FAQs

What material is the 'glass' made of?

The frame comes with plastic glass, which is a lighter and more shatter-resistant alternative to traditional glass.

Can I use this frame without the mount?

Yes, the frame is designed to be used with or without the included black mount. You can remove the mount to frame larger items or achieve a different look.

What are the external dimensions of the frame moulding?

The frame moulding itself is 39mm wide and 15mm deep.

Is the frame suitable for children's rooms?

Yes, the plastic glass makes it a safer option for areas where breakage is a concern, such as children's rooms or high-traffic hallways.

Can I hang the frame horizontally and vertically?

Absolutely. The frame is designed to be hung in either portrait or landscape orientation.

Where is this frame manufactured?

The Metro frame is manufactured to high standards in our factory in the UK.

How is the mount sized?

The black mount is cut from 1.3mm white core mountboard and is made 3mm smaller on both sides to ensure the edge of your image is not exposed when framed.

Troubleshooting

Frame arrives with damaged plastic glass

Contact customer support immediately with details of the damage. Inspect the frame for any other issues before attempting to use it.

Mount does not fit correctly

Ensure you are using the correct size frame and that the artwork is positioned properly within the mount. Double-check that the mount itself is not warped or damaged.

Difficulty hanging the frame securely

Use appropriate wall fixings (e.g., screws, wall plugs) suitable for your wall type (plasterboard, brick, etc.). Ensure the hanging hardware on the frame is securely attached.

Plastic glass is smudged or scratched

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth. For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild, non-abrasive cleaner on the cloth, not directly on the plastic. Avoid paper towels, which can cause scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Carefully open the back of the frame to remove any protective materials.
  2. If using the mount, place your artwork or photo face down on a clean surface.
  3. Position the mount over your artwork, ensuring it is centered.
  4. Place the artwork and mount into the frame.
  5. Secure the backing of the frame.
  6. Attach the hanging hardware to the back of the frame if not already present.
  7. Hang the frame on your wall using appropriate fixings for your wall type.

Compatibility:

  • Size: Designed for items that fit a 40 x 50CM frame. The mount is cut to accommodate artwork slightly larger than the visible aperture, ensuring a clean presentation within the frame.
  • Orientation: Compatible with both portrait and landscape hanging.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the frame gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Cleaning the Plastic Glass: Use a soft microfibre cloth, similar to cleaning a computer screen. For tougher smudges, a mild glass cleaner or a solution of water and a drop of dish soap can be used sparingly on the cloth, not directly on the plastic. Ensure the cloth is not overly wet to prevent moisture from seeping into the frame.
