Product Information
Full details
This guide is for individuals looking for a stylish, modern, and UK-manufactured frame for their photos or artwork. The Metro frame's key benefit is its versatility, allowing for both portrait and landscape orientation and use with or without its included mount. A potential consideration is that it comes with plastic glass, not traditional glass.

FAQs
What material is the "glass" made of?
The frame comes with protective plastic glass, not traditional glass.
Can I hang this frame horizontally and vertically?
Yes, the frame is designed to be hung in either portrait or landscape orientation.
What is the purpose of the mount?
The included mount provides a professional border for your image and is cut 3mm smaller on each side to prevent the edge of your artwork from being exposed when framed.
Where is this frame manufactured?
This frame is manufactured in the UK.
What are the dimensions of the frame moulding?
The frame moulding is 39mm wide and 15mm deep.
Can I use the frame without the mount?
Yes, the frame can be used with or without the included mount.
How should I clean the frame?
Clean the plastic glass with a soft, damp cloth and the frame moulding with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
Troubleshooting
Plastic glass appears scratched
Gently clean with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or harsh chemicals.
Frame backing is difficult to secure
Ensure artwork and mount (if used) are evenly placed and not too thick. Gently re-align the backing clips.
Mount does not fit photo correctly
Verify the photo size matches the intended opening for the mount. The mount is designed to slightly overlap the photo edges.
Frame hangs unevenly
Ensure the hanging hardware on the frame and the wall fixture are properly aligned and securely fastened. Adjust as needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Open the frame backing.
- If using the mount, place your image onto the mount and then insert both into the frame.
- If not using the mount, place your image directly into the frame.
- Secure the frame backing.
- Attach hanging hardware (not included) suitable for your wall type.
- Hang the frame in your desired orientation (portrait or landscape).
Compatibility:
- Accommodates artwork or photos that fit within the frame's internal dimensions (considering the mount if used).
- Suitable for paper-based prints, photographs, and lightweight artwork.
Care:
- Clean the plastic glass with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels, which can scratch the plastic.
- Wipe the frame moulding with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Ensure the frame is completely dry afterward.
- Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent fading of the artwork and potential yellowing of the plastic glass over time.
