In a small meeting room, a regular fixed frame projection screen may do the job. But when the room gets bigger, the problems start. People at the back can’t see clearly. The screen may have waves. And the image just doesn’t look sharp. That’s where fixed options fall short. They aren’t made for large spaces with wide viewing angles or bigger crowds.
XL Projector Screen Gives the Size You Actually Need
Big conference rooms need big screens. It’s that simple. A tiny screen in a big space feels like watching a phone from across the room. An XL projector screen fills that gap. It covers more wall space, gives every seat a better view, and keeps the content clear, even from a distance.
And it’s not just about going large. It’s about keeping the screen perfectly flat – which brings us to why tab-tensioned models are a must-have.
Tab-Tensioned Screens Stay Flat, Always
Wrinkles, curls, and saggy corners are a nightmare in large rooms. They mess up the image. Your graphs, slides, and videos don’t look clean. A tab-tensioned screen, like Draper’s Acumen XL V, is built to avoid all that. It stays tight from corner to corner.
The tension system pulls the screen evenly on all sides. Even after months or years of use, it doesn’t stretch, wave, or loosen. For important presentations and video calls, this makes a huge difference.
Fixed Screens Can’t Hide When Not in Use
Most conference rooms are used for different things — not just projection. You might have group discussions, workshops, or team lunches. A fixed-mount screen stays right there on the wall, even when you don’t need it. It takes up space and sometimes disrupts the room’s clean appearance.
On the other hand, a motorized XL Projector Screen like the Acumen® XL V disappears into its sleek case when not in use. One button, and it rolls up. The room looks neat—nothing to cover or shift around.
Portable Projector Screen Is Not a Good Long-Term Fix
Some people think they can use a portable projector screen in a large room and be done. But in reality, it’s not practical. These screens are fine for temporary setups such as a quick event or classroom. But in big rooms, they feel too small. They also take time to set up, move, and pack.
Also, they don’t stay flat like a tab-tensioned model. You’ll often see loose spots, light reflection issues, or wobbles. For daily use in conference rooms, they’re just not built for the job.

Motorized Screens Add a Touch of Class
When you walk into a meeting and the screen lowers smoothly with one button, it feels professional. It sets the tone. The Acumen® XL V comes with motorized operation that works with wall switches, remotes, and even voice commands. You can link it with systems like Alexa or Google if you want a smart setup.
This also means fewer wires, fewer manual steps, and no need to touch the screen directly. It’s clean and classy.
Draper Quality That Lasts
One reason people choose Draper’s Acumen® XL V is that it’s made for the long haul. The casing is strong. The fabric is high-quality. The motor is quiet and reliable. The tabs are welded, not just stuck on. That means less chance of damage, even after years of use.
When you’re investing in a big screen for a high-use space like a conference room, durability matters; you want something that won’t need fixing every few months.
