Experience truly flat, cinema-quality imagery with the Draper Clarion fixed screen. Measuring 165 inches diagonally in a 16:10 aspect ratio, this screen is engineered for crystal-clear presentation and immersive viewing in boardrooms, conference rooms, universities, and high-end home theaters. The Clarion surface delivers a distortion-free picture, while the frame itself provides a refined border that creates a theater-like appearance without sacrificing room aesthetics. The Matt White XT1000V frame blends seamlessly with contemporary interiors, offering durability and a professional finish that resists wear over years of daily use. Its design emphasizes ease of installation and reliable performance, making it an ideal choice for professional environments that demand uncompromising image quality and a streamlined, low-profile look.

• True flat viewing surface for superior image quality – The Clarion fixed screen is designed to maintain a perfectly flat plane across the entire 165" diagonal, minimizing image distortions, edge waviness, and keystone effects. This yields crisp text, sharp lines, and uniform brightness from every seating position. With a 16:10 aspect ratio, you gain extra horizontal space ideal for data-heavy presentations, wide charts, and cinematic content, ensuring content remains natural and undistorted even when viewed from the sides of a large audience. The surface works in concert with contemporary projectors to deliver accurate geometry, enhanced contrast, and stable weight distribution that keeps the image true over time. The black border frames the image cleanly, focusing attention on the content and contributing to a theater-like ambience in any room.
• Tool-free, snapless screen attachment to the frame – The screen attaches to the frame without snaps or tools, enabling a clean, uninterrupted front surface and straightforward installation. This snapless integration ensures consistent tension and alignment across the entire screen, preventing sagging or warping that can degrade image quality. In practice, the fixed-frame design means you enjoy a taut projection surface with a professional, seamless appearance from edge to edge. This feature is especially valuable in corporate settings, classrooms, and home theaters where quick upgrades or reconfigurations are common, and it helps maintain a pristine, professional aesthetic with minimal maintenance.
• Durable Matt White XT1000V frame for longevity and style – The frame’s Matt White XT1000V finish offers a contemporary look that complements modern decor, paired with a sturdy construction designed to withstand years of use. The white finish reduces visible glare and contributes to a clean, bright presentation environment, while the black border creates visual focus on the image itself. XT1000V framing is chosen for durability and color stability, helping to preserve the screen’s geometry and appearance even in rooms with dynamic lighting or frequent projector use. This refined frame not only enhances aesthetics but also supports long-term performance by resisting discoloration and wear, ensuring a consistent viewing experience across many projection sessions.
• Versatile size and aspect ratio fit for diverse spaces – A 165" diagonal with a 16:10 aspect ratio strikes a balance between cinematic immersion and practical projector throw calculations in a broad range of environments. This size works exceptionally well in executive boardrooms, training facilities, lecture halls, and living rooms designed for home cinema, where audiences benefit from a expansive, immersive image without overwhelming the room. The combination of size, aspect ratio, and fixed-frame geometry ensures uniform focus, crisp image edges, and high perceived brightness across seating rows. The screen’s proportions are well-suited to present complex data, multi-panel video walls, and feature-length content with minimal letterboxing or pillarboxing, delivering a contiguous, compelling viewing experience.
• Low-maintenance care and professional warranty appeal – Draper fixed-frame systems are built with practicality in mind. Routine cleaning with a soft cloth or a gentle duster helps keep the surface free of dust and fingerprints, preserving image clarity. The rigid frame construction supports stable geometry, helping prevent distortion over time and reducing the need for frequent adjustments. In professional settings, such reliability translates to fewer interruptions during important presentations and more confidence in daily use. The Clarion line is designed for long-term performance, aligning with the needs of busy conference rooms, classrooms, and home theaters where consistent results are essential to success.

How to install Draper Clarion 165" 16:10, Matt White XT1000V

• 1) Plan the installation location by ensuring a flat, plumb wall surface with adequate space for the 165" diagonal footprint. Verify that the chosen wall can support the frame’s weight and that there is sufficient clearance for projector throw distance and observer sightlines.
• 2) Gather mounting hardware suitable for fixed-frame installations and verify that the frame’s mounting points align with the wall structure. Use a level to ensure the frame will sit square to the wall, as even minor deviations can be noticeable with a large display.
• 3) Mark the wall to locate studs or use appropriate wall anchors if studs are not located where needed. Securely attach the frame brackets or mounting plates to the wall, following the manufacturer’s guidelines for spacing and weight distribution.
• 4) Lift and align the fixed frame against the mounted brackets, then fasten the frame securely. Confirm that the frame sits flush and square, using a level and measuring the diagonals to verify true rectangular alignment.
• 5) Insert or align the screen within the frame if required, ensuring the surface remains taut and free of wrinkles. Calibrate projector alignment and throw distance according to your projector’s specifications to achieve a properly scaled image with edge-to-edge sharpness. Finally, perform a quick image test with typical content (presentations, videos, graphics) to confirm uniform brightness and focus across the entire screen.
