Draper Targa – 100", HDTV – 116454Q

Product Overview

The Draper Targa is an electric, free-hanging 100" HDTV projection screen configured here with Draper's Quiet motor for noise-sensitive commercial AV installations such as boardrooms, worship spaces, and broadcast environments. This 16:9 model houses its motor inside the roller for a low-profile appearance and ships in a pentagonal 22-gauge steel case with matching endcaps that double as universal wall or ceiling mounting brackets. As a quiet ceiling or wall mount electric projection screen, the free-hanging surface is held flat by a weighted bottom dowel while the low-noise motor keeps operation unobtrusive during live presentations. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Targa electric projection screen is engineered for integrators specifying an affordable, permanently installed motorized screen without the complexity of tab-tensioning. This unit (SKU 116454Q, "Q" for Quiet) uses Draper's Quiet motor, rated at approximately 44 dB, for rooms where actuation noise during a meeting or service is a concern. It is a Series E free-hanging screen: the viewing surface hangs from the in-roller motor and stays flat under its own weight and a weighted bottom dowel, rather than using side tensioning. The motor is mounted inside the roller on rubber isolation insulators, keeping the case slim at 5-7/8" high by 5-1/4" deep. The pentagonal case is 22-gauge steel with a scratch-resistant white finish, and matching endcaps serve as universal mounting brackets for either wall or ceiling installation. A standard 110-120V three-position control switch is included, and low-voltage and 220V control options are available for AV system integration. Maximum image width is up to 12' (366 cm) depending on surface, making the Targa well suited to conference room projection, training rooms, and worship spaces. An optional ceiling trim kit allows recessed installation where a flush ceiling appearance is required. Pair it with a unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

The "Q" designates Draper's Quiet motor option. It operates at a lower noise level (approximately 44 dB) than the standard motor, which makes it a better fit for boardrooms, worship spaces, and broadcast rooms where actuation noise matters.

Is the Targa a tensioned screen?

No. The Targa is a Series E free-hanging (non-tensioned) electric screen. The viewing surface hangs from the in-roller motor and stays flat under its own weight with a weighted bottom dowel, rather than using tab-tensioning. If your application requires a tab-tensioned surface, contact us about Draper's Series V models.

Can the Targa be mounted on both walls and ceilings?

Yes. The matching endcaps double as universal mounting brackets, so the same screen can be surface-mounted to a wall or to the ceiling. An optional ceiling trim kit is available for flush ceiling-recessed installation.

What projectors and mounts are compatible?

The Targa works with any commercial front projector matched to its 100" 16:9 format and your room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.

How does the screen integrate with an AV control system?

A 110-120V three-position control switch is included as standard. Low-voltage control modules and 220V options are available so the screen can be tied into a room controller or automation system for triggered raise/lower.

What warranty and support are included?

The Targa 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.
