This unit ships with Draper's LVC-IV Low Voltage Controller and is supplied by Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's standard warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Targa electric projection screen (Part # 116019U) is a Series E free-hanging screen built for integrators who need a dependable, budget-conscious motorized projection screen for conference rooms, training rooms, and houses of worship. The viewing surface hangs from a 3" (76 mm) metal roller and stays flat under its own weight with a weighted bottom dowel, so there is no tab-tensioning system to maintain. The tubular motor is housed inside the roller on rubber isolators for quiet, low-profile operation, and the motor is UL certified, instantly reversible, and lifetime-lubricated with preset limit switches. The one-piece 22-gauge pentagonal steel case measures 5-7/8" high by 5-1/4" deep and carries a scratch-resistant white finish, with matching endcaps that double as universal mounting brackets for either wall or ceiling installation. The 4:3 NTSC image area is finished with a black frame for defined edges, and this unit is supplied with Draper's LVC-IV Low Voltage Controller for clean integration into a low-voltage control bus. The Matt White XT1000E surface is a unity-gain (1.0), GREENGUARD Gold certified material with a panoramic 180° viewing cone, making it a practical choice for rooms where ambient light is controlled. Pair the Targa with a matched 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 Draper Targa a tensioned screen?

No. The Targa is a Series E free-hanging (non-tensioned) electric screen. The Matt White XT1000E surface hangs from the roller and stays flat with a weighted bottom dowel, so there is no tab-tensioning system to maintain. If you require a tab-tensioned surface for large-format or critical-viewing applications, consider Draper's Series V models.

How is the Targa mounted?

The Targa installs on a wall or ceiling using its matching endcaps, which double as universal mounting brackets. The installer supplies the appropriate screws, toggle bolts, or anchors for the mounting surface. Optional floating wall brackets are available for added placement flexibility.

What does the LVC-IV controller add to this unit?

This SKU (116019U) ships with Draper's LVC-IV Low Voltage Controller, which allows the screen to be operated from a low-voltage control bus and integrated with third-party automation systems such as Crestron and Control4. A standard 110–120V, 3-position control switch is also included.

What projectors and mounts are compatible with the Targa?

The Targa works with any commercial front projector matched to its 4:3 NTSC image area and your room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.

Is the Matt White XT1000E surface a good choice for rooms with windows?

Matt White XT1000E is a unity-gain (1.0) surface with a wide 180° viewing cone and typical contrast. It performs best where ambient light is controlled. For rooms with significant uncontrolled light, a higher-contrast or ambient-light-rejecting surface is usually a better fit—contact us to discuss options.

What warranty and support are included?

The Targa carries Draper's standard manufacturer warranty, supplied through Creation Networks as an authorized dealer. Contact us at creationnetworks.net for pre-sale specification help, control-system integration, and post-sale support.
