Simpler as long as your floor is flat all the way up to your wall (screen).
Unfortunately for the DIY'er, this is not always the case (the building wall you're using is on the other side of a raised sidewalk, you have a short entrance ramp into your garage, etc.). So you have to get a little creative in order to get a beam aim that drops a couple of inches every 25 feet.
FWIW, I typically aim my passenger side headlight(s) a tiny bit higher than my driver side lights (but not angled 'up'). This illuminates the curb side a little further out and picks up road signs a little bit better, and staggering the beams tends to minimize dark spots caused by less-than-perfect lenses and reflectors (left side 'dark spots' and right side 'dark spots' don't overlap as much).
