Doing your own screen design is neither weird or unusual. Regardless if it’s a professional installer or a DIY who knows what to do, building your own screen is a great project and Elite has the materials you need to get the job done.

• 11:06:32 AM       Customer – Looking for Cinewhite screen material (without frame).  I see you have a 165″ size.
