• Premium frame design for a true cinematic look: The Cinema Contour features a wider, more substantial black frame that serves as a visual reference point for your eyes, enhancing perceived contrast and depth. This bold border gives the image “frame perfection,” helping viewers to focus on the picture while adding a refined, theater-quality silhouette to your room. The design is not just cosmetic—it's engineered to improve the overall viewing experience by grounding the image and reducing perceived ambient light spill around the edges. This makes the 106" screen feel larger, more immersive, and more like a real cinema screen, even in non-dedicated spaces.
• 4K and Ultra HD ready projection surface: The Cinema Contour line uses advanced projection surfaces optimized for 4K and Ultra HD content, ensuring crisp detail, smooth gradients, and wide color fidelity. The surface is engineered to minimize hot spots and maintain uniform brightness across the entire image, so 4K HDR content looks natural, cinematic, and true-to-life. With this screen, you’ll notice improved edge sharpness, deeper shadows, and more precise color reproduction, helping your projector reach its full potential even in rooms with varied lighting conditions.
• Designed for dedicated home theaters and versatile media rooms: The Cinema Contour 106" is built to look as impressive as the picture it displays, whether installed in a purpose-built theater space or a multi-purpose family room. Its sturdy frame provides long-term stability and a clean, flush finish that complements modern interior design. The fixed-frame construction minimizes movement and keeps the screen surface perfectly taut for a clean, wrinkle-free image. This makes it ideal for rooms where you want a premium aesthetic paired with top-tier image quality, without sacrificing convenience or ease of maintenance.
• Generous 106" diagonal with an immersive 16:9 aspect: The 106" diagonal delivers a immersive cinematic footprint while maintaining a practical seating distance for most home theaters. The 16:9 aspect ratio aligns with standard consumer content, including movies, TV, and games, ensuring your images are presented as intended by filmmakers and content creators. The size and proportion balance deep immersion with comfortable viewing for families and guests, making it an excellent choice for multi-purpose rooms where viewers sit at varying distances from the screen.
• Durability, ease of maintenance, and secure installation: Built to withstand daily use in active living spaces, the Cinema Contour frame is designed for durability and longevity. The surface remains taut and flat, resisting sag over time, while the frame’s finish protects against scratches and wear. When it’s time for cleaning, you can rely on gentle maintenance methods to preserve brightness and contrast, ensuring your screen continues to look vibrant for years. Additionally, installation is straightforward with standard mounting options, allowing you to mount the screen securely to a wall or ceiling and achieve a precise, level alignment that complements your room’s layout.

How to install Da-Lite Cinema Contour 106" Projection Screen

Installing the Da-Lite Cinema Contour 106" Projection Screen involves careful planning, precise leveling, and secure mounting to ensure long-term performance. Begin by selecting a suitable wall or ceiling location with a clean, unobstructed view path for your projector and seating arrangement. Use a stud finder to identify wall studs or consult your ceiling structure to determine the best mounting points. Safety first: ensure the mounting area can support the combined weight of the fixed-frame screen and any mounting hardware. Measure and mark the intended mounting height so the bottom edge sits at an optimal viewing level for your seating layout. Align the frame with the room’s proportions and install mounting brackets or hardware designed to support fixed-frame screens. Once the frame is securely fastened, position the screen so the frame sits flush against the wall or ceiling without gaps. Double-check that the screen is perfectly level from side to side and from top to bottom, adjusting the hardware as needed. Finally, test the setup by projecting a variety of content—movies, sports, and games—to confirm image alignment, brightness, and color accuracy, making any minor adjustments to seating or projector offset as required. With the Cinema Contour, the goal is a clean, professional installation that delivers a true theater experience while preserving the room’s aesthetic integrity.
