Mount Cutting Service

Harlequin Frames offers a comprehensive mount cutting service both to the trade and general public.  Using a Valiani CMC, we have the capability to cut the most complicated of mounts, single and multi aperture in single, double or triple formats.  We are able to produce creative mounts to fulfil all customer requirements.  By using a CMC the variety and number of aperture shapes is unlimited.

 Whilst the mounts are economically priced, quality is particularly important.  We use Larson Juhl conservation and whitecore mountboard in thicknesses from 1.4mm up to and including 3.5mm, in a large selection of colours.  https://larsonjuhl.co.uk/mountboard/collection-name=conservation/?count=99 

 A function of a mount is to create a space between the artwork and the frame.  The choosing of the right style of windowmount in a compatible colour,  enhances the appreciation of the artwork resulting in a framed picture of which one can be proud.

 There is no minimum order to the number or value of the mounts and we can supply single mounts.  We do not charge any setting-up fee and a customer’s designs are saved for any future orders.  We are not VAT registered but there is a carriage charge and we aim for a three day turn around once the order has been placed.

 Our aim is to provide economically priced mounts without compromising on quality. 

Personal service guaranteed.  

When considering border widths many opt for them to be equal thereby providing flexibility when using the mounts for either portrait or landscape images.  Traditionally, bottom weighting is used to add balance thereby avoiding the bottom border looking narrower than that of the top border.  For further information on border widths please see the following video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAG1A00O9OU
