How to measure for a picture frame only

 

How to measure your artwork for a picture frame without a mount

How to measure your print or artwork
for a picture frame

Firstly you need to measure the width and height of your artwork from edge to edge in millimetres as shown in the diagram, making sure you use a metal tape measure for accurate measurements.

Your frame will then be made to accommodate your print or artwork.

Discounts are available at the checkout for 5 frames or more of the exact same specifications

Next enter the exact sizes in the width and height boxes provided on our frame only option as in the example below, or by clicking here to be taken to our picture frame page. To convert inches to millimetres simply multiply by 25.4. For instance 20inches would be 20 x 25.4 = 508mm. 24.5inches would be 24.5 x 25.4 = 622mm, or use a free online conversion calculator. Don't worry about anything after the decimal point when entering your calculation.

If your artwork/photo/print measures 400mm x 300 you would enter 400mm x 300mm in the height and width boxes provided in the design studio. As with all picture frames, you will lose around 4-5mm under the lip of the frame on each edge when viewed from the front of the frame.

Important points to note:
1. Always use a proper ruler or a metal tape measure to measure your work for the most accurate results.
2. Always double check your sizes in the checkout before proceeding with your order.
3. When referring to the size of the frame we ALWAYS refer to the inside measurements or glazing size
and NOT the external measurements of the frame.
