Draper Access V – 123", 16:10 – 140128FBQ

Product Overview

The Draper Access V is a ceiling-recessed, tab-tensioned electric projection screen designed to disappear into the ceiling when not in use. This 123" diagonal 16:10 model is a plenum-rated ceiling-recessed projection screen whose steel case is UL-recognized for installation in air-handling ceiling spaces. It is a strong fit for conference rooms, boardrooms, and training rooms that need a widescreen 16:10 data image on demand and a clean ceiling line otherwise. This unit is supplied with Draper's Quiet motor for low-noise operation. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Access V tab-tensioned projection screen gives integrators a recessed motorized screen that installs cleanly during construction. Its steel case measures 7-3/8" high x 8-1/16" deep (19 cm x 20 cm) including the trim flange and mounts with 3/8" threaded rod, lag screws, or wire in a grid ceiling. Because the case is plenum-rated (UL-recognized "Suitable for Use in Environmental Air Space"), it can sit directly in return-air plenums common to commercial buildings. This 123" size has a 16:10 viewable area of 65" x 104", a native match for laptop and data resolutions in commercial meeting spaces. Quick-connect wiring lets the case be mounted early, with the screen and viewing surface added later to prevent job-site damage. The tab-tensioned surface stays flat across its full width for a wrinkle-free image, and the image area is framed in black with a standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top for correct projector alignment. This unit ships with the Quiet motor (SKU suffix Q), which reduces operating noise in quiet rooms such as boardrooms and executive briefing spaces. A detachable bottom access panel simplifies service without disturbing the ceiling. Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the "Q" in SKU 140128FBQ indicate?

The Q suffix indicates Draper's Quiet motor, which lowers operating noise during screen deployment and retraction — useful in boardrooms and executive briefing rooms where ambient noise must stay low.

Is the Access V case safe to install in a return-air plenum?

Yes. The case is plenum-rated under the UL recognition "Suitable for Use in Environmental Air Space," so it can be recessed directly into air-handling ceiling spaces. Confirm local code requirements with your AHJ.

Why choose the 16:10 format for a conference room?

16:10 matches the native aspect ratio of many laptops and presentation sources, so data and slides fill the 65" x 104" image area without letterboxing or rescaling.

What projectors and mounts are compatible with this screen?

The Access V works with any commercial front projector matched to its 123" 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.

Can the case be installed before the screen during construction?

Yes. Quick-connect wiring allows the case to be mounted during early construction and the screen and surface installed later, reducing the risk of job-site damage.

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.
