Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 130" Electric Projection Screen

Experience a streamlined, professional-grade projection solution with the Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 130" Electric Projection Screen. This screen is built to save time during installation while delivering a flawlessly flat viewing surface and a clean, finished look from the moment it’s mounted. Designed with integrated ceiling trim and a whisper-quiet electric motor, the Advantage line eliminates the need for post-install trim work and ensures your screen looks installed and ready right out of the box.

• The Advantage line features ceiling trim that is already in place, so there is no extra trim work required after installation. This intelligent design conceals the rough opening and creates a polished, showroom-ready appearance with minimal effort, helping installers complete projects faster and with fewer returns for trim adjustments.
• Designed to keep the image perfectly flat, the tensioned surface resists wrinkles, sagging, and warping even at large diagonals. This keeps brightness, uniformity, and sharpness consistent from edge to edge, ensuring a cinema-quality picture for presentations, teaching spaces, and home theaters alike.
• Electric operation delivers convenient, quiet control at the push of a button. With a reliable motor, smooth retraction, and compatibility with a handheld remote or wall switch, you can raise or lower the screen with ease while maintaining a low acoustic profile so your audience stays focused on content rather than machinery.
• Durable construction combines a robust housing with precision engineering to withstand frequent use in professional environments. The screen’s build is crafted for long-term reliability, minimizing maintenance and downtime so you can rely on consistent performance with every deployment.
• Versatile installation options make the Da-Lite 130" Electrol screen suitable for ceilings or recessed applications. The integrated trim and standard mounting patterns simplify alignment with projector throw, screen height, and room geometry, enabling a clean, integrated look in classrooms, conference rooms, and home cinemas alike.

How to install Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol 130" Electric Projection Screen

• Plan the installation by measuring the rough opening and confirming structural support in the chosen mounting location. Ensure the ceiling or wall where the screen will be mounted can bear the weight of the screen and the mechanism, and check for clearance for the full 130" diagonal.
• Unbox and inspect the screen components. Verify that you have the mounting brackets, power supply routing option, remote control, and any installation hardware provided by Da-Lite. Keep the work area clean to prevent any damage during installation.
• Position the mounting brackets according to the screen’s specifications and your room’s layout. If mounting into a ceiling, locate joists or use appropriate anchors to secure the bracket system. For wall mounting, ensure the surface is solid and the brackets are perfectly level to keep the screen aligned during operation.
• Attach the screen housing and ensure the integrated ceiling trim aligns flush with the opening. Confirm that the trim conceals rough edges and creates a clean, professional reveal around the screen. Use a level to verify that the housing is perfectly plumb and the screen will retract squarely within its housing.
• Connect power and test operation. Plug the motor into a properly grounded outlet (preferably on a dedicated circuit or GFCI outlet per local code). Use the remote or wall switch to lower and raise the screen, confirming smooth operation, quiet motor performance, and correct travel to the fully lowered and retracted positions.
• Align the projector and screen together. Adjust the projector throw distance and screen height to ensure the image fills the 130" diagonal with the desired aspect ratio. If needed, fine-tune with the mounting hardware to achieve a perfectly level image and a uniform top and bottom border.
• Seal and finalize the installation. If applicable, secure any wiring with cable management solutions and if required, configure any integration with room control systems. Give the system a final test run to verify all functions before handing the space back to users.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What sets the Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Electrol apart? The Tensioned Advantage line combines a flat, wrinkle-free projection surface with an integrated ceiling trim design that conceals rough openings. This reduces installation time and delivers a clean, professional look without the need for post-install trim work. The electrol model also provides convenient electric operation for effortless, quiet retraction and extension.
• Is the screen motorized? Yes. The Electrol version uses an electric motor that can be controlled with a remote or wall switch for smooth, reliable lowering and raising of the screen.
• What sizes and aspect ratios are available? The 130" diagonal is a common option in this line, typically offered in standard aspect ratios suitable for classroom, conference, and home theater use. For exact aspect ratio compatibility with your projector and room, consult Da-Lite product specs and your installation plan.
• Does the integrated ceiling trim truly hide the rough opening? Indeed. The ceiling trim is pre-installed as part of the Advantage design, concealing rough edges and providing a finished, aesthetically pleasing perimeter around the screen when mounted.
• Can this screen be mounted on a wall or only a ceiling? The design supports both ceiling and wall mounting, giving you flexibility based on room layout, projector placement, and user preferences. Ensure you follow the mounting guidelines for a secure and level installation.
• What maintenance or care is required? Routine operation checks and occasional cleaning of the screen surface with a soft, non-abrasive cloth are typically sufficient. Avoid harsh chemicals and liquids directly on the screen surface. If the screen is in high-traffic or heavy-use environments, periodic inspections of the housing and mounting hardware are recommended.
