Photo Mount Size Guide

Photo Mount Size Guide

When selecting a mount for your photographs or prints, it is important to understand two key measurements: the insert size and the outer mount size.

Mounts are typically named according to the photo size they hold, rather than their external dimensions.

1 Insert Size

The insert refers to the photograph or print that sits behind the mount aperture. The print should be slightly larger than the aperture opening so it remains securely positioned behind the mount.

Example: A mount designed for a 4×6" photograph will usually have an aperture slightly smaller than 4×6".

2 Mount (Outer) Dimensions

The outer dimensions describe the full size of the mount itself. These measurements are important when choosing suitable packaging or frames.

Packaging: Bags or envelopes should always be slightly larger than the mount's outer dimensions.
Framing: The frame opening should be large enough to accommodate the mount comfortably.

Classic Silver Portrait Mounts for School & Studio Packages

For photographers handling large annual packages for schools, sports teams, or busy portrait studios, quality and volume pricing are paramount. Our Classic Silver Mounts are the industry standard—offering a consistent, rigid presentation that parents and corporate clients expect for long-term display.

These mounts are made from 1240gsm black recycled board and feature the traditional, striking 0.6mm thick silver foil border. This construction ensures every print is protected during handling and mailing, arriving in sale-ready condition.


Core Applications: Guaranteed Quality for High Volume

Maximise your workflow efficiency and enhance your final client product across these key areas:

  • School Photography: Fast fulfilment for high-volume class and individual print packages.
  • Studio Portraiture: The consistently premium look required for family and corporate headshot packages.
  • Volume Print Orders: Reliable, uniform presentation for large-scale seasonal or mass-produced client gifts.

Why Our Classic Silver Mounts Deliver Reliability

We ensure these mounts meet the demands of high-throughput studios:

  • Wholesale Pricing: Contact us for a quotation on quantities over 500 to achieve maximum cost-per-unit savings.
  • 0.6mm Thick Border: The traditional border width provides superior visual impact over thin, contemporary styles.
  • Optimal Durability: The 1240gsm board thickness prevents bending during mailing, reducing expensive replacements.
  • Instant Availability: We hold stock for guaranteed 1-day delivery across Mainland UK.

Studio Operations Q&A

How quickly can I receive a bulk order?

We keep this item in stock and guarantee 1-day delivery across Mainland UK for all orders placed before our daily cut-off. Your packages will never be held up waiting for presentation materials.

Do these mounts require extra protection when mailing to clients?

While the rigid 1240gsm core offers protection, we strongly recommend using a dedicated, hard-backed cardboard envelope to guarantee your portraits arrive damage-free. We stock a full range of corresponding cardboard envelopes to match all mount sizes.

How does the silver foil border hold up under long-term display?

The silver foil is non-tarnishing and is designed for long-term home or office display. Its classic look remains consistent, ensuring clients are satisfied with the quality of the finished portrait for years.
