A floor-rising projector screen fits only when the complete unit, its movement and the projected image work in the available space. A case that is narrower than a wall gap is a starting point, not confirmation that the installation will work.
Before ordering or cutting furniture, match your measurements to the exact screen model, size and current installation drawing. Do not use the image diagonal as the overall width of the product.
1. Measure the opening where the screen will actually sit
Record the clear width, depth and height at the intended location. Measure the tightest points, including skirting boards, door frames, cabinet edges and any overhang. A furniture listing's overall width may not describe the usable space inside it.
For a built-in installation, also record the top opening, the space below it and how the unit can be reached or removed. Share photos or a sketch showing these features rather than only a single width measurement.
2. Ask for dimensions of the complete unit
Check what each dimension in the drawing includes. The main case, end pieces, feet, brackets, cable connectors and moving cover may have different outlines, depending on the model. Confirm the outermost dimensions of the configuration you are buying.
Use the drawing for the exact size and version. A diagram for a similar screen, another mechanism or a previous generation cannot confirm the fit of your selected model.
3. Check the full movement, not just the closed case
A screen can fit while closed and still be obstructed as it rises. Confirm the space needed by the cover, lifting parts, screen edges and top bar throughout their movement. A cabinet opening must accommodate that movement, not simply the visible fabric.
There is no single clearance number that this guide can approve for every screen. Ask for the model-specific operating and service requirements. Keep access to the power connection, and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions before enclosing or fixing the unit.
4. Place the image and projector together
Decide where the bottom and top of the viewing area should sit from the main seats. Then check the case position, black borders, screen travel and fully raised height on the relevant drawing.
The projector must also form the intended image in that position. Confirm its actual throw geometry, mounting position and available lens adjustment. An ultra-short-throw setup has different placement requirements from a standard- or long-throw setup; a screen's mechanical fit does not establish optical compatibility.
5. Allow for speakers behind an acoustic screen
For a woven acoustic screen, check the speaker position against both the fabric and the solid parts of the unit. The SCREEN PRO 3W floor-rising screen has a woven, acoustically transparent viewing area and lower black section. Its case and lifting parts still need to be considered separately.
Acoustic fabric does not establish that every speaker position is suitable or that the sound will remain unchanged. Confirm the proposed layout before ordering.
Choose the material as well as the mechanism
For standard- and long-throw RGB laser viewing in a dark or dim room, compare the SCREEN PRO 3C floor-rising screen when speakers do not need to sit behind the image.
If speakers belong behind the image, compare the SCREEN PRO 3W woven acoustic floor-rising screen. For an ultra-short-throw projector, begin with the dedicated UST screen range and confirm the exact match.
What to send before placing the order
- The projector model and planned position.
- The screen model, image size, aspect ratio and case colour.
- The clear opening dimensions and desired viewing height.
- Photos or a drawing of the wall gap, cabinet or proposed recess.
- Speaker positions, power access and delivery country.
Ask SCREEN PRO to review your setup. Request confirmation of the relevant drawing and remaining installation requirements before ordering or making permanent changes to the furniture.
