Da-Lite UTB Contour 137" Fixed Frame Projection Screen

Experience the pinnacle of home theater and professional presentation design with the Da-Lite UTB Contour 137" Fixed Frame Projection Screen. Engineered to resemble a sleek, ultra-modern flat-panel display, the UTB Contour combines high-end projection performance with a minimalist, architectural look that disappears into your room’s décor. The ultra-thin bezel and low-profile mounting offer a near-seamless viewing surface, making the screen feel like a giant, high-quality television rather than a traditional projection setup. With a 137" diagonal, this fixed-frame screen delivers cinematic scale for immersive movie nights, impactful corporate presentations, and engaging educational experiences. Built to maintain precise geometry and color accuracy, the UTB Contour is designed to maximize image area while minimizing distraction, so audiences focus on content—never on the frame. This combination of form and function makes the UTB Contour a compelling choice for any space where a premium viewing experience matters.

• Ultra-thin bezel and low-profile design: The UTB Contour is crafted to look like a large flat panel, with the smallest edge of any fixed frame on the market. The bezel’s minimal presence ensures the image takes center stage, delivering a modern, high-end aesthetic that complements contemporary interiors. This design not only enhances the room’s visual appeal but also reduces the perception of a traditional screen, creating an unobtrusive viewing environment that feels like a seamless extension of the wall. The flush-mount appearance is ideal for living rooms, home theaters, corporate lounges, and classroom spaces where style and performance coexist. The near-invisible border helps to maintain a clean line of sight, so viewers experience a more immersive picture without visual interruptions from a bulky frame.
• Massive 137" diagonal for cinematic impact: The UTB Contour’s expansive viewing surface delivers theater-like scale without requiring a dedicated home theater room. This size is ideal for large living spaces, conference areas, and teaching environments where traditional televisions cannot deliver the same sense of immersion. The generous diagonal ensures that more viewers can enjoy a comfortable seating distance, while the projection system can be tuned to deliver bright, vibrant color and sharp detail across the entire image. Whether you’re streaming the latest blockbuster, presenting to a large audience, or delivering dynamic instructional content, the 137" screen fosters a commanding presence that draws attention to the content and enhances retention and engagement.
• Fixed-frame construction for precise alignment and durability: The UTB Contour uses a rigid, stable frame that holds the screen surface flat and perfectly square. This fixed-frame design helps maintain geometry over time, resisting sag and warping that can occur with other mounting approaches. The frame is engineered for reliable, long-term performance, enabling quick installation and consistent results in environments with varying lighting or frequent reconfiguration. This makes it an excellent choice for multi-use spaces like lecture halls, training rooms, or multi-purpose media rooms, where consistent image geometry is essential for clear, professional presentations and flawless movie viewing.
• Versatile surface options and material compatibility: Da-Lite designs its projection systems to accommodate a range of screen surfaces and fabrics, so you can tailor the UTB Contour to your room’s lighting conditions and viewing preferences. While the exact surface choice depends on your application, you’ll benefit from a durable, uniform image with strong contrast and even brightness across the entire screen. The UTB Contour is compatible with Da-Lite’s premium projection surfaces, enabling you to optimize gain, viewing angles, and ambient light handling for your specific environment. This versatility makes the UTB Contour suitable for darkened home theaters, bright classrooms, or corporate spaces with varying lighting conditions.
• Ideal for home theaters, classrooms, and corporate settings: This screen’s design, scale, and performance characteristics address a wide range of use cases. In a home theater, it creates a cinematic focal point with a nearly invisible bezel and a screen that dominates the viewing space without overpowering it. In educational or corporate settings, the UTB Contour supports clear, engaging presentations and videos, with a large, easy-to-see surface that reduces eye strain and increases audience focus. The low-profile profile reduces wall depth, making it easier to integrate into rooms with limited space or where wall furniture and fixtures would otherwise clash with a larger screen. The UTB Contour is a flexible, high-value solution for any environment that demands a premium projection experience with a contemporary aesthetic.

How to install Da-Lite UTB Contour 137" Fixed Frame Projection Screen

• Prepare the installation area by turning off power, clearing the wall space, and locating wall studs to ensure a secure mounting surface.
• Unpack the UTB Contour frame and verify all components are present, including the frame segments, mounting hardware, and any provided leveling accessories.
• Position the frame on the wall and use a level to ensure the frame is perfectly plumb and square. Mark the stud locations through the mounting holes or brackets provided with the kit.
• Attach mounting brackets or anchors to the wall in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring robust support for the weight of the fixed frame and screen surface.
• Hang the fixed frame onto the mounting hardware, adjust for level as needed, and tighten all mounting screws securely to prevent any movement.
• Install or attach the projection surface to the frame as directed by Da-Lite’s guidelines, ensuring the fabric or surface area is taut and free of wrinkles. Double-check border alignment and overall geometry to guarantee a uniform image.
• Connect your projector, verify image alignment, and fine-tune focus, keystone correction, and aspect ratio to match the screen. Confirm that the image fills the 137" diagonal without overscanning or clipping the edges.
• Test in normal lighting conditions, adjust ambient light handling if applicable, and seal any gaps around the frame to reduce light bleed. Ensure access to service points for future maintenance without compromising stability.
