Precision Behind the Screen:

What Are Screen Frames — and Why Do They Matter?

A screen frame is the structural system that supports projection surfaces — often behind-the-scenes, but absolutely critical to the visual quality, sound performance, and safety of the installation.

From small format teaching simulators to large-scale 3D theatres, Hall Stage provides engineered screen frames that deliver:

  • Precise curvature or flatness
  • Acoustic transparency
  • Quick and modular installation
  • Durability over years of use
  • Bespoke dimensions and profiles

Who Uses Our Screen Frames?

Cinemas â€“ Independent and chain theatres seeking a robust frame for main screens or smaller projection rooms.
Simulation & Training â€“ Military, aerospace and motorsport clients using curved screens for cockpit or driver training.
Immersive AV & Virtual Production â€“ Studios requiring screens for LED integration or projection mapping.
Education & Corporate â€“ Lecture theatres and conference facilities with rear-projection or ambient-light display needs.

Modular and Made to Measure

We use high-grade materials and fittings that allow for:

  • Flat, curved, or compound curves
  • Wall-mounted or suspended systems
  • Surface-fix or stretched projection skins
  • Compatibility with acoustically transparent fabrics

Our approach is always tailored. From initial drawings through to on-site install or delivery, we adapt to your technical needs, timelines, and building constraints.

“Our screen frames are not just structures — they’re part of the visual language of the space. Clean lines, precise tolerances, and quiet strength.” – Hall Stage Technical Team

  • Custom sizes and shapes â€“ Built to fit any space
  • Easy assembly â€“ Delivered in kit form with instructions or on-site support
  • Long life, low maintenance â€“ Suitable for permanent and touring use

Planning a Screen Installation?

Hall Stage collaborates with architects, integrators, AV consultants and venue managers to deliver fit-for-purpose frame solutions.

Whether you’re in the early design phase or retrofitting an older setup, we can advise on:

  • Frame spec & sizing
  • Mounting and rigging options
  • Screen fabric compatibility
  • Transport and site access planning

FAQs

Q: Can you supply curved screen frames for simulation?

Yes — we regularly produce curved and compound curved frames for flight, racing, and training simulators.

Do your frames support acoustic projection screens?

Absolutely. We design with both sound performance and image clarity in mind.

Can the screen frames be disassembled for touring or relocation?

Yes, our modular systems are ideal for venues that require portability or reconfiguration.
