Learn What Makes Our Framing Process So Special
Our designers work with you one-on-one to find the right combination that fits your style and budget. We learn about your taste and what you expect your piece to manifest and evoke once it hangs on your wall.
MATTING
The mat in custom framing is not just a pretty border. It also has important practical purposes. It can be designed with a bevel, a reversed bevel, or as a float mount. Mats come in hundreds of colors, textures, and sizes. The options are endless. They can also be used as a protection for the artwork, avoiding direct contact with the glazing.
MOUNTING
Mounting is the method used for holding your artwork in place within a frame. Every project takes a different method. It helps preserve your artwork and enables a more professional presentation.
CUTTING THE GLAZING
The art or process of cutting GLASS or ACRYLIC. The glazing maximizes the longevity; there are different coatings such as UV-protection, non-glare, and museum-grade.
CUTTING THE MOLDING
Whether it is a traditional or metal frame, four pieces of molding are cut at 45-degree angles on the ends to make a picture frame.
JOINING
The 4 pieces of molding are joined together. This process is used for wood frames only.
FITTING & FINISHING
The components are secured with the framer's pointers, the dust cover paper backing is attached, and the mounting hardware is applied.
