Draper Ultimate Access XL V – 250", NTSC – 145020U

Product Overview

The Draper Ultimate Access XL V is a large-format, ceiling-recessed, tab-tensioned projection screen with a motorized closure panel that fully conceals a big image behind a finished ceiling line with no visible fasteners. This 250" NTSC (4:3) model is built for major venues such as conference centers, ballrooms, and auditoriums that need an expansive screen and a clean architectural ceiling. As a motorized, tab-tensioned projection screen, it holds a flat viewing surface across a wide image for accurate, distortion-free projection in high-attendance rooms. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Ultimate Access XL V large-venue projection screen combines expansive image sizes with fully concealed, fastener-free integration. The case measures 14-1/16" high x 11" deep (36 cm x 28 cm) including the trim flange and supports image widths up to 22' (671 cm) depending on surface selection, with this unit configured at a 250" NTSC diagonal. An independently motorized ceiling closure panel opens into the case for deployment and closes flush when the screen retracts; the panel can be finished by a contractor to match the surrounding ceiling. The tab-tensioned design uses RF-welded tabs that eliminate stickiness and tab separation to hold the large surface flat and wrinkle-free, and the image area is fully framed in black with a standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top. The case installs during early construction with the screen added later to reduce the risk of job-site damage, and a junction box with a 110V three-position wall switch is included for recessed wall mounting. This configuration ships with a low-voltage LVC-IV motor for simple low-voltage triggering, with 220V and additional control options available for integration with third-party control systems such as Crestron and Control4. Pair it with a unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket or lift from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.
