Description
Flat fronted snap frames in silver finish
Thin 20mm wide, narrow profile mitre corner snap frames offer a more individual look. These frames have a flat front, rather than the more common rounded design, which is appealing to some architects and interior designers
The 20mm (3/4in) wide perimeter profile has a flat bevelled front. These narrow snap frame surrounds resemble certain contemporary silver photo frames.
The four sides are opened with fingertip pressure to gain access to the print or leaflet to be displayed.
A non-reflective poster cover is included.
Frames are supplied complete with wall fixings.
Whilst normally used with printed materials write-on chalk card inserts are an optional accessory.
A5, A4 and A3 flat front snap frames are available in 20 mm thin surround profile
The 20mm snap frames are part of our new year sale, there's still time left to grab yourself a nice cost saving on these items.
20mm snap open frames are sometimes called quick snaps because it is easy to exchange posters. The frame border is made up of two hinged aluminium profiles with integral stainless steel spring clips which give the frame its snap action.
Similar frames are also known as gripframe poster frames or clippy frames. We use a reliable parcel delivery company to deliver snap frames: UK delivery is by next day overnight service.
Size Information for aluminium snap frames
The width of the surround is 2cm or 20mm
Front to back depth of 20mm profile snap frame: 11mm
A4 relates to the size of paper an A4 frame will fit.
A narrow strip around the edge of your print is hidden when the frame is closed and is worth being noted when printing text or logos as these may be hidden if you print up to the edge of the paper. Visible poster size: 8mm less than actual poster (i.e. 4mm all round your poster is hidden by the frame surround)
The overall size of the frame is larger than the paper inserted. Overall (external) frame sizes are shown in the table:

Fix snap frames using screws
The best way to permanently fix snap frame is with screws.
Screws and plastic wall plugs are included with every snap frame we supply
The wall plugs are for use with masonry walls such as brick and most plastered walls
When screwing onto wood the plugs are not needed
A power drill and screwdriver are required for screw fixing (and we recommend using a spirit level and tape measure to ensure the frames are properly aligned). If in doubt please consult a proficient DIY or trades person.
Fix snap frames using adhesive tape
Rolls of double-side adhesive tape are available as an accessory item.
If double-side adhesive tape is used to fix frames (in place of the screws supplied) please check the smoothness and suitability of the wall.
Tiles and similar surfaces may be suitable provided they are cleaned thoroughly before application.
Tape fixing is not suitable for surfaces with a non-stick coating or porous/foamed surfaces.
We recommend that tape is used around the full perimeter of the frame.
Larger frames are normally best screwed. A residue of foam tape will be left on the wall or door after removal of the frame and the frame will usually be hard to get off.
