Da-Lite Parallax Projection Screen - Ambient Light Rejected Fixed Frame Screen with Beveled Frame - 120in Screen
Experience cinema-quality visuals in rooms with ambient light thanks to the Da-Lite Parallax Projection Screen. Built around Parallax Pure, an ambient light-rejecting technology, this screen uses a micro-layered optical lens system to block stray light while preserving bright, vivid images. The result is a projection surface that looks stunning whether the room is dark or bathed in daylight, delivering punchy blacks, accurate colors, and convincing contrast without the glare that typically washes out images. With a fixed-frame design and beveled edges, the Parallax screen blends professional aesthetics with robust performance, turning any space into a true home theater, classroom, or presentation venue. It’s the ideal choice for discerning viewers who demand excellent image quality in real-world lighting conditions, from bright living rooms to multi-purpose media spaces.
- Ambient light rejection with Parallax Pure technology: A sophisticated micro-layered optical lens system actively blocks ambient light from windows and overhead fixtures while preserving the integrity of the projected image. The result is higher contrast, more accurate color reproduction, and improved perceived brightness in challenging lighting environments.
- Fixed-frame with beveled edges: This screen features a clean, professional fixed frame with beveled corners that deliver precise image geometry and a refined appearance. The sturdy construction minimizes flex and helps maintain a flat, wrinkle-free surface for a consistently sharp picture.
- Generous 120-inch diagonal screen: The large format provides immersive, cinema-scale visuals that are ideal for home theaters, media rooms, classrooms, and conference spaces. The expansive surface ensures viewers far from the screen still receive a vivid, uniform image with excellent seat-to-seat consistency.
- Television-like image both on and off: Parallax technology delivers a look and feel similar to broadcast television in both states. When the projector is on, images pop with improved brightness and contrast, and when it’s off, the surface minimizes glare and maintains a neutral, non-distracting appearance.
- Extremely wide viewing angles and durable surface: The Parallax surface is engineered for broad seating layouts, so image quality remains strong from multiple vantage points across the room. The screen surface resists warping and maintains color accuracy from left, right, and center seats alike.

- Step 2: Unpack the fixed-frame screen and verify that all mounting components are present. Lay the frame flat and perform a quick check to ensure there are no damaged parts or hardware missing.
- Step 3: Mark the mounting locations on the wall, ensuring the frame will sit level and centered in the room. Use a spirit level to verify horizontal and vertical alignment before attaching brackets or anchors.
- Step 4: Install the wall brackets or anchors according to the manufacturer’s instructions, making sure they are secure and capable of supporting the frame’s weight over time.
- Step 5: Hang the frame onto the wall brackets, then tighten all fasteners evenly to maintain true alignment. Check for plumb and level once the frame is in place.
- Step 6: Inspect the screen surface for any wrinkles or indentations and adjust tension or alignment as needed to guarantee a taut, wrinkle-free surface.
- Step 7: Leave a short window for the projector to be positioned and aligned. Configure the projector’s throw distance, keystone correction, brightness, and contrast to maximize the Parallax surface’s light-rejecting performance.
- Step 8: Perform a final room-wide check of lighting, seating, and acoustics to ensure comfort and image consistency from all viewing positions.
