Convenient snap action poster change functionality with the appearance of a wood poster frame.
Special coating process delivers an aluminium poster frame with a realistic wooden appearance (similar to dark oak). The finish is durable and unlike real wood the frame won't warp or distort when subjected to humidity or major variations in temperature.
Convenient snap open action with wooden poster frame appearance.
Concealed wall fixings supplied (plugs and screws). Snap open the frame to access these.
Load your A2 poster, A1 size advertisement, or standard A3 prints from the front without needing to unscrew or dismantle the frame.
For larger orders there may be a manufacturing lead time - please check with us if you need larger quantities of wood look snap frames delivered quickly.

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.
