How to order a picture mount

1

Enter Dimensions

Specify the outside dimensions of your mount and the aperture size you need. Make sure to leave a slight overlap so your artwork sits neatly behind the aperture.

2

Choose Mount Colour

Pick your preferred mount colour. If you’re selecting a double mount, the bottom mount is usually darker to provide a subtle outline and highlight your image.

3

Place Your Order

Complete your order online, then wait for your mount to arrive ready to frame your artwork perfectly.

How do I measure my artwork or print to order a picture mount?

Please see our How to Measure Your Artwork for a Picture Mount guide for help and advice on measuring accurately.

What materials do you use?

We use high-quality, acid-free mount board from Larson Juhl, which is 1.4mm thick white or black core conservation board — ideal for photographic and fine art presentation.

To ensure precision, we use a Gunnar computerized mount cutter, guaranteeing flawless accuracy and a professional finish that enhances your artwork.

Do you offer any discounts on picture mounts?

Custom Picture Mounts Made to Measure
 

Create fully custom picture mounts made to measure for your artwork and frame, with precision-cut apertures and professional bevelled edges. 

Our made-to-measure picture mounts ensure a perfect fit for your frame and artwork. Each mount is cut to your specifications for a clean, gallery-quality finish that enhances and protects your piece.

Design Custom Picture Mounts Online

Use our simple online picture mount design tool to create bespoke mounts for photographs, prints, certificates, or original artwork. Specify your external frame size and internal aperture, select your preferred colour and core, and receive mounts made to your exact measurements. All mounts are handcrafted in our Bedfordshire workshop, using acid-free, conservation-grade boards for long-lasting protection and a professional finish.

Mount Board Colours & Core Styles

Choose from a wide range of mount board colours: White, Ivory, and Black. Select white-core or black-core mounts to suit your frame and artwork style. Light tones create openness and a soft, spacious feel. Dark tones add contrast and focus for dramatic effect. Double mounts combine subtle outer colours with bold inner borders for gallery-style depth.

Protect Your Artwork with Bespoke Mounts

Bespoke mounts do more than enhance presentation—they protect your artwork. By creating a gap between the glass and the image, mounts help prevent smudging, sticking, and long-term discolouration. Keep your artwork in pristine condition for years to come.

Bespoke Mounts for Individuals and Professionals

We supply custom picture mounts to homeowners, artists, photographers, galleries, hotels, and corporate clients. Whether you need one bespoke mount or a bulk order, every piece is made with care and precision. Bulk orders receive up to 25% discount, making it cost-effective to stock up on your preferred mount colours and sizes.

Why Choose Our Custom Picture Mounts?

Fully made-to-measure for frames and artwork. Precision-cut bevelled edges for a professional finish. Acid-free, conservation-grade boards. Wide selection of colours and core styles. Single or double mount options for added depth. Perfect for home, gallery, or commercial display.
