Since moving to our high street premises on Manchester Road in the heart of Chorlton, we’ve developed a great range of ‘off the shelf’ frames, especially good if you’re in a hurry or have a tight budget. We can usually cut mounts while you wait if you prefer, or to help make your picture fit a frame. We stock a range of good quality and stylish aluminium frames by Nielsen, in the popular A sizes, in black white and silver. Prices start from £15.00 for A4.

Also we have a great range of photo frames which make great gifts, our aim is to always have something a little different and stylish for you to choose from. Prices start from just a few pounds!

Framing Manchester is pleased to be hosting an Exhibition of Susan Parry’s work, as part of the Chorlton Arts Festival, 16th to 25th May. We hope to see you there!

We’re on the lookout for new staff, especially if you have framing experience, but also if you can offer great customer service skills. Do get in touch if you’re interested. CV’s to info@framingmanchester.co.uk or call Andy on 07947 360460.

Today (23rd October 2013) we’ve moved into our new premises:

93 Manchester Road
Chorlton
Manchester
M21 9GA

It’s just opposite the Unicorn Cooperative Store.

We hope to be operational again in a couple of days.

The bigger premises will allow us to offer more retail services, such as a selection of great art prints, photo frames and gifts for sale. Watch this space!!

We have a variety of media to choose from on 24 inch wide (610mm) rolls. There is a charge per linear cm for each media type, so it’s to your advantage to fit multiple pictures within that roll width.

For example: on 21cm of roll paper (61cm wide) you can fit 2 x  landscape A4 prints. Or on 42cm of roll paper you can fit 2 x A3 prints. Then multiply the number of cm by the amounts shown below for the different media types. Sorry if that’s confusing! Do call or email if you need assistance with this.

eg. 21cm x 30p = £6.30 for 2 A4 prints on satin photo paper, or 42cm x 50p = £21.00 for 2 A3 prints on Fine Art Paper.

Canon Satin Photo Paper (260gsm) = 25p per linear cm.

Canon Gloss Photo Paper (240gsm) =35p per linear cm.

Canon Photo Quality Canvas (320gsm) = 40p per linear cm.

Fotospeed Fine Art Soft Textured (315gsm) = 40p per linear cm. Available in natural or bright white.

Fotospeed Platinum Baryta (300gsm) = 50p per linear cm

Hahnemuhle Photo Rag (308gsm) =50p per linear cm

note: prices exclude VAT, discounts are available for trade and quantity. Our minimum order is £5.00 for printing.
