Complete Guide to Floating Frames in Canada
Do you want to elevate your artwork or personalize your interior decor? Our floating frames or american-style frames are elegant, modern, and durable solutions for maximum visibility. We provide professional services across Canada for high-end gallery floating frames.
Floating Wood Frame Sizes and Measurements
To ensure a perfect fit for your design, it is essential to provide the exact measurements of your artwork. Precision is the key to a successful installation of your floater frames. Please note that our floating frames feature a 3/4″ thickness and are designed specifically for a 1.5″ canvas depth.
- How to measure: Provide the exact width and height of your stretcher bar (your already stretched canvas) in inches.
- Do not add any margins: Provide only the actual and final dimensions of the artwork. Our specialized technicians will adjust the american-style frame according to your specifications so that the final result is perfectly proportioned.
- Our frames are made for a standard 1.5″ canvas depth. If your canvas has a different depth, please note it in the “comment section” at checkout so we can provide a perfectly compatible frame.
- Custom Projects (Large Formats): If your artwork dimensions exceed our online parameters, we can still manufacture larger sizes. For these special projects, please contact us via our contact page, chat, or email at info@imaprestige.com for a personalized quote.
- Order Configuration: For standard sizes, you must enter your exact measurements in the order form parameters when selecting your product. The price for your pieces will adjust automatically.
Choosing the Gap
The essence of float frames lies in the empty space between the artwork and the inner edge of the frame. Once your measurements are entered, select your desired “gap” in the parameters:
- 1/4 inch gap: For a modern, tight, and discreet look.
- 1/2 inch gap: To accentuate the suspension effect and give more importance to the design of your floating frames for canvas.
- 3/4 inch gap: For a bold, dramatic shadow. It emphasizes the design of larger artworks with a high-end museum look.
Solid Poplar Floating Frames for Canvas
The design of our products is not simply assembled; it is meticulously crafted. We exclusively use solid poplar for the manufacturing of every floating wood frame.
This noble wood is recognized in the industry for its exceptional stability. Unlike low-end products, a gallery floating frame made of solid poplar ensures increased longevity, guaranteeing that your frame will not warp over time. For lovers of sleek decor, solid wood structures represent the ideal investment.
Personalization, Colours for your Gallery Floating Frames
Choosing the right finish is crucial to harmonize your floating wood frames with your decor:
- Black and White Frames: We use high-quality paint.
- Other Colours and Wood Tones: We apply professional stains to keep the texture of the solid poplar intact, offering an authentic design for your floater frames.
Printing Services and Assembly Options
We offer flexible options to meet your specific needs:
