The Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 123" Electric Projection Screen delivers a premium-grade projection experience with a discreet, ceiling-recessed design. Built to hide rough openings with built-in ceiling trim, this series minimizes post-install trim work while providing a perfectly taut, distortion-free surface across a large 123" diagonal. Its two-stage installation option simplifies mounting in both new construction and retrofit projects, helping installers achieve precise alignment quickly. With a durable housing, quiet motor operation, and Da-Lite’s renowned tensioned fabric technology, this screen blends architectural elegance with dependable performance for classrooms, conference rooms, and home theaters alike.
- Concealed ceiling-recessed design = Capped with integrated ceiling trim to hide rough openings, delivering a clean, architectural look that complements any room. This design reduces the need for additional trim work after installation and makes ceiling lines appear seamless, boosting aesthetics in educational, corporate, and home environments.
- 123" diagonal with tensioned projection surface = A large, flat projection area that stays warp-free across the full width. The tensioned fabric minimizes waviness and bowing, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness for text, graphs, and high-detail imagery. Ideal for presentations, lectures, and media-rich content in rooms with controlled lighting.
- Two-stage installation option = A flexible mounting approach that eases installation in ceilings with limited clearance or retrofit scenarios. Stage one secures the case, while stage two completes fabric alignment and surface tautness, resulting in a precise, stable screen with less on-site complexity and faster project completion.
- Quiet, reliable electric operation = A smooth, unobtrusive motor raises and lowers the screen, with predictable travel and minimal noise. Control options typically include a remote or wall switch, and many setups benefit from automatic stops to protect the fabric and ensure consistent operation throughout years of use.
- Durable construction for high-traffic spaces = Reinforced housing and durable screen fabric designed to withstand frequent use in education and corporate environments. The system maintains alignment and surface flatness even after repeated cycles, ensuring long-term reliability and a professional look in busy rooms.
