How to Install Draper Luma 2 Manual Screen
- Before installation, determine your preferred mounting location (wall or ceiling) and ensure structural support can handle the screen’s weight and mounting hardware. Use a stud finder to locate secure attachment points and confirm clearance for the screen’s travel path.
- Unpack the screen and confirm all components are present per the instruction manual. Inspect the housing, mounting brackets, and pull-down mechanism for any damage from shipping or handling.
- Mark the mounting locations for the brackets at the appropriate height and alignment. Use a level to ensure the brackets will sit perfectly horizontal so the screen rolls down smoothly and stays flat when in use.
- Drill pilot holes and install the mounting brackets according to the supplied hardware and the weight specifications of the screen. If mounting to masonry, use appropriate anchors and hardware designed for heavy loads.
- Attach the screen housing to the mounted brackets and verify that the screen retracts and extends without binding. Test the pull-down operation several times to ensure smooth travel, and make any minor height adjustments as required for optimal viewing distance from your seating arrangement.
- Connect any optional edge anchors or side tolerances as recommended by Draper’s installation guide to maintain screen flatness and reduce edge curl or wrinkles during operation.
- Finalize the installation by cleaning the screen surface of any dust or fingerprints and confirming that the projected image is centered and evenly illuminated in your space.
