Screens marketed as ceiling-light-rejecting for UST use are directional. Confirm the exact material and projector combination rather than relying on CLR as a universal specification.
01Understand which light is being rejected
A material designed to reject overhead light may behave differently with light entering from the sides or behind the viewers. Review the manufacturer’s optical guidance and test the intended lighting arrangement.
02Keep the image plane flat and correctly oriented
UST light reaches the screen at a steep angle, making surface irregularities and alignment errors conspicuous. Use the specified frame or tensioning system and follow the marked orientation.
03Order the screen and furniture together
The screen’s visible bottom edge, frame and cabinet height must suit the projector’s installation drawing. Check centre-speaker space and airflow before ordering joinery.
