Da-Lite FullVision 159" Projection Screen

The Da-Lite FullVision 159" Projection Screen is a transformative solution for home theaters, conference rooms, and living spaces that demand a sleek, modern look without sacrificing picture quality. This borderless fixed-frame screen uses its entire surface for projection, delivering an immersive, edge-to-edge image that draws you into the action. Designed to blend seamlessly into any interior, the FullVision system disappears when not in use, letting your room shine with its decor while still offering the very best possible projection when you’re watching or presenting. If you crave a minimalist aesthetic without compromising brightness, color accuracy, or image stability, FullVision is the smart choice.

• Borderless elegance meets screen integrity. The FullVision fixed-frame design minimizes visual distractions by removing traditional borders, creating a contemporary, almost frameless look that keeps the focus on the image. This modern presentation makes the screen feel like a natural part of the room, rather than a separate device, while still providing a taut, flat projection surface for crisp, warp-free images.
• Immersive 159" diagonal for cinematic impact. With a generous diagonal size and a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, the FullVision screen fills a wide seating area with a commanding image. It’s ideal for movies, sports, gaming, and large-format presentations, delivering a sense of scale that draws viewers into the content rather than pulling their attention to the edges of the frame.
• Warp-free, tensioned surface for consistent image quality. The fixed-frame construction maintains uniform tension across the projection surface, ensuring a perfectly flat image with minimal distortion from edge to edge. Homogeneous surface tension helps preserve brightness and color uniformity, so every seat in the room experiences the same high-quality picture.
• High-quality projection surface tailored for front projection. The Matte White projection surface is designed to reproduce accurate colors and natural grayscale while supporting vibrant whites and deep blacks. This surface is engineered to minimize hot spots and maintain clarity across a wide viewing angle, making it suitable for rooms with variable lighting and multiple seating positions.
• Low-profile installation with durable, long-lasting construction. Built with a resilient frame and precision mounting options, the FullVision system offers a clean, minimal footprint that complements modern interiors. The frame is designed for easy mounting to walls or ceilings, providing a secure, stable platform for many years of dependable performance.

How to install Da-Lite FullVision 159" Projection Screen

Preparing for installation is straightforward when you follow a few key steps. Start by choosing an installation location with clear wall space, ensuring there is room for the 159" diagonal screen and adequate clearance for projector throw distance. Measure the wall accurately, and verify that the wall materials and mounting studs can support the frame’s weight. Ensure you have a level, a stud finder, and the correct mounting hardware for your wall type. If you’re unsure, consult the installation guide provided by Da-Lite or hire a professional installer to guarantee precise alignment and safe mounting.

Step 1: Plan and measure Begin by marking the intended screen center on the wall. Confirm that your projector’s throw ratio will fill the screen appropriately without overscan or underscan. The goal is to align the projected image with the surface height so that viewers experience the intended composition from the primary seating positions. Take into account any ambient light sources and plan for blackout options if necessary to maximize contrast during viewing.

Step 2: Locate studs and prepare mounting Use a stud finder to locate wall studs and mark the exact positions for mounting brackets. If mounting on drywall alone, use appropriate anchors rated for the screen’s weight and leverage. Place the mounting brackets at the calculated height to ensure a level frame once installed. Double-check measurements with a level before inserting screws.

Step 3: Attach the fixed-frame brackets Secure the frame’s mounting brackets to the wall or ceiling according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Tighten all fasteners securely and perform a basic level check to confirm the frame sits perfectly flat. The borderless design depends on precise alignment to avoid any slight tilt that could affect projection geometry or perceived image flatness.

Step 4: Mount and level the screen Lift the full-frame screen assembly onto the mounted brackets. With assistance, align the frame so it sits level and plumb. Use the included level indicators or a separate carpenter’s level to verify that the screen is perfectly horizontal. Tighten all coupling hardware according to the recommended torque settings to maintain long-term stability.

Step 5: Calibrate the projector and test the image Power on your projector and project a test pattern onto the screen. Check for uniform brightness across the surface and verify that the image fills the 159" diagonal without keystone distortion. Adjust projector throw, lens shift, and zoom as needed to align the image perfectly with the screen boundaries. Make any final micro-adjustments to ensure edge-to-edge accuracy and consistent color reproduction from all seating positions.

Step 6: Finishing touches and maintenance Once the image is aligned, clean the screen surface with a soft, lint-free cloth if needed, avoiding harsh or abrasive cleaners. Periodically inspect mounting hardware for tightness and confirm that there are no signs of warping or sagging. The borderless aesthetic looks best when the frame remains evenly mounted and the screen surface stays taut, so occasional re-tightening of frame screws is recommended to preserve surface flatness over time.

  A: While many users can install it themselves with standard tools, professional installation is recommended for precise alignment, especially in larger screens like the 159" diagonal, to guarantee optimal image geometry and frame stability.

• Q: What maintenance is required?

  A: The surface is designed for simple maintenance—use a soft cloth for light cleaning, avoid harsh chemicals, and periodically check mounting hardware to preserve flatness and image fidelity over time.
