  • Follow these steps to ensure the perfect print:

    Bleed

    To avoid an unwanted white border, drag all background content to the edges of your template. We’ll trim your sign between the safe area and the bleed line.

    Safe Area

    To prevent content from being cut off during the printing process, keep all key text and logos inside this zone.

    File Format

    When designing your sign, you may upload files in the form of a JPG, PNG or PDF. We recommend setting your document’s resolution to a minimum of 300 DPI and color mode of CMYK.

  • Snap frame signs are available for free pickup in 5 days. Expedited delivery is also offered.

  • If you’ve already created content for your snap frame, choose the Upload Your Own option to upload your finished design as a PDF, JPG or PNG. Please refer to the design guidelines to ensure your design is ready for print before you upload it.

  • Just open the front of the frame and place your print inside! Perfect for theaters, shops, schools and the office, switch up your signage quickly and easily. Use a snap frame to promote a flash sale, market an impromptu event or decorate a classroom in a pinch. No need to remove the entire frame to insert your print.

  • Minimal assembly is required to start using your snap frame. Lift open all four sides of the frame, remove the plastic cover, insert your poster into the frame, replace the plastic cover, and close all four sides of the frame. Snap frame signs include mounting hardware.

  • While prints are available for purchase on their own, we recommend pairing them with our frame to ensure the best fit. If you have an existing frame, choose No Frame on the product page. Changed your mind? Add a frame to your cart before checkout. Frames are not available for purchase on their own.

  • Due to the aluminum composition, snap frame signs are for indoor use only.

  • The frame is 7/16" thick and fits the following print sizes: 18" x 24" (frame size: 20.25" x 25.25"), 24" x 36" (frame size: 25.5" x 37.5"), 36" x 48" (frame size: 37.5" x 50.5"). For best results, we recommend using our lightweight poster board or polystyrene inserts. Should you decide to use an insert of a different kind, ensure your deign is printed on rigid material and fits within the dimensions of the frame.

  • Yes, double-sided printing is available, with the option to print the same or different designs on the front and back. Select Double Sided on the product page to print on both sides. If you’d like to use the same design on each side, select Link Front and Back Designs in the design tool. Changed your mind?
