Professional mounting techniques should be used. Stewart Filmscreen
Corporation cannot be liable for substandard or faulty installations.
Make sure that you mount the screen so that the electrical box is on the left side
(audience left).
In the standard configuration, the unit is installed on the ceiling. As an option, it
can also be installed on a wall.
Ceiling or top mount installation
The Stealth Trapdoor Electriscreen is ready to install into the ceiling or soffit. A
false ceiling is not intended to support the weight of a Stealth Trapdoor
Electriscreen.
Make sure that you mount the screen so that the electrical box is on the left side
(audience left). Refer to Figure 1.
If the unit is to be mounted to plaster, drywall, masonry, or other type of surface,
use an appropriate fastener. (These might include toggle or molly bolts or
similar fasteners.)
There are two types of ceiling or top mount: recessed or suspended. Follow the
procedure for the specified type of mounting.
Recessed or concealed mount (standard)
You can install the screen so that the motor is recessed and the bottom is flush
with dry wall or a suspended ceiling.
1. Install the unit onto the support structure making sure that the bottom
of the case is flush with the finished ceiling.
2. Make sure the unit is level.
3. Drywall or other ceiling material may be screwed directly to the
ceiling flanges (plaster "ears") on the case. Refer to Figure 2.
