Picture Frame & Mount Designer

Welcome to our picture frame and mount designer application. Here you can design your perfect frame and mount combination from our range of over 500 different picture frame mouldings. Basic ordering instructions are detailed below, but for more information about specific application tools please click the help icons above.

• Start Tab - Enter the size of your artwork. Optionally you can upload an image to preview how the finished item will look.
• Mounts Tab - Use this tab to select your picture mount requirements. Whether you decide to use a picture mount is usually down to your own preference, however mounts are commonly used to visually enhance artwork as well as adding conservational properties by spacing the artwork from the glazing. For these reasons EzeFrame always recommend the use of a picture mount. You can select either a single or double mounts by clicking on the mount colours. To remove a mount layer just click the "Delete" button under the mount colours. The width of the top mount layer can be set by entering a width measurement either for each individually border or for all borders. The mount shape can also be set to be rectangle/square or circle/oval.
• Frames Tab - From this tab you can search through hundreds of different picture frame mouldings until you find your perfect frame style. You can narrow the search by selecting one of the colour categories or by using the sort options that allow you to sort by price or width. Our website will also eliminate any frame moulding from the display if it isn't suitable for the size frame you require or if the moulding is out of stock. To select a particular frame just click on the moulding image, or for further information on any particular moulding style just click the icon. Additional information that is available includes the frame width, internal rebate depth, total frame depth, colour, profile style and stock availability.
• Glazing Tab - Select your preferred glazing option.
• Accesories Tab - A range of optional accessories that will help complete your picture frame.
• Review Tab - Review the different framing elements, view the price breakdown and add the item to your shopping basket.

If you order a frame from us, the frame size will always relate to the internal size of the frame from the back.
It NEVER relates to the visible area from the front of the frame and it NEVER relates to the external size of the frame.
The lip/rebate of the frame will always overlap the glazing and artwork by a few millimetres all round to ensure it doesn't fall out.

I am buying a Picture Frame only....

Measure the physical size of your artwork from outer edge to outer edge, including any white border or existing mount you want to see, for both the width and the height. You would enter those measurements into our custom picture framer application.

We would manufacture your frame so your artwork(including any mount/white border you have included in the measurements) will fit into the opening at the back of the frame.

So if your artwork measures 320 X 470mm, you would enter 320 X 470mm as your frame size - Easy!

I am buying a Picture Frame & Mount...

Measure the exact image size of your artwork from outer edge to outer edge. If your artwork has an existing border that you want to see you would include these in your measurements. If your artwork includes a border that you do not want to see you would not include these in your measurements. The size that your enter will relate to the actual opening size in the middle of the mount.
We will make a small 2mm adjustment to each mount width to ensure the artwork doesn't fall through the middle of the mount aperture.

So if you artwork measures 250 X 190mm, you would enter 250 X 190mm in the size fields. We would manufacture the mount so the actual aperture would be 246 X 186.

The frame size will be calculated by our software and depends on how wide you set the mount widths to be.

Picture Mount Only

If you are purchasing a mount to fit an frame brought elsewhere you need to know the internal frame size(the opening at the back of the frame) as well as the size of your artwork.

Simply enter the exact sizes of your artwork into the size fields on our website. You then have the option to enter the width for each side of the mount, top, bottom, left and right. You will need to calculate manually how wide the mounts need to be to fit your frame opening size.

Please ensure the "External Mount Size" measurements on your order review match the actual opening size of your own frame from the back.

Replacing an old frame

We strongly recommend you remove the artwork from the existing frame before attempting to measure the item. However if this is not possible please remember to measure the opening of the current frame from the back. Do not measure the visible area from the front or the external size of the frame as any replacement frame would not fit.

You should measure the exact external size of the existing backing board or glazing and enter those sizes into our website.

Important Tips & Information

• The lip/rebate of the frame will overlap your artwork by a few millimetres all round. This means that the actual visible area from the front of the frame will be smaller than the opening of the frame at the back. The amount of overlap varies from moulding to moulding.

• We will manufacture your picture frame to be between 1-2mm larger than the sizes quoted on your order confirmation. This allowance ensures the backing and glazing can be removed when fitting your artwork.

• We recommend that the back of the frame is taped up to add a professional finish and additional security.

Frequently Asked Questions

How good are the moulding/mountboard images online?

All of the moulding profiles have been professionally photographed and the mountboard colours have been scanned to a high resolution. In our opinion they offer an excellent graphical representation of the actual product. But they are just a graphical representation of the products. Other factors, such as screen resolution/calibration, can effect what you see.

Why are you so much cheaper than the framer on the High Street?

There are many reason that we can supply the exact same frames at much lower prices than your local picture framer. Here are a few:

• Buying Power
  We are one of the largest picture framers in the UK and as such can negotiate the best prices due to the quantities we buy.

• Face Time
  We do not need to have staff onhand to deal with customers all day as our website is self service. Lower labour costs means lower prices.

• Fitting Costs
  A high percentage of the cost of having a picture framed is due to the excellent work your local picture framer would be likely to do. By buying from us you are taking on the role of the picture framer and fitting your own pictures into the frame. The reduced level of service means lower prices.

• Lower Over Heads
  Our business is based on a sound financial background. We have hundreds of thousands of pounds worth machinery, vehicles and business premises that are all wholly owned by us - No mortgages, no loans, no rent. Our over heads are lower than our rivals and that is reflected in our prices.

Do your made to measure picture frames come with glass/backing/hanging fixtures?

All frames are supplied with crystal clear acrylic glazing as standard with options for non glare acrylic glazing or no glazing available,  2.5mm MDF backing board and suitable hanging fixtures are supplied with all custom picture frames.

Full details of whats included in the price of all our products can be found here:

What's Included?

I need a frame that exceeds your maximum size of 1220 X 915mm, Can you help?

We can manufacture frames much larger than our maximum online size of 1220 X 915mm. The problem is we cannot send them out via our courier partly because of courier restrictions and partly because they are very likely to arrive damaged. If you are able to collect from either our Bedford or Kettering locations, or if you live within a 50 miles radius of Bedford please email us with details of your requirements and we will work out a price.

How do I put picture in an aluminium frame?

Please review of fitting advice page for details of how to disassemble/reassemble our aluuminium frames.

What is meant by 'glazing'? Is the glass/perspex included or is this just for a frame?

The glazing is the protective front of the picture frame that sits in front of the artwork. It is essential for the majority of framing work. Glazing may be supplied in the form of glass from some suppliers but we use acrylic glazing as it offers better UV protective and clarity. Acrylic glazing is also shatterproof so will not arrive broken on delivery.

Can I order a frame that can be stood up on my desk?? Do you photo frames stand up??

Stand up backs can be ordered as an optional extra on custom made picture frames upto 320 X 320mm You will find this option within the Accessories tab of our custom picture frame designer application. This option will not show on frames that exceed 320mm in either width or height as frames over this size are likely to fall over.
