising and lowering the screen. The three positions (Up, Down, and Stop) allow you to position the screen at any level. The switch mounts in any single-gang electrical box and is connected to the screen's motor with 3-conductor 14 gauge 120-volt cable. A single-gang wall plate is included.

    For the ultimate in aesthetics, install this unit flush with the ceiling. A trapdoor neatly conceals the screen and mechanism. When the mechanism is activated, the trapdoor opens and the screen drops down. The motor is mounted inside the assembly on special rubber vibration insulators; operating noises are dramatically reduced and the motor runs smoothly and silently, even after years of service. The motor features internal thermal overload protector and electric brake, and its gears are lifetime lubricated.

    The case is made from 3/4-inch warp-resistant composition wood. The wiring compartment is completely metal lined to meet the strictest building codes, and the bottom of the case is fully enclosed by two panels, mounted with a full-length continuous hinge. One panel opens and closes automatically as screen operates while the second panel opens manually for access to electrical connections, limit switches and screen surface.

    To automate your new screen, get a Low-Voltage Interface kit (sold separately). Using a contact closure from an automation system or a projector's relay output, this kit enables automated screen movements, such as triggering the screen to lower when the projector is powered and retracting when the projector is turned off. The control unit is also equipped with jacks for easy connection to an IR receiver module (sold separately as part of the IR remote control kit).

    Additional sizes are available; wall-mounted motorized projection screens are also available.
