When ordering a metal print, there are many options. When I first was ordering metal prints, I was confused about what each hanging option would look like. Once I saw photos of each hanger, it made it easier to order. I hope this helps you decide between the options for hangers, finishes and more.
The first step in choosing a photo print on my site is to choose the medium. I offer two options for metal prints—Satin and High Gloss. As you can imagine, the gloss finish is more reflective than the soft satin finish, however it also has richer colors and crisper detail.
The best way to choose the perfect size for your wall space is to use the AR (augmented reality) Live Preview button available when viewing my website on a phone. This video explains how to use AR on a phone or tablet to choose your metal print.
If you don’t have a phone or aren’t ordering from the location where you will hang the print, you can also click on the Wall Preview key. This allows you to see a preview of how a photo would look hanging over a sofa, a bed, a fireplace or a dining area. You can change the wall color to match your own paint.
Both the Live Preview button and the AR button can be found below the ordering options.
The next choice you need to make is how you will hang the metal print. You can order the metal print alone and have it framed yourself, but usually you will want to choose a type of hanger that is attached to the back of the metal print. These hangers are sturdy as they are permanently fused to the back of the print.
Metal prints do not require a frame. They can “float” on the wall for a clean, modern look or they can be framed for a bit more polish.
Uses a cleat and floats the print 1/2-inch from the wall.
Note that Float mounts aren’t available for very large prints.
This inset frame makes the print appear to float against the wall. Can be hung with a cleat or wire.
This black metal inset frame adds durability to the print. It’s added insurance if the the print will be hung in an area where it might get bumped. (Note that any metal print can be damaged and bent if it falls).
These metal frames are 1-5/16-inch thick when the metal print is added. The metal print floats off the wall with an edge that adds a clean finish to the sides so it doesn’t just look like a metal sheet hanging.
These frames add a modern, polished look to the metal print. The Metal floats in the center of the frame. Available in flat Slim frame or Wedge.
