Craig Frames 24x36 Picture Frame — Black Smooth-Wrap, 1" Moulding, Clear Acrylic Front

The Craig Frames 24 by 36-inch picture frame is a low-profile, black smooth-wrap poster frame with a clear acrylic front, rigid backing, and hardware for wall mounting in portrait or landscape.

This 24" x 36" frame from Craig Frames is built in the USA and made for displaying posters, prints, and large photos while protecting them from dust and handling. The smooth laminated wrap finish gives a contemporary matte look, while the 1-inch-wide moulding keeps attention on your artwork. Before first use, peel off the blue protective film from the acrylic for the clearest view.

How does this frame protect and present large posters?

The frame combines a clear acrylic facing with a rigid cardboard back to keep flatness and prevent surface damage. The acrylic is lighter and shatter-resistant compared with glass, and the rigid backing helps stabilize artwork for long-term display.

• Clear acrylic front shields prints from dust and light handling.
• Rigid cardboard backing maintains flat presentation.
• Frame lip reduces visible area by 0.25" per side — plan artwork size accordingly.
• Comes with hanging hardware for secure wall installation.

Can I hang the frame in both portrait and landscape orientations?

Yes — the supplied hanging hardware supports mounting the frame either vertically or horizontally. The frame is designed specifically for wall hanging and is not intended for tabletop display.

• Attachment points included for both orientations.
• Solid MDF construction keeps the frame square on the wall.
• Lightweight acrylic front makes repositioning easier.

What should I know about the materials and finish?

The moulding is made from solid medium-density fiberboard (MDF) with a black smooth laminate wrap for a modern, uniform appearance. The finish is low-gloss and resists fingerprints while complementing most décor styles.

• 1-inch-wide moulding offers a minimalist profile.
• Durable smooth laminate wrap resists scuffs and moisture better than raw wood edges.
• Made in the USA at Craig Frames’ Ithaca, Michigan facility.

How should I prepare and install my artwork in this frame?

Before inserting your print, remove the blue protective film from the acrylic to ensure optimal clarity. Place the print against the rigid backing, secure it inside the frame, and use the included hanging hardware to mount on a properly anchored wall.

• Peel blue protective film off acrylic before display for maximum clarity.
• Account for a 0.25" border loss along each edge when trimming or matting artwork.
• Use appropriate wall anchors for drywall to support the frame’s weight.
