FAQs
What material is the 'glass' made of?
The frame uses a protective plastic sheet instead of traditional glass.
Can I buy a frame in a different color?
This guide is specific to the Metro White Frame - White. Please check other product listings for different color options.
What are the exact dimensions of the mount opening?
The mount is cut 3mm smaller on each side than the overall frame size to ensure the edges of your image are not exposed. Specific opening dimensions would depend on the frame size ordered.
How do I hang the frame securely?
You will need to provide your own appropriate hanging hardware suitable for your wall type. Attach this hardware to the frame's backing or use the frame's built-in hanging points if available.
Can I replace the plastic glass with real glass?
While not designed for it, some users may attempt to fit real glass. However, this is not recommended as the frame is built to accommodate plastic and may not be suitable for the weight or fit of glass.
What is the depth of the frame moulding?
The frame moulding measures 15mm deep.
Troubleshooting
Frame is difficult to open
Gently use a flat-edged tool to ease open the backing clips. Ensure you are not forcing them.
Plastic glass is scratched
Clean gently with a soft cloth and a plastic-appropriate cleaner. Minor scratches may be unavoidable with plastic.
Mount does not fit image perfectly
The mount is cut 3mm smaller on each side to ensure edges are covered. You may need to trim your image slightly or use the frame without the mount.
