For the best home theater experience possible, nothing comes close to the size and quality of the picture that a high end projector system can deliver. LCD and plasma screen TVs may be popular right now, but true home theater enthusiasts choose projection screens and a projector. A complete home theater projector screen system requires three main components.
The first is the screen, the second is the projector itself, and the third is a sound system. The project and sound system can be small and easily added to a room, but a projector screen is fairly large and takes up a lot of space. To save space and make your home theater room look neater you may want to invest in a motorized projector screen.
Motorized projector screens involve a case that holds the rolled up screen, which is mounted on the ceiling or at the top of a wall. A small and quiet motor works to raise or lower the screen when needed. A motorized electric projector screen is often operated by remote which helps to keep the screen in top condition and out of the way.
Many projector fans start out with a simple projection screen they plan to hang on a wall and roll up whenever they are not using it. However, projector screens are large and can be hard to handle, and it gets tiring to pull out, unroll, and hang up a large screen every time you simply want to enjoy your home theater system.
Traditional roll up screens have similar problems. The roll up mechanism can break, leaving the screen stranded at an unusable length or fully extended. They are noisy and can be hard to adjust to the perfect length, either stopping a few inches short or a few inches too long.
A motorized projector screen is a easy project for most home owners as well, not much more work than installing a traditional roll up screen. The case that holds the screen must be mounted securely to the ceiling using brackets.
It is also possible to set the case into the ceiling itself, for a truly impressive experience when the screen lowers down out of nowhere. Most electric motorized projector screens require a small amount of hard wiring to get electricity to the motors, but there are many options for plug and play screens that can be plugged into any normal outlet. This type of motorized projector screen may be a better choice if you may want to move the screen or buy a new home in the next few years.
