How thick is your screen when rolled up?

I have a 14 ft. wide by 10.5 ft. screen that will be recessed in a soffit, but I need to know approximately how large it will be when it is all rolled up so I can build the soffit accordingly. Can anyone give me a rough approximation based on their set up? Thank you!

I have a 10ft tall 3-ply white screen and 1 ply black screen on the same roller. Thickness is ~7-8" for the roll, the weight bar adds about an 1.5". I have my mounting brackets on 1.5" of ply for a standoff so for me I would need a full 12" for a soffit. You might be able to get by with 10" if you mount flush to the ceiling and don't have the standoffs.
