Da-Lite Fast-Fold Deluxe Screen System 159" 16:9 - 88609
Product Overview
The Da-Lite 88609 Fast-Fold Deluxe Screen System is a portable projection screen configured for a 159" diagonal 16:9 format image, designed for rental, staging, and large-venue presentations where a permanent installation is not feasible or required. The Fast-Fold system uses a rigid aluminum frame that assembles without tools, providing a flat, stable projection surface for front or rear projection. This system is the standard choice for AV rental and staging companies and large-format portable projection screen commercial deployments.
Product Description
The Da-Lite 88609 Fast-Fold Deluxe Screen System provides a Da-Lite portable projection screen for large-format presentations in rental, staging, and temporary installation environments. The 159" diagonal 16:9 format accommodates all standard HD and UHD projector outputs at a size suitable for large meeting rooms, ballrooms, auditoriums, and outdoor staging environments. The Fast-Fold aluminum frame assembles quickly without tools, with legs and frame sections that fold flat for transport in included carry bags. The system is designed for repeated setup and breakdown cycles in rental staging projection screen contexts. The screen material clips directly to the frame and is available in multiple surface options including front and rear projection materials. The system supports drapery kits for a finished presentation appearance when required. The Fast-Fold Deluxe is Da-Lite's commercial-grade portable screen line, appropriate for AV rental companies, event production firms, and organizations with ongoing large-format portable projection requirements.
