Frequently Asked Questions
What is a snap frame?
A snap frame is a type of poster frame where all four sides of the frame clip open by hand. This allows you to change the poster from the front without taking the frame off the wall.
What size is an A4 frame?
An A4 size frame is designed to hold a standard sheet of printer paper (210 x 297mm). The actual frame dimensions will be slightly larger due to the aluminium border.
Do you sell A2 paper size frames?
Yes. We stock A2 paper size frames (420 x 594mm). This is a popular size for medium posters and promotional signage in retail windows.
Can I use these as picture frames?
Yes. While designed for posters, many customers use them as modern, industrial-style picture frames for photos or art prints because they are easy to use and have a sleek metal finish.
Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Standard snap frames are for indoor use. For outdoors, you must choose our Weather Resistant or Waterproof range, which features rubber seals to keep your frames for printing dry.
How do I fit the frame to the wall?
Installation is easy. Open the snap edges to reveal the screw holes hidden underneath. We supply screws and wall plugs with every frame. Simply mark the wall, drill, and fix securely.
Is the cover sheet included?
Yes. Every frame comes with a flexible, anti-glare PVC cover sheet. This protects your poster from UV fading, dust, and scratches.
What colour frames do you have?
While Silver is the standard, we also stock Black, White, Red, Blue, and Green frames, as well as wood-effect finishes to match any decor.
