1. Preparation

 Tip: Be sure to read the included instruction manual and follow the steps it provides along with this step-by-step guide.

Note: Parts and packaging may vary from the photographs shown, depending on the specific screen model.
Warning: If you are unable to safely install the screen, consult a professional.
1. Ensure that the assembly area is clean and clear of debris and sharp objects.
2. Remove all the parts from the packaging box.
3. Verify that all the parts necessary to begin the assembly are present.

2. Splice the Upper and Lower Frame Rails

2. Secure the aluminum bar to one frame piece with two screws, then slide the other frame piece onto the aluminum bar and secure with two screws.
3. Repeat these steps for the two upper frame pieces.

3. Place the Plastic Lugs

2. Use one lug for each notch cut out in the screen. Line them up accordingly.
3. Repeat for the other three frame sections.
Note: Models with arrow stickers indicate approximate locations where the snap lugs need to be placed. Each arrow corresponds to one notch cut out of the screen material pocket - this will be important in a later step.

4. Place the Mounting Brackets

2. Slide the upper mounting brackets in the track of the upper aluminum frame.
3. Slide the lower mounting brackets in the track of the lower aluminum frame.
Note: The brackets should now be able to slide freely along the track.

5. Assemble the Frame

6. Prepare the Screen Material

2. Identify the proper-sized tensioning rods for each frame rail and set them near the assembled frame.
3. Carefully slide each tensioning rod into each screen pocket.
4. The short tensioning rods will overlap slightly in the upper pocket and lower pocket.
Warning: Do not force the rod as it may exit the pocket and puncture or scratch the viewing area of the screen.

7. Attach the Screen to the Frame

8. Install the Vertical Support Brace


9. Determine Wall Stud Locations

Note: The included mounting hardware may not be appropriate for all installation types so be sure to select the proper mounting hardware for your installation type.
1. This step applies to installation into drywall with wall studs. For other installations, please consult a professional.
2. Determine and mark the location of two studs -- in general, for normal installations the wall studs should be spaced in such a way that the weight of the screen is evenly distributed.
3. This can be accomplished by marking studs that are separated by at least one-third and up to one-half of the total width of the screen.
4. For example: if the assembled screen is 110" wide, look for two studs that are spaced between 37" to 55" apart -- in this case two studs spaced 48" apart would be ideal.

10. Determine the Mounting Bracket Locations

1. For the upper mounting brackets: Subtract 3/4" from the top of the desired frame. Mark this measurement for both stud locations - verify that these marks are level.
2. For the lower mounting brackets: Measure and record the distance from the top of one upper mounting bracket to the top of the matching lower mounting bracket on the assembled frame. Measure and mark from each upper bracket mark down to the recorded distance on both studs - verify that these marks are level.

11. Secure the Mounting Hardware

Note: This step applies to installation into drywall with wall studs. For other installations, please consult a professional.
1. For each marked upper and lower mounting bracket location, drill a pilot hole for the mounting screw to fit securely into, then secure each screw into each anchor, leaving about 1/4" of thread exposed.

12. Mount the Screen

1. Slide the mounting brackets until they line up approximately with the secured mounting hardware.
2. Lift the screen onto the secured mounting hardware so that the keyhole fitting of each mounting bracket fits over a secured screw.
3. Verify that each bracket is properly secured - remove the screen from the wall to make any necessary adjustments.

13. Adjust the Screen

1. Slide the screen to the desired horizontal position.
2. Tighten the mounting screws until the screen is secure - do not over-tighten.

Finishing Up

Your screen should now be fully assembled and mounted. Now go relax and enjoy your screen!
