Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 94" Electric Projection Screen
The Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 94" Electric Projection Screen delivers a sleek, professional wall-to-ceiling solution designed for modern conference rooms and home theaters alike. Engineered with a tensioned surface and a ceiling-recessed housing, this screen hides rough openings behind a clean ceiling trim, eliminating the need for extra trim work after installation. Its thoughtful two-stage installation option makes setup flexible, enabling contractors to fit the case into the ceiling first and complete the finish later without compromising alignment or image quality. Ideal for high-definition presentations, training rooms, and media rooms, this screen blends performance with a discreet, architectural look.
- Ceiling-recessed with concealed trim: The Tensioned Advantage series is designed to sit flush with the ceiling, featuring built-in trim that conceals the rough opening. This creates a polished, professional appearance in any room and reduces post-install refinishing time.
- Tensioned, wrinkle-free surface for sharp images: The tensioned fabric stays flat across the entire viewing area, minimizing waviness and ensuring consistent focus from edge to edge. This results in crisp, uniform image quality for 1080p, 4K, and higher-definition content, even on larger screens.
- Electric operation with reliable control: A quiet, dependable electric mechanism powers smooth, uninterrupted screen rises and lowers. Standard controls include a convenient wall switch and an infrared remote for easy placement and operation in boardrooms or home theaters.
- Two-stage installation for flexibility: The two-stage installation option lets installers install the screen case first and finish the ceiling trim later. This approach simplifies renovations, maintains precise alignment, and minimizes on-site disruption during ceiling work.
- Generous 94" diagonal for immersive viewing: The 94-inch diagonal screen strikes a balance between projector throw distance and seating efficiency, delivering immersive cinematic and presentation experiences in medium-to-large rooms with a 16:9 aspect ratio for modern HD content.

how to install Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 94" Electric Projection Screen
Follow these recommended steps to install the Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage 94" Electric Projection Screen in a ceiling-recessed configuration. Plan ahead to align with the room’s electrical and structural considerations, and ensure you have a qualified installer if required by local codes.
- Prepare the ceiling space: Verify the ceiling cavity can accommodate the screen housing and the two-stage installation path. Confirm power availability for the motor and ensure clear access for wiring runs to the electrical box.
- Position and anchor the mounting area: Mark the intended location on the ceiling where the screen will recess. Use a stud finder to identify joists or suitable mounting points and assemble the mounting frame per Da-Lite’s instructions.
- Install the case (stage one): Install the screen housing into the ceiling cavity, aligning it precisely with your marks. Secure the case to structural members as directed by the manufacturer, leaving access for final trim work if using the two-stage method.
- Complete ceiling trim (stage two): Once the case is secured, finish the ceiling opening with the prescribed trim to conceal the rough edges. This step ensures a seamless, integrated appearance with the room’s design.
- Electrical connection and test: Connect the motor to a dedicated 120V circuit (or as specified by the product’s electrical requirements). Restore power and test the raise/lower mechanism, ensuring smooth operation and full travel. Verify the remote and wall switch function correctly.
- Install screen surface and final setup: Allow the fabric to acclimate, then lower the screen completely. Check for proper tension, adust if necessary, and verify image alignment with your projector. Calibrate any remote controls for optimal performance.
- Calibration and usage tips: After installation, test with your projector’s brightness and contrast settings. Ensure the screen is free of wrinkles and shadows, and adjust the ceiling trim if needed to maintain an unobstructed viewing surface.
