Da-Lite Contour Electrol Series Projection Screen – 123" Electric Screen for Wall or Ceiling Mount
Elevate your presentation space or home theater with the Da-Lite Contour Electrol Series Projection Screen. This 123-inch diagonal electric screen combines premium build quality with a refined, contemporary design that fits both corporate environments and upscale residential rooms. The standout feature is its curved aluminum extruded case, which delivers a sleek silhouette that blends seamlessly with modern interior aesthetics while providing durable protection for the screen when not in use. The front cover can be ordered in seven veneer finishes, enabling you to tailor the look to your space—from warm, traditional woods to richer, darker tones that harmonize with contemporary decor. This level of customization makes the Contour Electrol not just a performance product, but a design element that enhances the overall room ambiance. The screen is engineered for flexibility, with wall or ceiling mounting options that adapt to varied room layouts and projector placements. The motorized retraction is designed for smooth, quiet operation, minimizing distractions during presentations and screenings. When extended, the surface remains taut and flat, ensuring geometry stays true to the projector and delivering crisp, uniform image quality across the entire viewing area. When not in use, the screen retracts into the housing, protecting the fabric from dust and wear in high-usage environments. Built to stand up to daily use in classrooms, conference rooms, training facilities, worship spaces, and premium home theaters, the Contour Electrol combines reliability with a premium look that endures through heavy usage and frequent retractions.

How to install Da-Lite Contour Electrol Series Projection Screen
Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper mounting, electrical connections, and projection alignment. The following guidance provides a practical overview to help planning and execution, while encouraging safety and compliance with local codes and manufacturer recommendations.
- Assess the room layout to determine the optimal mounting height and distance from the projector. Consider seating positions to ensure each viewer has a clear line of sight, and verify there is ample clearance for full screen travel without obstruction.
- Choose a mounting surface that can bear the weight of the curved case and fabric. For wall installs, locate sturdy studs; for ceiling installations, anchor to joists or use appropriate structural supports per local building codes.
- Prepare a dedicated power supply for the screen’s motor. Route wiring in accordance with electrical codes, and install a convenient control interface or switch that aligns with room usage and accessibility requirements.
- Attach the mounting hardware to the wall or ceiling, then secure the curved case to the mounting assembly. Use a level to ensure the housing is perfectly plumb, as misalignment can affect projection geometry and fabric tension.
- Mount the projection surface and verify fabric tension and alignment. Ensure the screen sits square to the projector axis to maintain uniform image geometry across the screen.
- Power up and test the retract mechanism. Confirm a smooth rise and return, listen for unusual noises, and inspect the fabric for wrinkles or sagging. Make final micro-adjustments as needed for optimal performance.
