Draper Profile+ 255" 16:10 Grey XH600V – High Contrast Fixed Frame Projection Screen

Product Overview

The Draper Profile+ 255" fixed frame projection screen (part number 254257) delivers a 123" x 216" image in the 16:10 widescreen format used by most installation projectors, paired with a Grey XH600V surface that holds contrast in rooms with ambient light. That combination makes this large venue projection screen a practical specification for training rooms, government briefing spaces, and auditoriums where lights stay up for note-taking. The lightweight Profile+ frame installs at under 2 inches deep with a borderless or slim bezel finish for a clean architectural presentation.

Product Description

The 254257 combines two decisions AV system designers make for daylight-tolerant large rooms: a 16:10 format that matches the native WUXGA output of most commercial projectors, and a grey contrast-enhancing surface. Draper's Grey XH600V deepens black levels and preserves image contrast when used with moderate to high-output projectors, so data-heavy content — spreadsheets, dashboards, GIS and command-and-control layouts — stays legible even when the room is not fully darkened. That behavior suits corporate training room AV installations, lecture halls, and multi-purpose rooms that host both presentations and events. The Profile+ frame is engineered to carry an 18-foot-wide image while remaining lightweight, and it finishes at less than 2" (51 mm) deep on the wall. Specify a borderless edge for an image-only look or a 5/8" (16 mm) bezel trim for a defined border. The viewing surface mounts with Draper's sliding hook-and-loop attachment system, which tensions the surface evenly across the frame and shortens assembly time on site. The screen ships unassembled, allowing crews to carry components through elevators, stairs, and tight corners before building the frame in the room. Wall brackets are included as standard; flown brackets for suspended installation are available from Draper on request.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I specify the Grey XH600V surface over matt white?
Choose Grey XH600V when the room keeps ambient light during use and your projector has brightness headroom. The grey surface deepens blacks and preserves contrast; in a fully light-controlled room with a modest projector, matt white may serve better.

Why is 16:10 the right format for training and briefing rooms?
Most installation projectors output 16:10 natively, so presentation and data content uses the projector's full resolution without letterboxing — valuable when legibility of fine detail drives the design.

How is the screen installed?
It ships unassembled; a commercial AV crew assembles the frame on site, attaches the surface via the sliding hook-and-loop system, and hangs the frame on the included wall brackets. Mounting fasteners are not included.

Can the 254257 be suspended instead of wall-mounted?
Yes. The Profile+ supports flown installation; request flown brackets from Draper at order time.

Does this screen add anything to my control system scope?
No. A fixed frame screen has no motor, sensors, or wiring, so AV system integration is limited to projector alignment — there is nothing to program or maintain.

What warranty and support are provided?
Draper backs the Profile+ with a 5-year warranty in the US and Canada, and Creation Networks offers commercial AV buyers pre-sale design help and post-sale support.
