Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 164" Electric Projection Screen

The Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 164" Electric Projection Screen delivers a premium, theater-quality viewing experience with a design that blends precision engineering and architectural finesse. This ceiling-recessed screen is built to hide the rough opening with an integrated ceiling trim, creating a clean, professional look that requires minimal trim work after installation. Its tensioned, wrinkle-free surface ensures a uniformly flat image from edge to edge, preserving brightness, color accuracy, and detail whether you’re delivering a business presentation, teaching a class, or enjoying immersive home cinema. The 164" diagonal footprint, paired with a 16:9 aspect ratio, emphasizes cinematic scale while maintaining compatibility with modern projectors, enabling immersive widescreen viewing without distortion. With an electric drive system, the screen retracts smoothly and quietly into its case, preserving room aesthetics and protecting the fabric when not in use. The two-stage installation option offers genuine installation flexibility, allowing the screen case to be mounted during rough-in and finished later, reducing field labor and accelerating project timelines for commercial venues and home theater enthusiasts alike. Crafted for durability and long-term reliability, this Da-Lite model combines robust construction, precise tensioning, and high-quality components to deliver consistent performance in high-traffic environments or dedicated media rooms.

  • Ceiling recessed with built-in ceiling trim: The Tensioned Advantage design hides the rough opening, delivering a seamless appearance that integrates with any room finish. The trim conceals gaps and provides a professional boundary between the screen and ceiling, reducing post-install finish work and creating a clean wall-to-ceiling silhouette that looks refined in conference rooms, classrooms, or home theaters.
  • 164" diagonal, 16:9 aspect: Designed for modern projectors and cinematic viewing, this large-format screen fills most 16:9 projection setups. The generous diagonal combined with a true widescreen aspect yields dramatic visual impact for presentations, blockbuster films, sports, and game nights, while maintaining comfortable viewing distance across medium to large rooms.
  • Tensioned screen surface for flatness: The tensioned fabric maintains a consistent plane across the entire surface, eliminating waves and puckering that can ruin image sharpness, especially on larger screens. This feature guarantees uniform brightness, precise alignment, and pixel-perfect clarity at every corner, so you enjoy crisp detail from center to edge even during fast-motion content.
  • Electric raise/lower with quiet operation: The motorized mechanism retracts the screen smoothly into its case, delivering a near-silent performance that won’t distract during presentations or while watching movies. A remote control or compatible wall control makes operation effortless, while the system is designed for reliable daily use in classrooms, conference rooms, and home theater setups alike.
  • Two-stage installation option for easier retrofits: This practical installation approach lets the screen case be mounted during rough-in, with final trim and fabric installation completed later. The result is less on-site disruption, faster project completion, and the flexibility to accommodate complex ceilings or previously installed infrastructure—ideal for remodels, new builds, and professional installations.

how to install Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 164" Electric Projection Screen

  • Plan the installation by identifying the ceiling structure and confirming a suitable rough-in opening that accommodates the 164" diagonal screen case. If you are using the two-stage installation process, begin with securing the case framing during rough-in while ensuring there is access for electrical connections and future trim work.
  • Prepare electrical supply: Verify that a power source is available near the installation location and run the necessary wiring to the motor’s control point. Install any required wall or ceiling control devices, and ensure compliance with local electrical codes for safe operation and remote control compatibility.
  • Mount the case and align: With the two-stage method, mount the case flush to the ceiling opening, ensuring it is level and square. If you are completing the finish in a single phase, secure the case per manufacturer instructions, verify proper clearances, and confirm that the case is firmly anchored to structural members.
  • Attach mounting framework: Install the brackets or rails required to hold the screen housing securely in place. Check that all fasteners are tightened and that the case sits plumb relative to the screen area to promote smooth operation and consistent fabric tension.
  • Install fabric and align: Extend the screen fabric from the case and check for any misalignment. Center the image area within the intended projection footprint and ensure the black drop is evenly positioned for optimum contrast. Calibrate any auto-stop or limit-switch settings as specified by the manufacturer.
  • System test and setup: Power on the screen, test the retraction and extension, and verify that the remote or wall control functions correctly. Test alignment with your projector throw, verify the image geometry remains consistent across the screen, and adjust if necessary to eliminate keystone or distortion.
  • Final finishes and commissioning: Complete any ceiling trim work to hide the case and opening. Confirm room lighting, acoustic considerations, and projector placement to maximize image quality. Provide occupants with basic operation instructions and remind them to keep the screen away from harsh cleaning agents to preserve the surface.
