Mount Instructions
Need help in choosing the correct mount size ?
1. A 200 mm x 300 mm certificate will fall through an aperture 200 mm x 300 mm.
2. Mounts are measured width x height , so a 200 mm x 300 mm aperture is 200 mm wide x 300 mm high.
3. Mounts are cut by hand and so a tolerance is required of +/- 2 mm .
What size aperture do I enter for my 200 mm x 300 mm portrait ( upright ) certificate ? Answer : 195 mm x 295 mm
This is called the' visible area' , 'aperture' , or 'cut out'. It may arrive from 197 mm x 297 mm to 193 mm x 293 mm , but either way your certificate will not fall through .
When will my order arrive? Mounts may take an additional seven days to be manufactured depending on our staff workload..
How do I attach my certificate or picture to the mount ??
Usually customers use a small piece of masking tape to attach the certificate or picture to the back of the mountboard.
What is the 'size' of a frame? Wherever you buy a frame in the world, the 'size' is the size of the piece of glass which fits in it. So - if you can fit a piece of glass 70 x 100 cm into a frame you can also fit a poster 70 x 100 cm.
