Framing & Mounting Accessories

Choosing the right tools depends on whether you’re mounting photos, posters, fine art prints, or canvas work. For printing mounting, you may need a combination of mounting spray, adhesive sheets, protective films, and suitable backing materials. These help secure your print to a board or substrate while keeping the surface flat and protected.

For printing framing, the essentials could include a high-quality mount, frame adapters, cutting tools for precision, or protective glazing or film. Whether you’re framing photographs, artwork, or posters, using professional photo framing accessories ensures clean edges, long-term stability, and a presentation-ready finish.

A canvas stretch bar provides structure and tension for canvas prints, helping them sit flat and stable once displayed. They’re ideal for photographers, artists, and print studios producing gallery-wrapped canvases. Stretch bars are available in various lengths and depths to suit both small and large-format prints. Our stretcher bars are kiln dried and UK sourced.

Liquid laminate adds a protective coating to prints, helping defend against UV exposure, scratches, moisture, and general wear. It’s particularly useful for canvas prints. Applying liquid laminate can significantly increase the lifespan and durability of your finished piece.

Professional mount cutters, straight edges, blades, and trimming tools give you clean, accurate cuts when preparing mounts or backing boards. For more detailed work, specialist photo framing accessories such as corner guides and bevel cutters offer a higher level of precision.

Protective films are highly recommended if your prints will be displayed in busy environments, handled regularly, or exposed to light and dust. They provide a clean, durable barrier over the surface, helping preserve clarity and colour—especially useful for printing mounting and larger display graphics.
