Keyline Framing Overview
Keyline frames are glassless frames comprised of a mounted print and frame mounding.
Images are first mounted Kapa Foamboard, ensuring they lay flat within the frame and to provide extra strength and rigidity. The edges are then painted to match the colour of the moulding, and the mounted print is attached directly to the frame.
Keyline Framing Advantages
Keyline framing offers a glassless finish, making them more lightweight than traditional frames and minimising reflections to artworks.
Our frames are available in sizes up to 110 inches or 2.8m, although we can accommodate larger requests on application.
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.
Once your frame is complete, appropriate fixings are attached to the back so that your work is ready to hang. Not only can our skilled team provide advice on hanging systems – we can also offer delivery and installation services too.
Why Choose Genesis for Keyline Farming?
With in-house production capabilities, we craft Keyline Frames in our on-site framing department. If you also print with us, this eliminates the need to coordinate with multiple suppliers, ensuring a streamlined and efficient process from start to finish.
We also extend a 100% satisfaction guarantee to all of our services, pledging to either redo or refund should the outcome not fully meet your expectations.
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!
