Electric
This is a motorized projection screen that can be rolled down when needed and concealed by being rolled up with the use of a button or a remote control. When planning a home entertainment viewing environment that is also used for other purposes, this could be a good choice combined with a motorized projector lift, so that both components can be concealed when not in use.

Fixed
Also known as fixed-frame, these projector screens are permanently mounted into the wall or cabinetry and are a good choice for a dedicated home entertainment environment where no concealment of the screen is required.

Manual
These projection screens are manually retractable, and can be pulled down or concealed within a dedicated housing with the use of an attached handle.

Portable
These projection screens are provided with a dedicated tripod mount and can be carried around and placed in any environment.

Rear Projection
These projection screens are a part of a Projection system that requires that the projector will be concealed within a cavity in the wall behind them. These can be a good choice for home entertainment or business environments in which the concealment of everything that is not directly viewable is required.
