Product Information
Full details
The Metro Frame with White Mount is an ideal choice for photographers, artists, and homeowners looking for a sleek, modern display solution for 40 x 50cm prints. Crafted in the UK, this light grey frame offers a professional aesthetic through its precision-cut white core mountboard; however, users should note that the frame includes high-quality plastic glass rather than traditional silica glass, which prioritizes safety and weight reduction over absolute scratch resistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Metro Frame, ensure you have a clean workspace. Remove the backing board by disengaging the clips, place your print centered against the mount, and secure it with archival tape if necessary. Reattach the backing to the frame moulding, ensuring all clips are flush against the wood. To maintain the frame, dust the moulding periodically with a dry, soft cloth. When cleaning the plastic front, avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels, which can cause micro-scratches. Instead, use a gentle lens cleaner and a soft cloth to maintain clarity.
