Can I fit aluminium Dibond, MDF or wooden panels into a floater frame?

Q: Can I fit aluminium Dibond, MDF or wooden panels into a floater frame?

Yes, our floater frames are also suitable for pictures on aluminium Dibond, MDF or wooden panels. Simply order the frame in the size of your picture. We automatically make it slightly larger on the inside, so that there is an even gap of approx. 0.6 cm all round. How is the picture fixed in the frame? MDF and wooden panels: If they are thick enough, they can be screwed directly to the floater frame from the back. Make sure the screws are not too long. Aluminium Dibond: Here we recommend gluing narrow wooden battens to the back of the picture. You can then screw the picture to the battens from the back through the frame. What if the picture sits too deep in the frame? Thin panels sometimes sit a little deeper in the floater frame. You can place small pieces of wood or felt underneath to raise the picture slightly, so that it sits less deep in the frame. Pay attention to the rebate depth of the floater frame. The glued-on wooden battens also need to fit inside it.
