Overview

The Elite Screens R135DHD5 ezFrame CineGrey 5D is a fixed-frame ambient-light-rejecting projection screen engineered for environments where controlling light is impractical — living rooms with natural light, conference rooms with overhead fluorescents, or home theaters that double as family spaces. At 135" diagonal in a 16:9 aspect ratio, it covers the scale of a serious home cinema installation while the CineGrey 5D angular-reflective material does the work that blackout curtains and light management would otherwise require. The 1.5 gain and 80° viewing angle balance brightness recovery with wide audience coverage, and ISF certification validates that the screen's contribution to color accuracy meets a measurable industry standard — not a marketing claim.

The edge-free aluminum frame arrives as a 6-piece split assembly with all mounting hardware and sliding wall brackets included. The split design makes it practical to transport and install in rooms with standard door clearances — a real consideration at 117.6" wide. The sliding brackets allow horizontal centering adjustment post-hang, which reduces the precision demanded during initial mounting. Frame rigidity keeps the CineGrey 5D surface taut and flat, which matters for ALR materials where surface irregularities cause visible hotspots or banding. GREENGUARD Gold certification covers indoor emissions, relevant for installations in schools, offices, or homes with air quality sensitivities. The compatibility constraint to note firmly: this screen is specified for standard-throw projectors only — confirm your projector's throw ratio before purchasing.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • CLR/ALR technology maintains image contrast and color saturation in mixed ambient light conditions where standard projection screens produce washed-out, low-contrast images.
  • 1.5 gain compensates for the brightness reduction inherent in ambient-light-rejecting materials, keeping the image punchy without a high-output projector.
  • ISF certification means accurate color reproduction out of the box — no screen-induced color cast to fight during projector calibration.
  • 80° viewing angle ensures consistent image quality across the full width of a room without significant brightness roll-off at the edges.
  • 4K/8K Ultra HD and Active 3D ready — the screen material itself places no resolution ceiling on the projected image.

👎 Cons

  • Strictly standard-throw projector only — incompatible with ultra-short throw projectors, which eliminates a growing segment of the home theater market.
  • 135" frame assembly at 66.1" x 117.6" is a significant physical undertaking; solo installation is manageable but easier as a two-person job.
  • Fixed-frame format offers no retraction or tab-tensioning option — once installed, the screen occupies the wall space permanently.
  • No motorized or tab-tensioned version in this product line means surface flatness depends entirely on the rigid frame maintaining its geometry over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Angular-reflective ALR works by reflecting light back toward the projector's throw axis — meaning it selectively returns projected light to the audience while rejecting overhead and side ambient sources. Standard ALR screens use a simpler gray base to absorb ambient, but angular-reflective designs are more aggressive about rejection. The CineGrey 5D is specified for standard-throw projectors only; ultra-short throw projectors project from a sharply different angle and will not pair correctly with this material.
No. The CineGrey 5D's angular-reflective material is calibrated for the throw angle of standard projectors. A UST projector fires from nearly floor level at a steep upward angle, which is outside the material's reflective geometry and will result in degraded brightness and uniformity. Elite Screens makes separate ALR products designed specifically for UST units.
The 1.5 gain is optimized for ambient-light environments — it compensates for the brightness loss inherent in ALR materials while maintaining image contrast in lit rooms. In a fully dark theater, a unity-gain (1.0) white screen often produces more uniform viewing angles; the CineGrey 5D's strength is in mixed-light environments where a standard white screen would wash out.
ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) certification means the screen material has been independently tested and validated to reproduce accurate color without color shift or bias. For a calibrated system, this means the screen won't introduce a color cast that throws off a display calibration performed on a white surface — relevant if you're working with a calibrator or using a colorimeter to dial in your projector.
The split aluminum frame is designed for two-person assembly but can be managed solo with planning. Elite Screens provides installation video guides on their website. The sliding wall mount brackets allow horizontal centering adjustment after the frame is hung, which is the most useful feature for solo installation — you can hang first, then fine-tune position without redrilling.
