Choose from multiple styles
Aperture Mount & Frame
Typically a traditional type of Framing style, your artwork is protected by a mount which creates a border between the artwork and the frame. The style of mount can be use in a number of ways to create an impactful piece.
Flat Float Mount & Frame
This style is ideal for showing the entire piece of Artwork, especially when the artwork has tapered edges which add to the effect of the framed piece.
Shadow Float mount & Frame
Similar to the Flat float but the Artwork is lifted by foam core giving the visual effect that it is floating in the frame. This is a Popular way to make your artwork a real statement.
Shadow Mount & Frame
A shadow Mount is created by using two mounts with a foam core between them to create a gap. This additional depth draws the viewer into the artwork and gives it another dimension.
Straight To Frame
For straight forward framing or when the artwork is particularly large, this technique is used when artwork wrinkling can be seen. By using this method along with dry mounting it helps prevent cockling and gives a perfect flat appearance.
Box Frame
A box frame is typically used when framing items of depth. Wooden spacers or mount colour matching spacers are used to line the inside of the frame. By doing this it creates enough room to accommodate the item you wish to frame.
Canvas Stretched
When a canvas is stretched over stretcher bars and pinned in place at the back of the stretcher bar, there are two main ways to do this:
Gallery wrap: The image is stretched around the edge.
White edge wrap: The image is visible to the edge, but the edges are left unpainted or taped white to give a clean appearance.
Canvas Stretched & Float frame
A float frame is when a stretched canvas is placed in an L shaped frame to give it a framed border. Like normal frames, Float frames come in many different styles and have the ability to create amazing results.
Choose the right glass
Is the artwork valuable or irreplaceable? How light is the room it’s going in?
We will make sure your artwork is framed correctly for however you want to display it
Regular Glass
2mm Float glass is perfect for all standard framing and is ideal for low cost glazing.
Art Glass
Artglass also known as AR70 Is a specialised glass designed to reduce reflection and provides 70% UV protection against harmful rays.
Hanging Fixings
D-Rings
D-rings and cord are used to create a hanging point on the back of the frame.
The cord stretches from one side of the frame to the other, giving you the option to hang it from one point in the middle or two points spaced evenly apart.
Security Fittings
Security fixings are ideal for when Artwork is being displayed in a public area or private accommodation rooms.
In order to remove the frame it works by using a T shaped security screw with a T-screw spanner, this slips behind the frame and when turned it locks into the slotted plate which holds it securely.
To release, simply use the spanner to unlock the screw.
Strap Hangers
Strap hangers are used on heavier or larger frames where extra support is needed. For best results, it is advisable to have two points of connection on the wall in order to evenly distribute the weight load.
Table top & Standing
For smaller frames where you would like them to be standing on a surface as opposed to hanging. A table top stand is a perfect solution.
