UNPACKAGING
For Impact blocks and Collections, simply break the seals on each box and lift the product out. If your product is wrapped in protective cellophane then rip the labels that hold it together or cut the tape at the rear of the product only and remove from the open end of the bag.
For collages, you should only use a sharp object on the surrounding tape if necessary. Twist nuts whilst holding bolt head to remove fixings from the cardboard
CLEANING YOUR ARTWORK
Even though all of our printed pieces are made with fade resistant, durable, high quality, genuine Epson pigment inks, a little care is still needed when cleaning and looking after them.
What to use?
All you need is a dry, soft, non-fuzzy cloth such as microfibre or cotton. Lightly wipe dust from the surface. Do not rub or apply pressure as this may damage the surface.
What not to use!
DO NOT use water or cleaning products on the surface of your product.
DO NOT use a rough or dirty cloth.
You may use a light amount of polish on a cloth for the laminate edges and back only.
UNPACKAGING
For blocks the process is very simple to remove from the protective bag it is done by ripping the labels that hold it together and removing from the open end of the bag.
For collages, you should only use a sharp object on the surrounding tape if necessary. Twist nuts whilst holding bolt head to remove fixings from collages
HANGING YOUR WALL ART
Depending on the product and its size, we offer various wall-mount options. In some cases, the wall-mount can be directly integrated into the frame. In most cases, we attach an additional wall-mount to your piece.
Impact Blocks
All our Impact blocks are fitted with saw tooth hangers and 4 supports to create a floating effect. Depending on the size of the piece, one or two hangers are attached to the back of the product.
Hanging your picture can generally be done with screws fixed into holes in the wall using wall plugs.
-
Measure the distance between the hangers and use this measurement when drilling holes into the wall - if you only have 1 hanger then no need to do this, simply mark where you would like the centre point of your art work
-
Drill holes in the wall at your desired height
-
Place wall plugs into holes
-
Screws are then fitted into the holes but leaving roughly an 1.6cm overhang to allow the artwork to hang with the supports on the back resting on the wall to give the floating effect
Collections
Our collections have the same hanging design as our Impact blocks with the exception of having an additional hanging template to show you where you should position each screw.
Simply position the template on the wall where you would like your collection to be, either securing with masking tape if the surface will allow, or by two people holding it in place whilst the screw holes are marked. Lightly pop a nail into each X on the template to mark the wall ready for making the screw holes.
Remove the template then proceed as per Impact block instruction above for each screw hole.
Wall Blocks (hang flat against the wall)
The hanging system is integrated into the frame with a keyhole hanger on wall blocks which makes hanging them slightly easier.
-
Drill a hole at your desired height and fill with a wall plug
-
Insert a screw until it is almost entirely in the wall
-
You will then be able to fit the large hole on the back of the wall block onto the head of the screw and slide down until it is resting level
Collages
The hanging system is again integrated into the frame and will be mounted in a similar way to Wall Blocks.
-
Measure the distance between the hangers and use this measurement when drilling holes into the wall
-
Drill holes into the wall at your desired height
-
Place wall plugs into holes
-
Insert a screw until it is almost entirely in the wall
-
Hang the collage on the screws
For all artwork,
DO NOT:
-
Hang or place directly in sunlight
-
Hang over any hot surface i.e. a radiator or cooker
-
Hang without wall plugs
