DIY Matt boards
Our Slide-in Matts are top quality, 100% pulp matts that are acid free and alkaline buffered to combat the natural ageing of the paper, protect your print, and ensure longevity. All openings are bevel-cut, and each top matt is affixed to a back mount board. These matts are open at the top to allow prints to slide-in easily. Slide-in matts are available in your choice of white or black.

We manufacture a range of DIY matt boards. *We have many requests from photographers looking for 7×10 inch slide-in mounts, or Matt boards. Sue Bryce has become a big brand in promoting photography.
Her drive to share the advantages of In-Person Sales (IPS) has made her a celebrity in the photography industry. Shunning the “shoot and burn” trend Sue recommends offering matted prints and selling on her well known “reveal wall”.
PLEASE NOTE: The window, or opening, is cut slightly smaller to allow it to overlap the print. We work on a global standard for photographic sizes (with the exception of the 7×10″) . The overlap is approx. 3mm on all sides (this will then be smaller than the image size).
Fine Art Printing: As there are various print options, these are not included, please visit our printing pages for options from Fine Art to Photo Prints.

** In-Store Mounting involves a different process whereby the prints are vacuum pressed onto the backing board and the matt board is place securely over the print and glued into place. The end product is no longer a ‘slide-in’ mount and remains permanent.

Custom Sizes & Quotations
Our team is always happy to assist with product information, standard sizes and the options available on our website. However, custom sizing can involve considerably more than simply adjusting the price according to size. Even a change of just a few millimetres can affect material usage, standard sheet or component sizes, cutting plans, production methods and overall cost.
All standard products and sizes listed on this website have already been carefully calculated and priced with these factors in mind. For this reason, our team may not be able to provide an immediate price for specialist sizes or modified products. Any change to a listed size, specification or custom option will need to be formally calculated and quoted by management to ensure that the correct materials, production requirements and pricing are taken into account.
We appreciate your understanding and our team will gladly assist in submitting your requirements for quotation.
