The Da-Lite Cinema Contour 137" Fixed Frame Projection Screen elevates home theater visuals with a robust, performance-driven design. Built around a wider, more substantial frame, this screen pairs a premium edge with Da-Lite’s latest projection surfaces, engineered specifically for 4K and Ultra HD content. The result is a cinematic experience that honors the integrity of the original film while delivering striking brightness, accurate color, and deep contrast. With a generous 137" diagonal, it creates an immersive viewing environment suitable for dedicated home theaters, media rooms, classrooms, and presentation spaces. The fixed-frame construction provides a clean, professional appearance that stays visually quiet during non-screen moments, and the surface is optimized to showcase sharp detail and natural grayscale across a wide range of projectors. Whether you’re streaming in HDR, gaming in 4K, or presenting in a classroom, the Cinema Contour turns any room into a true cinema, blending advanced technology with a timeless, elegant aesthetic.
- Designed for supreme contrast and depth: The wider, substantial black frame functions as a precise reference edge, which enhances perceived contrast and makes shadows appear deeper. This border also helps absorb stray light near the screen periphery, reducing glow and ensuring a more faithful reproduction of dark scenes and intricate textures. Filmmakers and cinephiles alike will notice a more immersive image where blacks look richer and colors stay truer to the source, even in rooms with controlled lighting.
- 4K and Ultra HD ready projection surface: The Cinema Contour surface is engineered to maximize the benefits of modern high-resolution projectors. It delivers crisp, film-like details, reduced visible screen-door effect, and accurate color reproduction, ensuring HDR content looks vibrant without oversaturation. The surface is designed to maintain brightness and tonal balance across the full color gamut, so viewers experience faithful skin tones, nuanced shadows, and bright highlight detail from all viewing angles.
- Immersive 137" diagonal size for powerful viewing: The 137" size creates a cinema-scale image that improves immersion in medium-to-large rooms while preserving image fidelity. Whether you place it in a dedicated theater or a multi-purpose living area, the expansive display fills the field of view for a truly cinematic feel. The 16:9 format aligns with contemporary video standards, making it ideal for streaming 4K content, Blu-ray titles, and gaming in a home theater setup or classroom presentation.
- Fixed-frame ease with clean aesthetics: The Cinema Contour’s fixed-frame design delivers a rigid structure that remains square and true over time. The frame’s straight edges and black border create a crisp visual boundary, which helps center your projection and prevents warping or sagging. Installation is straightforward on a vertical wall, and the frame contributes to a contemporary look that blends with modern interiors; it hides the mounting hardware for a neat, professional presentation space.
- Durability, maintenance, and long-term value: Crafted for frequent use, the fixed-frame screen resists creasing and wear, maintaining a pristine surface over years of use. The frame materials and edge trim are designed to withstand routine cleaning and handling, while the projection surface remains stable and flat for reliable image quality. This combination of durability and performance makes the Cinema Contour a smart investment for homes, schools, and venues that demand consistent, high-quality projection with minimal upkeep.

How to Install Da-Lite Cinema Contour 137" Fixed Frame Projection Screen
- Prepare the wall: Choose a smooth, level wall surface. Locate wall studs and mark the positions to align the frame. Ensure the mounting area is clean and dry before beginning installation.
- Unpack and inspect: Remove packaging carefully and verify that all frame segments, hardware, and the projection surface are intact. Report any damage to the supplier immediately.
- Position the frame: With at least two people, hold the frame against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to confirm that the frame is perfectly vertical and square, as this will influence image alignment and border precision.
- Secure the frame: Mark drill holes through the frame’s mounting points. Drill pilot holes, insert wall anchors if needed, and attach the frame securely with the provided hardware or compatible wall-mount screws. Ensure all fasteners are tight without over-tightening.
- Check alignment and surface: Once the frame is mounted, verify that the screen surface is taut and uniformly flat. minor adjustments may be required to ensure edge alignment with the frame’s border and to prevent any bowing or sagging over time.
- Install projectors and seating: Mount or position your projector at the recommended throw distance for the 137" diagonal screen. Calibrate keystone, focus, and color settings for HDR and 4K content. Arrange seating to maintain an optimal viewing distance that suits your room and audience size.
- Final adjustments and care: Perform a final check for level, border alignment, and image geometry. Clean the screen surface with a dry microfiber cloth if needed. Periodically inspect mounting hardware and frame integrity to maintain peak performance over the years.
