How to Insert Your square picture frame 50 X 50 cm

Because of the large size, fitting your artwork carefully will help achieve a flawless, professional result.​

1. Place the frame face down on a clean, soft, padded surface to protect the front and corners.
2. Release or unclip all backing board fixings and place them safely to one side.
3. Gently remove the HD plexiglass sheet and peel away any protective film from both sides.
4. Position your 50 x 50 cm print so it is perfectly centred and aligned within the visible square window.
5. Lay the plexiglass back over the artwork, checking closely 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 or gaps.
7. Secure all fixings evenly, then hang or stand the frame and inspect for fingerprints, dust spots, or any tilt; clean or adjust as needed until the display looks clean and even.​

Using a soft microfibre cloth and working in a dust‑minimised room will significantly improve the clarity and finish of the HD plexiglass.​
