What are photo frame backs used for?

A photo frame back is the rear component of the frame that closes and secures the image (photograph, print or illustration) inside the moulding. Its main function is to keep the artwork firmly in place and protected, preventing movement or damage. Many models also incorporate a support system (such as a stand, easel back or support foot), allowing the frame to be displayed vertically or horizontally on flat surfaces. In other cases, it enables wall hanging. Photo frame backs are therefore an essential element for ensuring proper presentation and preservation of images, both in domestic and professional environments.

Types of photo frame backs: materials and finishes

Photo frame backs are available in a wide range of options to suit different needs:

  • Black photo frame back: one of the most popular options. Its dark finish provides an elegant and sober look, ideal for modern or minimalist frames.
  • Kraft photo frame back: usually made of natural-coloured board or foam board, offering a cost-effective and functional solution.
  • Wood-effect photo frame back: features a decorative wood-look finish, ideal for classic frames or warmer, more traditional styles.

Depending on thickness, material or frame type, some backs include a support stand, while others require an additional accessory, ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of frame styles and formats.

Complementary accessories: mounting clips and support stands

To complete the function of the photo frame back, essential accessories such as the mounting clip for photo frame stand or the photo frame support stand are available. These elements allow the frame to stand securely on flat surfaces without wall fixing.

They are especially useful for displaying small and medium-sized photographs or illustrations, offering stability and adjustable viewing angles. They are also ideal for temporary displays in offices, exhibitions, trade fairs or stands.

Practical applications of photo frame backs
