Da-Lite Advantage Series Ceiling-Recessed Electric Projection Screen — 110" Diagonal

The Da-Lite Advantage Series Ceiling-Recessed Electric Projection Screen delivers a pristine, professional presentation surface with a smart, space-saving design. Engineered for ceiling-trim-in-place installations, this screen conceals rough openings for a clean, architectural look while eliminating post-install trim work. Its two-stage installation option offers unmatched scheduling flexibility: mount the recessed case during ceiling work and finish the screen surface later, helping contractors streamline projects in classrooms, corporate meeting spaces, training rooms, and home theaters. Built with a plenum-rated case, it meets stringent safety and code requirements for air-handling spaces, making it an ideal choice for commercial environments where reliability, aesthetics, and code compliance matter as much as image quality. The result is a seamless blend of design, performance, and ease of installation that elevates any projection workflow.

• Seamless ceiling integration: The trim-in-place design hides rough openings for a polished, professional look that blends with existing architecture and lighting control.
• Flexible two-stage installation: Install the recessed case during ceiling work and finish the screen surface later, reducing downtime and allowing on-site teams to align with project schedules.
• Plenum-rated construction: A purpose-built case rated for plenum spaces ensures safe operation in air-handling corridors and above-ceiling installations.
• Quiet, reliable electric operation: Smooth, consistent motorized lifting and lowering minimizes distractions during meetings, screenings, and classrooms.
• High-quality projection surface for vibrant images: The 110" diagonal screen uses a matte white surface designed for balanced brightness, accurate color, and wide viewing angles across seating arrangements.

How to install Da-Lite Advantage Series Projection Screen

Installing the Advantage Series begins with careful planning of the ceiling cavity, electrical access, and projector alignment. Because this model is designed for two-stage installation, teams can pre-fit the recessed case within the ceiling structure and complete surface finishing at a later stage, reducing on-site complexity and downtime. Following best practices ensures a precise, durable installation that delivers years of dependable performance.

• Stage 1 — Prepare the ceiling opening and determine plenum clearance: Verify that the rough opening accommodates the recessed case and that there is unobstructed space for the screen mechanism to operate without interference from ductwork or structural members.
• Stage 2 — Install the recessed case securely: Align the case with the room’s projection geometry, anchor it to structural supports, and ensure the opening remains square to avoid misalignment of the screen image.
• Stage 3 — Finish the ceiling trim and concealment: Attach the trim-in-place cover to conceal the rough opening, creating a seamless ceiling line that integrates with the room’s design language.
• Stage 4 — Route power and control wiring: Provide a dedicated 120V circuit, connect to a wall switch or infrared (IR) remote, and verify power, control signals, and safety grounding.
• Stage 5 — Mount the projection surface and test operation: Install the fabric, confirm proper tautness and masking, then lower and raise the screen multiple times to verify smooth operation and alignment with the projector.
