If the frame has not been dispatched you still have time to make changes to your order.

Applying any of these changes may increase the turnaround time for you to receive your finished frames.

Happy customers are our top priority. If for any reason you are not happy with your order please let us know and we will resolve the problem.

Measure the length and width of your art to the nearest whole centimetre. Please round up to ensure the packaging we send is the appropriate size. Once your art arrives in our workshop, one of our framers will precisely measure its exact dimensions and build your custom frame.

To make pricing nice and clear we have based it on the size of your art. To see how much it will cost to frame your piece, visit our Pricing Page.

Send your art in our pre-paid packaging or in your own packaging.

We provide a prepaid label for your packaging, or we can send out a flat mailer or tube, depending on what you are sending.

Once you've securely packaged your art, you can drop it off at your nearest UPS 'drop off' shop (free), or we can arrange for a UPS driver to pick it up from your home.

Your packaging is posted shortly after you place your order and will arrive in 2-6 business days, depending on location. We ship packaging via Royal Mail.

If you haven’t received your packaging after 6 business days, please reach out to us so we can investigate.

If you need new packaging for any reason, contact  order detas so we can nda replacement.

The safety and security of your art is our top priority, and we're proud to offer comprehensive insurance.

In the unlikely event that your art is lost or damaged, we will make every effort to replace it.

If replacement is not possible, we will reimburse you for the value of the piece. A proof of value or an appraisal and proof of purchase or ownership would be required. If documentation of your piece's value is not available, we will reimburse you for the value of your artwork up to £250.

We recommend that you keep your artwork's Certificate of Authenticity (COA) and only send us the piece that you are framing. That said, we can absolutely create a pocket on the back of your frame to hold your COA.

If you’d like us to create a pocket for your COA on the back of your frame, please note it in the “Special Instructions” box in your basket during checkout.

When you receive your frame, simply insert the COA into the pocket and you’ll always know where it is!

We are proud to be the first UK online framers to provide a ‘sent in’ artwork service. Like traditional framers, our frames are custom cut by hand, to the exact size of your artwork. We use protective materials and seal the back of the frame with a kraft paper to protect the art from dust and environmental damage. Therefore we do not provide frames that you can install the art yourself.

You can upload a .JPG, .GIF, or .PNG file and we’ll print and frame it for you. The longest side of the image must be under 12K pixels, and the file must be under 30MB. To ensure the highest-quality printing, our website won’t allow an image smaller than 150 dpi (dots per inch). If you need help with your file, reach out to us here.

The available print sizes for your photo are based upon the resolution of the file you upload. To ensure the highest quality printing, we validate the resolution of your file and only allow you to print sizes that we know will look great. For this reason, our site won’t allow an image smaller than 150 dpi (dots per inch). Want a bigger print? We recommend trying a higher resolution version of your photo, or reaching out to us for assistance.

We print on archival, acid-free, lustre paper using premium inks, and our printers use RGB colour mode and the Adobe RGB (1998) colour space. We require a minimum image resolution of 150 DPI at printing size to ensure the highest-quality finished print. If you’re having trouble with an image, we can convert a file to those settings if you email us.

All of our frames are sealed with a protective kraft paper backing to protect your art or photo for years to come. Because every frame is custom built to your piece’s exact specifications, our frames are not designed to be opened or for the content of the frame to be updated or replaced.

Our Design Service is an easy, free service where our talented design team will provide frame and mount style recommendations tailored to your piece and personal style. Whether you need a second opinion or additional assistance with a more complex frame design, we are here to help.

Within 48-hours of receiving your art, a designer will email you four unique frame design mock-ups, and you pick your favourite!

You'll receive your Designer’s Choice proposal via email within 48 hours of our team receiving your art. For digital uploads, you’ll receive recommendations within 48 hours of placing your order. For physical pieces or mail-in items, you’ll receive recommendations within 48 hours of their arrival in our factory.

We are working hard to reduce our carbon footprint and so don’t offer international shipping.

If for any reason you are not happy with your order, please let us know so we can resolve the problem. Email andy@hangframing.com and share images, plus a description of the issue so we can deal with it and send out a replacement asap.

For ‘sent in’ art items, we suggest holding onto the packaging your original order came with, so you can quickly post the piece back to us (we’ll send you a return label). If you’ve thrown away the packaging, no worries! We’ll send you new packaging.

If you have any questions about this process, we’re always happy to talk through them first!

We recommend a dry microfiber cloth or soft cloth towel to clean your framed art. If you’d like to use a cleaning solution, we recommend water with a drop or two of dish soap. Please avoid using any cleaners that contain bleach to prevent damage or discoloration to your frame.

Reach out to us and we will send you any additional hardware you may need for free (typically delivered within 1-3 business days).

All of our frames come sealed with a custom, kraft paper backing to protect your art from dust and moisture. The backs are not constructed to be removable so that we can guarantee the protection and longevity of your art for years to come.

If you want your frames to be exactly the same size, you can specify your ideal size in the “Special Instructions” field in your cart at checkout, and we'll ensure a uniform final frame size for all.

We accept all major credit cards, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Maestro via Stripe payments.

We do not allow orders to be paid for with two different forms of payment.

We do not use glass. We use acrylic as the glazing for your frame. Our acrylic is lightweight and beautifully clear, while offering superior 92% UV protection. It will not shatter like glass, keeping your pets and family safe.

We source the best materials available like wood mouldings, acrylic glazing with UV protection, and acid-free mounts and foam core. Premium is our starting point. For a full overview of all our materials, click here.

All of our mounts (the card border around your art) are acid-free to ensure the long-term preservation of your art. Our standard mounts are 1400 macrons thick and available in a variety of colours. Currently 90% of our mount board is FSC certified which is clearly stated next to the mount name in the frame configurator.

We use the highest-quality materials and framing techniques to ensure the long-term safety and preservation of your piece. We use acid-free mounts, tapes and foam boards to prevent discoloration over time, acrylic with UV protection, and seal every frame with a protective kraft paper backing to keep out dust and debris.

We hinge mount your art/photo onto an acid free backing board or front mount board. Using a traditional hinge mount lets your art expand and contract with the temperature of the room. We use acid free tapes, so your art does not get discoloured or stained.

We offer a foil blocking service to make your frame truly personal. Type a message up to 35 characters and choose a metallic foil colour.
