Product Information
Full details
The Frames By Post Metro White Frame is designed for individuals looking to stylishly display photos or artwork. Its key benefit is a versatile, modern aesthetic with high-quality UK manufacturing. A potential caveat is the use of plastic glass, which may not appeal to all users. This frame offers a clean white finish, a 39mm wide x 15mm deep moulding, and includes a removable white core mount cut 3mm smaller on each side to ensure image coverage. It can be hung in either portrait or landscape orientation.

FAQs
What material is the 'glass' made of?
The frame uses plastic glass, which is lighter and safer than traditional glass.
Can I hang the frame both vertically and horizontally?
Yes, the frame is designed to be hung in both portrait and landscape orientations.
What are the external dimensions of the frame moulding?
The moulding itself is 39mm wide and 15mm deep.
How is the mount sized?
The white core mount is cut 3mm smaller on each side to ensure the edge of your image is not exposed when framed.
Is assembly required?
No, the frame comes ready to accept your artwork. You simply need to open the back, insert your item, and close it.
Where is this frame manufactured?
This frame is manufactured to the highest quality in the UK.
Can I use the frame without the mount?
Yes, the frame can be used with or without the included mount.
Troubleshooting
Frame backing is difficult to open.
Gently pry open the tabs holding the backing in place using a flat, blunt object. Be careful not to damage the frame.
Image appears slightly smaller than expected within the mount.
This is intentional. The mount is cut 3mm smaller on each side to hold the image securely and prevent the edges from showing. If your image is slightly larger, you may need to trim it carefully or use a different mounting method.
Plastic glass has a minor scratch.
Try gently buffing the scratch with a soft microfiber cloth. For deeper scratches, replacement plastic glass may be necessary, or consider using the frame without the plastic insert if the artwork is not susceptible to dust.
Frame does not hang straight.
Ensure the wall hook or nail is level and securely fastened. Check that the hanging mechanism on the frame is correctly attached and balanced.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Stylish and modern appearance.
- Manufactured to a high standard in the UK.
- Flexible hanging orientation (portrait/landscape).
- Includes a custom-cut mount for a professional look.
- Durable and lightweight plastic glass.
Cons
- Plastic glass may scratch more easily than real glass.
- The specific shade of white may not match all decor.
- Mount opening size is fixed and may not fit all standard photos precisely without cropping.
- Frame depth might be insufficient for very thick artwork.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Carefully open the frame backing.
- Place your image onto the backing board, or inside the provided mount.
- If using the mount, position your image behind it, ensuring it is centered.
- Secure the frame backing.
- Attach hanging hardware (not included) or use the integrated hooks if present.
- Hang the frame in your desired orientation (portrait or landscape).
Compatibility:
- The frame is designed to hold standard photo and artwork sizes. Check the specific internal dimensions if available, though generally, the mount accommodates common print sizes like 6x4 inches, with the frame itself suitable for larger pieces when the mount is removed.
- The white core mount is cut 3mm smaller on each side than the frame's internal dimensions to ensure the image is held securely and edges are not visible.
Care:
- Clean the plastic glass with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels which can cause scratches.
- Dust the frame moulding with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
- Ensure the frame is securely hung to prevent accidents.
