What is Keyline Framing?

Keyline frames offer a lightweight, glassless finishing option for your photographs and artwork.


 

Why should I choose Keyline Framing?

Without glass, keyline frames are more lightweight than traditional framing and reflections on artwork are minimal. Keyline frames are a popular solution for those wanting to frame their work without glass.

Your images are first mounted to Kapa Foamboard to ensure they lay flat within the frame and provide extra strength and rigidity. We then paint the edges to match your chosen moulding colour and tone, and the mounted print is attached directly to the frame. The wooden mouldings we use for our framing are from sustainable sources that meet environmental, social and economic needs for both the present and future, as certified by the FSC scheme.

Our frames are available in sizes up to 110 inches or 2.8m, although we can accommodate larger requests on application.

Appropriate fixings are then attached to the back of your frame so that your work is ready to hang. Of course, our skilled team can provide advice on hanging systems, but we can also offer delivery and installation services.

 


Packaging and Transporting Your Framed Photographic Works:

One of the biggest challenges with finished works is transportation, which is often tricky due to the fragility of the piece, its size and weight. We would recommend crating works where possible for international travel or transportation using select couriers, providing utmost security. Crates, which can be custom-built to accommodate the exact dimensions of your piece, do cost an additional outlay but can offer a cost-effective solution in the long term when compared against the costs and time associated with getting finished pieces re-made. We also advise, where possible, using experienced art handlers or installers to ensure the risk of damage is minimal. Not only do we provide advice on transportation from years of experience in this field, but we can create bespoke crates and delivery and installation services too – simply ask us!
