The size specification indicates the intended fit; for instance, an 11×14 frame is designed to perfectly accommodate an 11×14 print or photo. All frames incorporate a rabbet, effectively reducing the visible area by approximately ¼ on each side. Consequently, the viewable area of an 11×14 frame is 10½×13½.
Frames with dimensions smaller than 12×18 are equipped with a glass facing and a sturdy black backing featuring two attached hangers for easy installation. On the other hand, frames measuring 12×18 and larger are supplied with a .050 acrylic facing, ensuring both protection and clarity, along with a rigid cardboard backing and a wire hanging kit for seamless display and stability.
