Art board frames are perfect for paintings or artwork painted directly on board up to 5mm thick. The artwork fits into the front recess of the art board frame, so all of your artwork is visible at the front of the frame.

The frames come in 2 outside depths of 29mm or 47mm and are supplied with Velcro for fitting the artwork to the frame, although for extra safety it is advisable to glue the artwork to the frame.

Inset Art Board Frames - Frequently Asked Questions

What are inset frames used for?

Inset frames are perfect for paintings or artworks on rigid boards (up to 5 mm thick) where the art board sits in the front recess of the frame. They’re popular with artists, galleries, and photographers.

Is glazing included?

No. These frames are specifically designed to display artworks without glazing, making them ideal for textured or painted surfaces.

Do you offer different depths?

Yes – we offer two standard depths: 29 mm and 47 mm.

How do I secure the artwork in the frame?

Each frame includes strong Velcro tabs to hold your board in place. For additional strength, we strongly recommend adding a small amount of glue.

What is included with the frame?

Each frame comes with Velcro tabs to securely hold your board in place, and a canvas hanger on the back to keep the frame flush against the wall. Please note, a wall hook is required but not included.

Can I return the frame if it doesn't suit my artwork?

All our frames are made to measure and therefore we are unable to accept returns or exchanges on correctly supplied goods.

How long does it take to deliver my frame?

We aim to dispatch all orders within 2–4 working days. Shipping to some parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland may take 2 days in transit.

Do you deliver inset frames internationally?

I’m sorry, but we currently only deliver within the UK, including Northern Ireland.

Do you offer discounts on bulk orders?

Yes, we offer discounts of up to 25% on bulk purchases of the same specifications. Please click the ‘Show available discounts’ button below the price to see available savings.
