Getting High Tech With Motorized Projection Screens

Motorized projection screens are a type of hanging projection screen.  They are a permanent fixture, but unlike mounted or pull down screens they offer more diversity.  They come in a wide range of styles that make incorporating them into a room simple.

One of the perks of a motorized projection screen is that they are operated by a motor instead of pulled down manually.  This allows them to be discreetly hidden and allows for a larger, heavier screen to be used.  Motorized projection screens can be mounted on a wall, hidden in a ceiling or in the floor.  Since they do not require manually pulling to open them, they can be flush with the ceiling or floor which makes them almost hidden out of sight when not in use.

Motorized projections screens are usually controlled by a remote that opens the screen with a push of a button.  The screen's motor mechanism then opens the screen, slowly.  The remote can also be used to lower the screen.  They are simple to operate and use, once installed.  Installation will most likely have to be done by a professional who can set up the electrical system and ensure everything is installed properly.  Check with the company you are buying from when considering installation options.  Most companies that sell projection display screens offer installation. Installing a motorized projection screen yourself may also be an option to consider.

Motorize projection screens are one of the most expensive types of projection screens.  They also require routine maintenance to ensure they open and close smoothly.  Like any projection screen they must also be cleaned and cared for on a regular basis to ensure they are clean and will last.  They make a great addition to a boardroom or home theater and can be quite dramatic when raised to begin a presentation.
