Assembly/Mounting Instructions
Curved Clarion Permanently Tensioned Projection Screen by Draper
Caution
1Read instructions through completely before proceeding.
2Follow instructions carefully. Installation contrary to instructions
invalidates warranty.
3When lifting assembled screen, do not lift at only one corner; lift at
both corners. Lifting by one corner could result in damage to the
screen frame, especially on large screens.
4Screen should be accessible for complete removal should fabric become
damaged or should other service be required.
5Screen should be installed level (using a carpenter’s level).
6Nothing should be fastened to screen frame or viewing surface.
7Make sure you have received all parts (see parts list below and exploded
diagram on page 2).
8Screwdriver required for screen assembly; drill and screwdriver needed
for attachment to wall.
9The ideal temperature range for assembling folding screens to prevent
damaging the surface is 68°-78° F (20°-26° C). Assembling below
recommended temperatures may damage surface and void warranty.
NOTE: Screen has been thoroughly inspected and tested at factory and
found to be operating properly prior to shipment.

Clarion—Hardware and Parts List
Frame Preparation
1Clean area and place frame assembly pieces face down. Snap plastic
corner pieces into ends of aluminum frame extrusions as indicated in
Figures 1 through 4.
Figure 1
2Check to verify that all four (4) plastic corners are seated securely in
aluminum frame extrusion lengths (see Fig. 5). Lock in place using eight (8)
self-tapping screws.
Caution: Do not over-tighten fasteners—over-tightening could cause
damage to the frame corners.

Mounting Screen to Wall
1Determine height at which screen is to be mounted.
Please Note: Top edge of screen frame will be located ½" above mounting
bracket hole centerline when mounted to wall.
2Mark hole centerline so that brackets can be mounted parallel and at equal
height.
3Install brackets so that the outermost edges are safely within the overall
length of the aluminum frame extrusion to allow for minor horizontal screen
adjustments (hardware for mounting brackets to wall is not supplied).
4The bottom center bracket on the Curved Onyx acts as a locking bracket.
Slide the center plate up, then push the screen back against the wall,
releasing the center plate. The tongue on the center plate will then slide
down into the frame extrusion, locking the frame in place.
4Position screen slightly above brackets on wall.
Please Note: When lifting screen, do not lift at only one corner; lift at
both corners. Lifting by one corner could result in damage to the screen
frame, especially on large screens.
5Lower screen onto brackets.

Surface Preparation
1Move frame assembly out of the way, unroll viewing surface and place on
smooth/clean surface. (Orient viewing surface so that folded side of hem is
visible.)
2Insert plastic tubing inside pocket formed by hem on all 4 edges of viewing
surface (see Fig. 6).
3Divide surface retention extrusions up so they will be evenly spaced all the
way around the screen.
4Carefully slide surface retention extrusions (rounded edge visible) along
hem and onto surface on all 4 edges of fabric (see Fig. 7). Caution: Do
not allow fabric to snag on ends of extrusions. If the screen
fabric is not parallel with the surface retention extrusion, then
it may slit and tear during installation.
Please Note: To make this step easier, pinch the end of the pocket closed
before sliding it into the surface retention extrusions.
5The top and bottom of the screen should have the same number of
surface retention extrusions. The two sides should also have the same
number. This will allow even spacing all the way around the screen.
6Verify that all surface retention extrusions are installed with rounded edge
visible and are centered on surface material.
Surface to Frame Assembly
1Return frame onto clean surface, face down, and drape completed surface
assembly over completed frame profile with rounded edges of surface
retention extrusions visible.
2Hook surface retention extrusions on any side of surface to notch #2 on
corresponding side of frame extrusion (see Fig. 8).
3Repeat on opposite side of surface, again using notch #2.
4Repeat steps 2-3 with remaining edges of surface.
5Ensure surface retention extrusions are centered lengthwise in tension
slots on all 4 edges of surface.
6If additional tension in certain areas of the screen is desired, adjust surface
retention extrusions to notch #1 as necessary.
Please Note: It is not necessary to adjust more than one edge at a time to
increase surface tension.
