Draper Ultimate Access V – 150", NTSC – 143016CBU

Product Overview

The Draper Ultimate Access V is a tab-tensioned, ceiling-recessed electric projection screen engineered for permanent commercial AV installations that require a fully concealed screen. This 150" diagonal NTSC (4:3) model drops from a steel case fitted with a motorized closure door, so both the screen and its housing recess into the ceiling when the room is not in presentation mode. As a ceiling-recessed projection screen with RF-welded tab-tensioning, it holds a flat, wrinkle-free viewing surface for accurate front projection in boardrooms, training rooms, and higher-education spaces. This unit is configured with Draper's LVC-IV low-voltage control motor and is supplied by Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Ultimate Access V tab-tensioned electric screen is specified by integrators who need a clean ceiling line and a screen that is invisible when retracted. The steel case houses a motorized trap door and an independent ceiling closure panel that a contractor can finish to match the surrounding ceiling, leaving no visible fasteners. When activated, the closure door opens and the tab-tensioned surface lowers on RF-welded tabs that keep the fabric flat edge to edge and eliminate the separation and stickiness common to older tensioning methods. This configuration uses the LVC-IV low-voltage control motor, which is intended for direct integration with low-voltage AV control systems and presentation automation. The screen supports a maximum image width up to 12' (366 cm) depending on surface selection, and the image area is fully framed in black with a standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top of the viewing area for correct image placement below the ceiling. Quick-connect wiring lets the case be installed during early construction and the screen added later, protecting the surface from job-site damage, while a detachable bottom access panel simplifies long-term service without pulling the case. This 150" model is well suited to corporate boardrooms, university lecture halls, and training rooms running scheduled AV automation. Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket or lift from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the LVC-IV motor option provide?

LVC-IV is Draper's low-voltage control motor. It is designed for direct integration with low-voltage AV control systems, allowing the screen to be raised and lowered from a control processor, keypad, or presentation automation rather than only a line-voltage switch.

Is the Ultimate Access V a tensioned screen?

Yes. The Ultimate Access V is a tab-tensioned electric screen. RF-welded tabs along both edges hold the viewing surface flat and wrinkle-free, which is important for image geometry on a large 150" diagonal in a permanent installation.

How does the ceiling closure door work?

The steel case includes a motorized trap door and a ceiling closure panel. When the screen is retracted, the panel closes flush with the ceiling to conceal the case, and a contractor can finish it to match the surrounding ceiling for a fastener-free appearance.

What projectors and mounts are compatible?

The screen works with any commercial front projector matched to its 150" 4:3 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 and wired during early construction, with the screen added later, protecting the viewing surface from job-site dust and damage.

What warranty and support are included?

The Ultimate 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.
