how to install Da-Lite Professional Electrol Series Projection Screen

To install the Da-Lite Professional Electrol Series Projection Screen, begin with careful planning of placement to maximize viewing comfort and projector alignment. Measure the room’s height and ceiling depth to determine the ideal ceiling-recessed cavity or wall-mount location for the wooden housing. Use the adjustable brackets to secure the cabinet to structural elements such as joists or dedicated mounting points, ensuring the housing sits level and square relative to the projector screen surface. Route electrical power to the motor with an accessible power source and verify that the control interface (remote or wall switch) is properly connected and functional. Align the projection axis so that the image on the screen is vertically and horizontally centered with the projector’s throw, adjusting height and seating geometry as needed for audience comfort. If you choose a ceiling-recessed installation, follow the manufacturer's specifications for ceiling opening dimensions and ventilation considerations to maintain safe operation and ease of maintenance. When in doubt, consult with a qualified installer who has experience with large-format electrol screens and the unique requirements of ceiling-recessed or suspended configurations.

Once installed, test the system by slowly lowering the screen to confirm smooth operation and even fabric tension. Verify that there are no obstructions in the screen’s path and that the remote or wall switch functions consistently. Routine maintenance includes periodic cleaning of the cabinet exterior and checking mounting brackets for any signs of loosening. With proper installation and regular care, the Da-Lite Professional Electrol Series delivers dependable performance across many years of use in demanding large-venue environments.
