Screenline Inceiling 16:9: the motorised screen that disappears into the ceiling
Inceiling is Screenline's recessed motorised screen: it is built into the false ceiling and, when not in use, stays hidden inside a fully closed aluminium case. It is meant for meeting rooms, professional spaces and home cinema rooms.
Installation is guided by the cutting template supplied, which shows where to open the false ceiling. The fabric comes down from the front side of the case. This page covers the 16:9 version with black borders.
Key features
- 16:9 format with 5 cm black borders and a 50 cm drop
- Six sizes: base from 190 to 420 cm, diagonal from 86" to 190"
- White case
- Somfy motor as standard
- Optional Somfy motor with integrated radio (IO technology)
- Manual switch and ceiling brackets supplied
- Six projection surfaces: five for front projection and one for rear projection
The surfaces
- White Ice (front projection, gain 1.1): white fire-retardant PVC fabric, 0.40 mm thick and finely embossed, giving an even picture across a 150° viewing angle. The back is white too: best to avoid windows and lights right behind the screen.
- Home Vision (front projection, gain 1.2): white composite PVC with a black back, not transparent. The black back makes the picture sharper and higher in contrast and stops light coming from behind. It must not be used as a blackout blind: sun and heat damage it.
- Microperforated (front projection, sound-transparent, gain 1.05): lets through the sound of speakers placed behind the screen, with 0.4 mm holes you cannot see while projecting. Screenline gives 406 x 228 cm as the largest size and recommends the tensioned version.
- Grey High Contrast (front projection, gain 0.8): soft grey PVC that makes dark colours deeper; Screenline indicates it for projectors above 1,500 ANSI lumens. On Inceiling 16:9 it goes up to the 340 cm base.
- Radiance 0.6 (front projection in ambient light, gain 0.6): reflective PVC with mineral microparticles, for high-contrast projection even in a normally lit room. On Inceiling 16:9 it goes up to the 340 cm base.
- Coral (rear projection, gain 1.8): PVC for projecting from behind the screen, very bright and even, with a viewing angle above 90°. It suits fairly bright rooms with powerful projectors; direct light on the fabric cuts contrast sharply.
