Site Preparation
Because every home theater installation is unique, it is impossible to provide detailed,
step-by-step instructions that are applicable to every situation. Instead, this section
provides general guidelines for site construction and product installation. Review this
information carefully and adapt it as needed to your installation requirements.
The instructions in this section describe how to prepare a dedicated home theater for a
CineWall installation. Throughout these instructions, the following “typical” conditions are
assumed:
• Wall thickness: 3 inches (76.2 mm) minimum, 7 inches (177.8 mm) maximum
• Stud spacing: 24 inches (609.6 mm)
• Wall finishing material: Sheetrock or other suitable material
• Screen position: Centered horizontally between two studs 96 inches (2438.4 mm)
apart
Shown below is a typical wall. It is 12 feet wide, with the studs spaced 24 inches apart.
The shaded area represents the opening you will need to create for the CineWall.
Consult a qualified structural engineer or architect before
making any modifications to a load-bearing wall.
