MDF Construction & Frame Specifications

Each square picture frame 30 X 30 cm is made from MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) for strength, stability, and a smooth, consistent finish.​

• Frame depth: 15 mm

How to Insert Your Square Picture Frame 30 X 30 cm

Taking a little care when fitting your artwork ensures a professional finish.​

1. Place the frame face down on a clean, soft cloth to protect the front and corners.
2. Release or unclip the backing board fixings and set them aside safely.
3. Gently remove the HD plexiglass sheet and peel away any protective film from both sides.
4. Position your 30 x 30 cm print so it is perfectly centred and straight within the visible window.
5. Lay the plexiglass back over the artwork, checking that no dust, hair, or debris is trapped.
6. Refit the backing board into the 8 mm rebate, ensuring it sits flat with no bowing.
7. Secure all fixings, then hang or stand the frame and inspect for fingerprints, dust spots, or misalignment; adjust if necessary for a clean, gallery‑like look.​

Working in a dust‑reduced space and using a soft microfibre cloth for the plexiglass will help keep the surface clear and bright.​
