Da-Lite Fast-Fold Deluxe 203.6" Projection Screen

The Da-Lite Fast-Fold Deluxe 203.6" Projection Screen is the premier portable solution for professional rentals, staging, and event venues. Engineered to deliver a pristine, wrinkle-free image in high-traffic environments, this square-format screen combines a rugged, transport-ready frame with a large projection surface that maximizes viewing area while minimizing setup time. Designed for quick deployment and efficient tear-down, it’s the trusted choice for production houses, schools, corporate events, and touring shows that demand reliability, consistency, and superb image quality from one rental to the next.

• Large square-format image for maximum viewing area: With a 1:1 aspect ratio, the screen surface presents a true square image that fills the viewing field with minimal wasted space. The surface measures 144" high by 144" wide, delivering an expansive 203.6" diagonal that ensures audiences in mid-sized to large rooms experience vivid, edge-to-edge detail with compelling brightness and uniformity. This square format is particularly advantageous for data-rich presentations, multi-panel slides, and cinematic content where aspect fidelity matters most.
• Rugged, production-grade construction for repeated use: The Fast-Fold Deluxe frame is built to withstand the rigors of frequent assembly and disassembly common in rental and staging environments. Its durable materials and precise engineering resist flex and sag, maintaining a flat, wrinkle-free projection surface across multiple setups. When folded for transport, the assembly folds neatly into a compact carrying case, protecting the frame and surface during shipping between venues.
• Efficient setup and teardown with easy-release latches: A standout feature of the Fast-Fold Deluxe system is the practical easy-release latch mechanism embedded in the frame. These latches unlock quickly to expand the frame, then securely lock to hold the surface under tension during use. This design minimizes labor time and reduces the risk of misalignment during assembly and tear-down, allowing technicians to stage events with confidence and speed.
• Versatile performance for multiple venue types: Whether used for corporate conferences, trade shows, educational seminars, or live performances, the 1:1 square format accommodates a wide range of content without letterboxing. The generous screen size supports crisp image reproduction from standard projectors at typical throw distances, while the square surface makes it easier to align with stage sightlines and audience seating. The surface is designed to maintain color accuracy and uniform brightness, delivering professional results in bright venue lighting or controlled projection environments.
• Portable storage and travel-friendly design: The Fast-Fold Deluxe system is designed for transport between venues, with a compact folded profile and protective case that guards the screen during shipment. The streamlined footprint reduces storage space requirements in rental houses and production trailers, simplifying inventory management and reducing handling risks. This makes the 203.6" screen an economical choice for operations that rotate gear across locations while still delivering high-impact projection quality.
