Draper Premier – 123", 16:10 – 101640CBU

Product Overview

The Draper Premier is an electric, tab-tensioned projection screen built for permanent commercial AV installations that need a perfectly flat image from a motorized ceiling- or wall-mounted screen. This 123" 16:10 model pairs a steel case with RF-welded tensioning tabs and ships with an LVC-IV low-voltage controller for integration with AV control and building-automation systems. As a 123-inch motorized projection screen, it holds the viewing surface flat and wrinkle-free for accurate, distortion-free front projection in conference rooms, boardrooms, and training rooms. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Premier electric screen is engineered for integrators specifying a motorized, tab-tensioned image surface in a durable steel case finished in black plastisol, with white available as an option. Tab-tensioning uses RF-welded tabs along both edges to keep the surface taut and perfectly flat, eliminating the curl and edge waves common to free-hanging screens and delivering a clean picture for front projection. The 16:10 widescreen format matches the native resolution of many commercial projectors and laptops, making it a practical fit for data and presentation content. The case measures 5-7/8" high by 5-1/4" deep (15 cm x 13 cm), with matching endcaps that form universal wall- or ceiling-mounting brackets so the same unit fits most commercial mounting scenarios. A standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top of the viewing area sets the image at the correct height for the room and supports ceiling-recessed installation with an optional trim kit. This unit is configured with an LVC-IV low-voltage controller, allowing the screen to be triggered from a control processor, contact closure, or building-automation system alongside projector power and shades. The Premier supports a maximum image width up to 12' (366 cm); for wider images, the Premier XL extends the same platform. This makes it well suited to corporate meeting spaces, higher-education classrooms, and training rooms that need reliable daily motorized operation. Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.
