Product Information
Full details
This guide is for individuals looking for a stylish and high-quality frame for their artwork or photographs. The Metro Black Frame offers a modern aesthetic and durable construction, manufactured in the UK. A key benefit is its versatility, allowing for both portrait and landscape orientation and the option to use with or without the included mount. However, a minor caveat is that the plastic glass may be more prone to scratching than traditional glass.

Troubleshooting
Frame does not close properly
Ensure the image and mount (if used) are lying flat and not too thick for the frame. Check that the back clips are correctly aligned and fully secured.
Plastic glass appears smudged or streaky
Clean the plastic glass gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Mount does not fit the image correctly
Verify that the image size corresponds to the recommended size for the mount's visible aperture. The mount is designed to overlap the image edges by 3mm on each side.
Frame feels unstable when hung
Ensure the wall fixings used are appropriate for the weight of the frame and the wall type. Check that the hanging hardware on the frame is securely attached.
