Draper Access V – 109", 16:10 – 140126FBQ

Product Overview

The Draper Access V is a ceiling-recessed, tab-tensioned motorized projection screen engineered for permanent commercial AV installations where the screen must disappear into the ceiling when not in use. This 109" diagonal 16:10 model pairs a fully concealed in-ceiling case with a tab-tensioned viewing surface, making it a clean fit for boardrooms, huddle rooms, and higher-education classrooms that project native 16:10 computer content. As a tab-tensioned motorized projection screen, it holds the image flat and wrinkle-free across the full width. This unit ships with Draper's quiet motor option. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Access V ceiling-recessed projection screen is specified by integrators who need a motorized screen that is invisible when retracted and dead-flat when deployed. The tab-tensioned surface uses side tabs to keep the image plane taut and free of curl, delivering a flat, wrinkle-free picture that free-hanging screens cannot match. Its 16:10 format matches the native output of most laptops and presentation sources, avoiding letterboxing in data-heavy rooms. The steel case recesses fully into the ceiling and accepts image widths up to 16' (488 cm), with the image area fully framed in black and a standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top for correct picture placement. A plug-in, quick-connect wiring system lets the case be installed early during construction and the screen fabric added later, protecting the surface from job-site damage. A removable bottom access panel allows service and fabric replacement from below the ceiling without pulling the case, and the unit is plenum-rated for use in environmental air-handling spaces. This makes the Access V well suited to conference rooms, huddle rooms, training rooms, and classrooms that require a finished ceiling line and a flat projected image. Pair it 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

Is the Access V tab-tensioned or free-hanging?

The Access V is a tab-tensioned Series V screen. Side tabs keep the viewing surface taut and flat, which produces more accurate image geometry than a free-hanging surface.

Why choose the 16:10 format?

16:10 matches the native output of most laptops and presentation sources, so computer and data content fills the screen without letterboxing. It is a common choice for classrooms and conference rooms.

What does the "Q" in the model number mean?

The Q designates Draper's quiet motor option for lower-noise raising and lowering. A standard 110V three-position switch is included, with low-voltage and 220V options available. Confirm any additional configuration codes with our team before ordering.

Can the case be installed before the screen fabric?

Yes. The quick-connect wiring system lets contractors rough in and mount the case early during construction, then add the screen fabric later, protecting the surface from job-site damage.

Is this screen suitable for plenum ceilings?

Yes. The Access V case is UL-recognized for use in environmental air-handling (plenum) spaces, which simplifies code compliance when installed above a suspended commercial ceiling.

What projectors and mounts pair with the Access V?

It works with any commercial front projector matched to its 109" 16:10 format and your room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.

What warranty and support are included?

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