Screens are everywhere now—churches, shops, malls, and even small community halls. But not every screen looks the same. Some grab your attention the moment you walk in. Others fade into the background. One of the biggest reasons for this difference is the type of projection screen being used.
More and more people are moving away from bulky framed screens. Instead, they’re choosing edge-free or borderless screens that blend into the wall and still show a bright, clear image. These borderless setups are making a big difference—especially in churches and retail spaces.
What Is a Borderless Projection Screen?
A borderless screen, like Draper’s Edgeless Clarion, doesn’t have a thick black frame around it. The viewing surface wraps around the back, giving it a clean, flat, and modern appearance—much like a giant flat-panel TV. It doesn’t stick out or distract from the visuals. That’s why people like it. It looks neat and fits in with any space.
Whether you’re showing hymn lyrics, sermons, sale offers, or video clips, this kind of screen lets the message shine without any extra clutter.
Fixed Frame Projection Screens Are Still Popular
Now, let’s be clear. A fixed frame projection screen is still an excellent option for many places. It provides a strong, perfectly flat viewing surface that remains stable and unyielding. It’s ideal for people who need a permanent setup—like in conference rooms, home theaters, or classrooms.
But when appearance matters a lot—like in fashion stores or church stages—people want something that disappears into the background. That’s where borderless screens come in.
Why Churches Love the Borderless Look
Churches are choosing edgeless screens because they don’t distract from what’s happening on stage. Worship sessions, video sermons, and choir lyrics all show up clearly. And since there’s no thick frame, the screen doesn’t take away from the calm and peaceful setting.
Some churches also use screens with soft LED lighting at the back. This adds a gentle glow, making the whole area feel warm and welcoming. Screens like the Profile+ or Edgeless Clarion also offer this option.
Retail Shops Want Cleaner Displays
Retail spaces need to catch people’s eyes, but not in a noisy way. A fixed frame projection screen with a thick border can look too much in a modern store. It feels bulky and old-fashioned.
With a borderless screen, the content stands out—not the screen itself. When you show a product demo, a flash sale, or a welcome message, people focus only on that: no borders, no edges, no fuss.
Also, shops often change their layout. Screens like Draper’s Profile+ are light and modular, which means they’re easy to move and re-install if needed.
What About Electric Screens?
In some places, you might want a screen that rolls up when not in use. That’s where an electric projector screen works better. It rolls down when you need it and hides away when you don’t. This is common in multipurpose halls or classrooms.
But for churches and shops where the screen is part of the main setup, you may not need an electric projector screen. Borderless fixed screens stay up all the time and look good even when not in use.
Still, in certain spots—like behind a worship stage or at the back of a retail showroom—an electric projector screen can be a good choice if you want that flexibility.
Clean Setup, Clean Experience
Nobody likes messy wires or uneven screens. With Draper’s borderless models, the setup is clean. The mounting system is simple, the tension stays even, and the picture stays flat from every angle.
These small things matter. If a screen is wobbly or the frame is bent, the whole display looks off. Borderless fixed screens avoid these problems and keep things looking sharp.

Final Thoughts
Churches and shops don’t just need screens—they need the right ones. A borderless projection screen looks modern, fits into any space, and shows your message without getting in the way.
So, whether you’re displaying scripture in a church or showcasing new arrivals in your store window, consider what the screen looks like when it’s on—and when it’s not.
Borderless is clean. Borderless is simple. And in today’s world, less is often more.
