Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 119" Electric Projection Screen
Experience a streamlined installation and flawless visuals with the Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 119" Electric Projection Screen. Designed to eliminate the extra step of finishing the screen with trim, this screen line comes with ceiling trim already in place, so once it’s installed, the trim conceals the rough opening and eliminates the need for additional trim work. The result is a clean, professional look, faster setup, and superb image quality for presentations, classrooms, corporate environments, and home theaters.
- Integrated ceiling trim for a flawless finish. The Advantage series is engineered so the ceiling trim is built into the housing. This means you won’t have to finish the rough opening with extra trim afterward, saving time and ensuring a neat, professional installation from the moment the screen is mounted.
- Tensioned screen surface for a uniform image. The tensioned fabric stays perfectly flat across the entire screen, eliminating waviness and distortion that can occur with non-tensioned designs. The result is a crisp, edge-to-edge image with superior clarity for every projector and room lighting condition.
- Electric operation with quiet performance. This 119" electric projection screen features a smooth, reliable motor for effortless raise and lower actions. A quiet motor and smooth travel path minimize disruption in meeting spaces, classrooms, and home theaters, while keeping the screen securely in place at the desired stop.
- Durable construction with a clean aesthetic. The screen/ housing is built from robust materials and finished to blend with most interior decors. The white case and dark drop border help frame the image, enhancing perceived contrast and providing a neat, professional look that fits conference rooms, classrooms, and home theaters alike.
- Versatile, space-conscious design for multiple environments. Perfect for ceiling-mounted installations in education, corporate, and residential settings where a fast, easy setup is valued. The 119" diagonal offers an expansive viewing area without overwhelming smaller rooms, and the integrated trim keeps the installation tidy and low-profile.

How to install Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 119" Electric Projection Screen
Installing the Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol screen is designed to be straightforward, with installer-friendly features that reduce on-site complexity. Follow these general guidelines to ensure a secure, level, and visually optimal setup. Note that exact hardware and mounting steps may vary by room structure and chosen mounting location, so always refer to the included installation manual for your specific model and install conditions.
Preparation and planning
1) Plan the mounting location with room geometry in mind. Ensure the screen’s viewing height aligns with the primary seating area, and that the screen surface will have an unobstructed projection path from the projector. Consider ambient light levels and projector placement to maximize image contrast and readability. The integrated ceiling trim design makes it especially important to verify the rough opening is sized correctly so the trim can neatly conceal any gaps after installation.
2) Gather required tools and hardware. Typical installations use ceiling anchors or expansion bolts rated for the ceiling material, a stud finder for wood or metal framing, a level, measuring tape, and basic hand tools. If your ceiling is hollow or lacks sufficient support, reinforce the mounting area to meet the screen’s weight-bearing requirements. Always follow local building codes and the hardware recommendations provided by Da-Lite for your specific unit.
Mounting the screen
3) Attach mounting brackets to the ceiling or wall at the designed position. Use a level to ensure the brackets are perfectly horizontal, as any tilt could bias the screen’s alignment and projection edge. Securely fasten to structural members if possible; if using ceiling anchors, ensure they’re rated for the load and installed per manufacturer guidance. The integrated ceiling trim will conceal the rough opening once the screen is installed, so precision here helps minimize trim adjustments later.
4) Hang the screen housing and verify alignment. With the brackets engaged, carefully mount the screen housing and perform a level check across multiple axes. The 119" diagonal surface requires careful centering to ensure the image projects cleanly within the screen area and the border remains even around all edges. Minor fine-tuning may be needed to ensure the top edge is parallel to the projector path and that the bottom edge sits evenly above seating sightlines.
Electrical connection and testing
5) Connect power and test operation. Plug the screen’s motor into a properly grounded outlet, then power on the projector and the screen’s control system. Use the remote or any on-unit controls to lower and raise the screen a few times, listening for smooth operation and confirming the auto-stop mechanism engages reliably at the fully lowered and fully raised positions. If the system includes a wired control panel, test that interface as well. If you notice any binding or irregular movement, pause operation and inspect mounting alignment, track cleanliness, and any obstructions within the housing path.
Calibration and final adjustments
6) Center the image and verify geometry. Confirm that the projected image aligns with the screen’s visible edges and that the black drop border frames the content evenly for maximum perceived contrast. If necessary, adjust the screen’s travel stops to ensure consistent stops at the correct heights for future use. Clean the screen surface gently with manufacturer-approved methods to maintain reflective quality over time.
Maintenance and care
7) Regular maintenance keeps the screen performing at its best. Periodically inspect the mounting hardware for any looseness, clean the screen surface with a soft, dry cloth or a cloth slightly dampened with a mild cleaning solution recommended by Da-Lite, and avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the fabric or housing. Dust the exterior and ensure the cabinet remains free of obstruction so airflow around the motor remains unobstructed. With proper care, the Tensioned Advantage Electrol screen should deliver consistent performance for years in high-traffic environments.
Professional installation considerations
8) For larger rooms or complex ceiling configurations, professional installation is advisable. A trained installer can assess structural integrity, verify proper electrical supply, confirm correct screen alignment, and ensure the integrated ceiling trim presents a flawless finish. If you’re integrating the screen with other audiovisual equipment, plan cable routing and access to control systems in advance to minimize visible wiring and maintain a clean aesthetic.
Frequently asked questions
- What does "tensioned" mean for the screen surface? A tensioned screen keeps the fabric stretched flat across the entire viewing area, eliminating wrinkles and waves that can distort the projected image. This results in a uniformly sharp picture from edge to edge, even at close viewing distances.
- Does the ceiling trim come pre-installed? Yes. The Advantage line is designed with ceiling trim built into the housing, so the rough opening is concealed after installation without requiring extra trim work.
- Is this screen suitable for classrooms and conference rooms? Absolutely. Its combination of a large 119" diagonal, quiet electric operation, and a clean, professional finish makes it ideal for education, corporate training spaces, and home theater setups where reliability and presentation quality matter.
- How do I control the screen? The screen is operated electrically, typically via a remote control. Some installations may support additional control methods, such as wall-mounted control panels or integration with room automation systems, depending on the model and configuration.
- What maintenance is required? Regularly inspect mounting hardware, keep the screen surface clean with recommended methods, and ensure the housing remains free of obstructions. With proper care, the tensioned fabric and motorized mechanism maintain performance over many years of use.
