Measurement & Useful Tips

FRAME MEASUREMENT

The frame measurement is the glass inner size - not the overall of the frame.

Picture frames are measured by the rebate in the back of the picture frame. If you were to turn the picture frame over to see the back where the glass and picture fits you'd measure from top to bottom for one measurement i.e. 10 inches and from left to right for other measurement i.e. 8 inches.

Below sample - frame measures 20 x 8 inches (orange lines).

    APERTURE PRECISION CUT

    We cut any size aperture smaller by 0.5 inch than the photo size so the photo can sit perfectly behind the mount otherwise it will fall through the photo opening

    Example - Your photo size 6 x 4 inch we cut the aperture size to 5.5 x 3.5 inch.

    MOUNT MATERIAL

    We use the mat board thickness, 1400 microns.
    We use the finest quality white core and conservation mountboard that offers a clean, crisp bevel cut and super protection from daylight and sunlight.
    Each board is lignin free, alkaline sized, acid free, PH neutral and is calcium carbonate buffered to enhance its useful lifespan by minimising the effect of atmosphere pollutants.

    HANGING

    We recommend that you use 'Command Hanging Strips' (not supplied) for flush fitting on the wall. They are expensive but it's far much safer than hook/nail and will look neater and straighter in any room. I use the strips for all sizes, large or small at my home.
