Care and Maintenance

To keep your diploma frame looking its best, follow these tips:

Dust the frame regularly with a soft cloth.
Avoid placing the frame in direct sunlight or humid environments, as this can cause fading and damage.
If you choose standard glass, you can change to UV-filtering Non-Glare glass. Non-glare is finely etched on the surface to diffuse reflections and prevents the mirror-like reflections of plain glass.
Handle the frame with care to prevent scratches or damage to the glass or frame.

Shipping and Payment

Shipping: Frames are typically carefully padded, double-boxed with generous protection, and fully insured via UPS. Shipping discounts may apply for multiple frames.
Methods of Payment: Most retailers accept all credit cards and personal checks. Note that personal checks must clear before shipping.

Installation Options

If you do not yet have your diploma or you prefer not to send it to us, we can send you the frame with the glass, matting, mounted print, backing and mounting boards, and attached hanger wire. You can arrange to have the diploma, medallion, tassel and dustcover installed at a later time by us or at a different location. When you choose this option Subtract $5 from the prices in the table above.
