Both – Artscreens are custom made based on the TV make and model then the frame and art selection. There is an Off-The-Shelf version called Studio Series, but it still requires you to select your frame and art, it is universally sized.

Artscreen can be made to be recessed or surface mounted.
Recessed, we give you the ability to mount it into the frame. Surface, you supply the mount.
Studio Series is sold only as a surface mount.

We manufacture Art Frames in our factory in Coral Springs, Florida.  We stock most popular frames, the canvas is printed in-house, and the housing is customized for your order by our engineering team. By manufacturing ourselves, we are able to ship quickly, usually 1 – 2 weeks. It could be longer if there is a delay in you signing your artwork sign off or on the rare occasion that we don’t have the frame material in stock.

We recommend you buy your Artscreen from a Vutec authorized audio visual dealer as they can do both carpentry and electric. You can also visit a Magnolia Design Center located in many Best Buys to see and purchase the Artscreen.

You need an electrician and a carpenter or an authorized AV dealer who has both.

The quickest way to locate an installer is to contact us for an authorized ArtScreen dealer closest to you, or if you are in the USA, locate a Magnolia Design Studio, at a Best Buy.

The TV/Screen and Installation costs are not included in your Artscreen Purchase.

When recessed we include a mounting assembly, when surfaced the TV mount is not included.

Yes, the Artscreen comes with a one year warranty.

Yes, you can order and replace any frame and art as long as the TV or screen has not changed in size.

Yes, some customers order multiple remounted art rolls and change them with the seasons.

You can change the art yourself. There are only two components, a molex plug and two screws. You may however, have to adjust the limit settings for the motor so the art lines up with the frame properly.

If you purchase a thinner TV by depth and it is the same size there should not be a problem. If you purchase a thicker or larger, you will need a new Artscreen. If uncertain, contact us.

You do not need a false wall, but you can if you want to conceal other entertainment equipment such as speakers, electronics etc.

Yes an Artscreen can be installed over a fireplace. Consider that if there is no mantle over the fireplace, the heat will rise and reach the Artscreen and TV. If it is a regular fireplace with a chimney, ensure you have insulation protecting the TV from the heat. We recommend you have it reviewed by the dealer/installer.

We don’t recommended you do, however an Artscreen can be installed on external porches as long as it is not exposed to negative weather elements.

Artscreens are located in many places, private boats and yachts, cruise ships, private airplanes, in boardrooms, conference rooms, CEO offices, product showrooms, government offices, private estates, kitchens, lounge rooms, home theaters, bedrooms, children’s play rooms, hallways and various other locations.

Yes, only if you are also ordering an Artscreen then you can order a frame and art, some customers do this as they would like to have art on either side of their Artscreen.

The Artscreen Studio Series is a universally sized product, it is not a custom made product, it is based on standard TV sizes. The Studio Series goes over a flat panel TV or projection screen on the surface of the wall. Its function is to hide the TV or screen with the decorative piece of art in a decorative frame. The Studio Series is our most competitively priced Artscreen as it requires minimal customization. The price of the Studio Series depends on the size of the TV.
