How to Install Da-Lite Model C 164.1" Manual Projection Screen

  • Plan your installation by choosing whether a ceiling or wall mount best fits your room layout and projector placement. Ensure there is ample clearance above the screen for full travel and smooth operation.
  • Prepare the mounting surface. Locate studs for a secure ceiling or wall mount, or use appropriate anchors if mounting to a masonry surface. Verify that the surface can support the combined weight of the screen housing and its operation over time.
  • Attach mounting brackets. Align the brackets with the projector line and level them precisely. Use a laser level or traditional spirit level to ensure the mounting plane is perfectly horizontal to prevent image keystone over time.
  • Hang the screen housing. Secure the roller housing to the brackets with the correct hardware, ensuring a tight, vibration-free connection. Double-check that all fasteners are tightened to the manufacturer’s recommended torque to prevent movement during operation.
  • Test the retract mechanism. Gently pull the screen down and then retract it, listening for any binding or rubbing. If needed, adjust the brackets or frame alignment to achieve smooth, frustration-free operation across the full travel length.
  • Align and finalize. Set the screen so the top edge is level and at the optimal height for projector alignment and audience sightlines. Confirm that the projection surface is perpendicular to the projector’s beam and that the image fills the screen without distortion.
