Draper Access E – 100", NTSC – 139103EC

Product Overview

The Draper Access E is a ceiling-recessed, motorized projection screen engineered for permanent commercial AV installations that require a fully concealed image surface. This 100" diagonal NTSC (4:3) model retracts completely into its housing above the finished ceiling, keeping conference rooms, boardrooms, and training rooms clean when the screen is not in use. As a free-hanging Series E screen, it holds a smooth image through the weight of the viewing surface and bottom dowel, driven by a quiet tubular motor for reliable daily operation. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Access E ceiling-recessed projection screen is specified by integrators who need a motorized front-projection surface that disappears into the ceiling between uses. The steel case installs during the initial construction phase, and quick-connect wiring lets the crew add the screen later to avoid job-site damage, streamlining large commercial deployments. Because this is a free-hanging Series E screen, it is not tab-tensioned; flatness is maintained by the weight of the surface and the bottom dowel, which is well suited to the small-to-medium boardroom and classroom applications the model targets. The 4:3 NTSC format suits presentation content, document cameras, and legacy sources common in training and education spaces. The case measures 7-3/8" high by 8-1/16" deep including the trim flange, and supports a maximum image width up to 16' (488 cm) depending on surface selection. Sliding brackets on top of the case allow the installer to adjust mounting points around structural obstructions, while sliding brackets inside the case accommodate different screen sizes. A detachable bottom access panel simplifies service and long-term maintenance from below the ceiling. The screen ships standard with a 110V tubular motor and 3-position control switch, with quiet, low-voltage (LVC-IV), and 220V motor options available for integration into a larger control system. Pair the Access E with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rooms is the Draper Access E designed for?

The Access E is intended for small-to-medium commercial spaces such as boardrooms, conference rooms, training rooms, and university classrooms where a motorized screen should be concealed in the ceiling when not in use.

Is the Access E tab-tensioned?

No. The Access E is a free-hanging Series E screen, so it is not tab-tensioned. Flatness is maintained by the weight of the viewing surface and the bottom dowel. If your application requires tab-tensioning for a very large or critical image, consider a Series V model such as the Draper Access XL V.

What projectors and mounts are compatible?

The Access E works with any commercial front projector matched to its 100" NTSC (4:3) format and your room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.

Can the case be installed before the screen?

Yes. Quick-connect wiring lets the case be mounted during the initial construction phase, with the viewing surface added later to reduce the risk of job-site damage on active projects.

What motor and control options are available?

The screen ships with a 110V tubular motor and a 3-position switch. Quiet motors, low-voltage LVC-IV control, and 220V operation are available so the screen can be integrated into a larger AV control system.

What warranty and support are included?

The Access E carries Draper's standard 5-year warranty, supplied through Creation Networks as an authorized dealer. Contact us at creationnetworks.net for pre-sale specification help and post-sale support.
