Product Information
Full details
This Metro Black Frame with Pink Mount is ideal for individuals looking to stylishly display photographs or artwork. Its key benefit is the versatility of being able to hang either portrait or landscape, and use it with or without the included pink mount. A minor caveat is that it features plastic glass, not real glass, which may affect clarity for some users.

FAQs
What material is the 'glass' made of?
The frame uses durable plastic glass for safety and weight reduction.
Can I use this frame for documents or certificates?
Yes, you can use the frame without the mount for documents or certificates, provided they fit the frame's internal dimensions.
What are the exact outer dimensions of the frame?
The product information specifies the moulding width as 39mm and depth as 15mm. Exact outer dimensions depend on the size of the photo/artwork it is designed to hold.
How is the mount designed to fit the image?
The mount is cut from 1.3mm white core mountboard and is 3mm smaller on each side compared to the frame's aperture. This ensures the edge of your image is not exposed when framed.
Can I replace the plastic glass with real glass?
While not designed for it, modifications to replace the plastic glass with real glass may be possible, but this is not recommended and would void any warranty. It may also affect the frame's structural integrity.
Is the pink mount removable?
Yes, the frame is designed to be used with or without the mount.
Where is this frame manufactured?
This frame is manufactured to the highest quality in the company's factory in the UK.
Troubleshooting
Frame is difficult to open
Ensure all backing clips are fully released. If clips are stiff, gently flex them to loosen.
Image or mount does not fit correctly
Double-check the dimensions of your image and the mount opening. The mount is intentionally cut 3mm smaller on each side; ensure your image is not too large for this or consider if you should use the frame without the mount.
Plastic glass appears smudged or cloudy
Clean the plastic glass gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Frame is not hanging straight
Adjust the hanging fixture on the wall or ensure the frame is properly seated on the hook or nail.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Open the frame by releasing the backing clips.
- If using the mount, place your image face down and position the mount over it. Ensure the image is aligned correctly within the mount's opening.
- Carefully place the mounted image (or just the image if not using the mount) into the frame, ensuring it is centered.
- Replace the backing and secure the clips.
- Hang the frame using appropriate wall fixings, ensuring it is secure in either portrait or landscape orientation.
Compatibility:
- This frame is designed to hold standard print sizes that fit within its dimensions, accommodating the included mount or no mount.
- The mount is suitable for images where a 3mm border on each side is acceptable for framing.
Care:
- Clean the plastic glass with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels, which can scratch the surface.
- Wipe the frame moulding with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
- Ensure the frame is kept in a dry environment to prevent damage to the backing board.
