Ask yourself these four questions:
1. Do I have a dark viewing environment or do I have low, moderate or bright light concerns?
2. Do I have specialty requirements such as; 3D Projection, Rear Projection or Acoustically Transparent?
3. Will I be using my projector screen indoors or outdoors where it needs to be mildew resistant?
4. What kind of frame will I be building to install my screen material?
a. A ready-made fixed frame kit with the screen material tension-mounted/stretched onto the frame
b. A permanent, wooden fixed-frame with the screen material tension-mounted/stretched onto the frame
c. A portable frame (kit or truss system) where the screen is tension-mounted, but can be easily removed
d. Attach it directly onto the wall, permanently, without building a frame or a roll down application
