The Metro Dark Grey Frame with Red Mount offers a modern aesthetic and high-quality UK manufacturing, allowing for both portrait and landscape orientation and the option to use with or without its provided mount.

FAQs
What are the external dimensions of the frame?
The external dimensions will depend on the size of the artwork you are framing. The moulding itself is 39mm wide and 15mm deep.
Can I use this frame for canvas prints?
This frame is designed for flat artwork and photographs. Its 15mm depth may not accommodate canvas frames which are typically thicker.
How do I clean the frame itself?
Wipe the frame with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a cloth very slightly dampened with water, and dry immediately.
Is the red mount replaceable?
While the mount is designed to be used with the frame, custom mounts can be ordered separately if a different colour or size is desired.
What type of glass is used?
The frame comes with standard glass for clarity and protection.
Can the frame be used outdoors?
This frame is intended for indoor use only. Exposure to the elements can damage the materials and finish.
Troubleshooting
Frame does not stand securely.
Ensure the stand mechanism is fully extended and locked into place. Check that the frame is on a stable, level surface.
Glass is smudged or dirty.
Clean the glass with a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water or glass cleaner. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the frame.
Artwork is not visible through the mount.
Ensure the artwork is positioned correctly behind the mount's opening. Double-check that the mount is oriented correctly and that the artwork is not obscured by backing material.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Manufactured to high standards in the UK.
- Offers versatile portrait and landscape display.
- Allows for use with or without the included mount.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your frame, carefully open the back panel and insert your artwork. Ensure the artwork is placed flat against the included glass. If using the mount, position your artwork behind it, ensuring the mount's aperture frames the image correctly. The frame can be hung using suitable hardware (not included) or placed on a flat surface using its stand. Compatibility is with standard paper-based artwork and photographs. Clean the glass and frame with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
