What is the difference between plate mounting and casing?

It's basically the same thing. Casing/picture casing is the industry term for mounting on a disc.

Do I have to deliver a finished print, or can you print first?

Both are possible. You can order a print + mounting on a disc from us, or deliver a finished print.

What sizes can I order

Standard sizes can be ordered online. Special sizes and large formats are ordered via contact form.

What should I include in a request?

Measurements, quantity, area of use, whether we will print, and desired delivery/deadline.

Will there be bubbles or uneven edges?

The goal is a flat result with a clean finish. The choice of paper, disc and size affects the method - we recommend a solution based on your application.

Can I hang the picture directly on the wall afterwards?

Often yes, with the right hanging solution depending on the disc and format.

What is the difference between mounting on a disc and framing?

Mounting on a disc provides a rigid base. Framing is a frame (often with glass/spacing/passepartout). Many mount on a disc before framing.

Can I deliver a print from another printer?

Answer. Include info on paper type and size if you have it.

Do you offer rush jobs?

Sometimes. Send us the format, quantity and deadline and we'll quickly tell you what's possible.

Can you send pre-assembled pictures, or do I have to collect them in Oslo?

Both. We find the safest solution based on size and material.

Installation on plate in Oslo (casing)

Mounting on a disc (also known as framing or picture framing) gives a rigid, flat and professional result. Perfect before framing, for exhibitions, or when the picture is to be hung directly on the wall.

What is plate mounting (casing)?

Mounting on a disc means that a print or image is evenly attached to a rigid disc, so that the result is stable and completely flat. In the industry, this is often referred to as plate mounting or image mounting. You get a clean finish, easier handling and a solution that suits both private customers and professional productions.

When is mounting on a disc suitable?

When you want a completely flat image (without waves in the paper)
When the image should framing and you want a stable surface
When the image should professionally presented (exhibition, gallery, trade fairs)
When you need a robust solution for transport, delivery and handling
When you want a wall-ready expression (depending on plate and hanging solution)
