How to install Da-Lite UTB Contour 125" Fixed Frame Projection Screen

Installing the UTB Contour is a straightforward process designed to deliver a clean, professional finish. Begin by planning the location to ensure optimal viewing distance and projector placement. Verify you have a solid wall surface or mounting substrate capable of supporting the frame’s weight over time. Use a stud finder to locate structural members and mark the intended mounting points for precise alignment. Assemble the fixed-frame components according to the included instructions, taking care to square the frame so the corners form true right angles. Align the screen surface within the frame, then tighten tensioning components to achieve a perfectly flat, wrinkle-free projection surface. Mount the completed frame to the wall using the supplied hardware, ensuring it remains level and securely anchored. Finally, test projection alignment with your projector, adjust keystone, and verify image coverage to confirm an edge-to-edge, distortion-free picture. For best results, ensure ambient lighting is controlled and your projector’s throw ratio is optimized for the 125" diagonal and 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Key installation tips to maximize durability and performance:

• Use a stud finder to locate secure mounting points and distribute the frame’s weight for long-term stability.
• Carefully square the frame during assembly to prevent skewed edges and misalignment that could affect image geometry.
• Follow the manufacturer’s tensioning guidance to achieve a perfectly flat viewing surface with minimal curvature or waviness.
• Verify projector throw distance and screen placement to fully utilize the 2.35:1 aspect ratio, avoiding image cropping or black bars on the sides.
• Seal and cover any wall penetrations after mounting to maintain a clean installation and protect the frame from dust.
