A3 Snap Frames – Poster Display & Advertising Boards
A3 snap frames are the perfect balance between compact and impactful poster display. Large enough for promotions, menus, or notices, yet small enough to fit in tighter spaces, they are widely used in retail, hospitality, offices, schools, healthcare settings, and public venues. The snap-open design means graphics can be changed in seconds—keeping your messaging fresh and professional.
Each A3 poster frame comes with a UV-resistant cover to reduce glare and fading. Popular finishes include black for a modern aesthetic or silver for a timeless corporate look. For secure outdoor options, explore our lockable poster cases or browse the full snap frame collection.
