Here's how I would do it: 1. For the projector, get 2 of the same bracket - eg. this one: http://www.selbyacoustics.com.au/storef ... =150703466 ... where you can detach the bottom half of the bracket - the half that is permanently attached to the projector itself, and move that between two permanently mounted top halfs (one inside and one outside). Re-zooming and focussing will be a snap. You'd obviously need/want all of the cabling installed in both locations also. 2. For the screen you could have a manual pull-down or a motorised one. It would want to come with a pretty quick mounting method (eg. maybe something as simple as a couple of loops for a pair of mounted hooks in each location?). For a motorised you would need a power-point in each location, and it really should have RF control - that way there shouldn't be any cable and receiver to worry about (like it would have if it was IR control).
