Product Information
Full details
The Hampton Frames A4 Snap Frame in Silver is designed for users who need to frequently update displayed content, offering a quick and easy way to refresh posters, certificates, or artwork. Its main benefit is the front-loading spring mechanism for rapid changes. A potential caveat is that while it features a break-resistant front sheet, it is not glass, which might be a consideration for those preferring a traditional glass finish. Key features include a durable anodised aluminium frame, versatile viewing options with a reversible front sheet, and a complete kit for immediate wall mounting.

Is the front sheet made of glass?

Can I use this frame outdoors?
This frame is intended for indoor use. Exposure to weather conditions may damage the frame and its contents.
How do I change the picture or document?

Can I hang this frame horizontally?
Yes, the frame can be mounted either in portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal) orientation, provided you use appropriate wall fixings for the desired orientation.
What is the benefit of the reversible front sheet?
The reversible front sheet allows you to choose between an anti-reflective surface to minimize glare in bright environments, or a standard reflective surface.
Troubleshooting
Frame edges are difficult to open or close.
Ensure there is no debris caught in the snap mechanism. Gently flex the edges if they feel stiff. Avoid forcing them.
Content is not lying flat inside the frame.
Make sure the document is fully inserted and the front sheet is correctly seated. Ensure the snap edges are fully closed to apply even pressure.
The frame is not hanging straight.
Adjust the wall fixings or the hanging wire/method used to ensure the frame is level.
Display appears distorted or unclear.
Check if the break-resistant front sheet has been inserted with the correct side facing outwards for your lighting conditions (anti-reflective or standard).
