plastic frames

Frames in this selection are made from several plastics and blends — for example, acrylic, polystyrene, glass-filled nylon, and general-purpose plastic. Window glazing varies by frame and may be acrylic (plexiglass) or glass, depending on the model.

Weights vary by size and style; examples in the product details range from about 0.29 pounds for small tabletop frames up to about 3 pounds for larger frames.

Common mounting options include sawtooth backs and keyhole mounts for walls, hanging triangles or D-rings, and easel backs for tabletop display. Many frames include mounting hardware, and some gallery kits add slide-in pin hanging systems and wall templates to simplify installation.

Some frames are designed specifically for wall display and others for tabletop use; several styles include both an easel back and hanging hardware (for example, triangle hangers), so the same frame can be placed on a table or hung on a wall.

The product details recommend routine care by spot-cleaning or wiping the frame and glazing.
