ArtToFrames 5x18 Inch Black Picture Frame - Custom Wood Frame

In this review the ArtToFrames 5x18 inch black picture frame is judged as a practical, attractive option for anyone who wants a simple, custom look for narrow prints and posters. The biggest reason to buy is its combination of solid wood construction and a finished size that adds a professional border to a 5x18 in image, making prints look custom-framed without a framing shop visit. It arrives ready to hang with a sawtooth hanger and regular glass, so it is especially useful for home decor projects and gift framing where ease and appearance matter.

Key Features

• Wood construction: The solid wood moulding gives a durable, one-of-a-kind frame that visually enhances prints and small posters.
• Finished size: Although it fits a 5x18 in photo, the frames finished outer dimensions are 7x20 in, providing a neat, visible border around the image.
• Profile dimensions: The 1.25 in wide face and 1.00 in height create a sturdy, proportionate frame suitable for narrow artwork.
• Glass and backing: Comes with regular glass and corrugated backing so the framed piece is protected and supported for wall display.
• Ready to hang: Includes a sawtooth hanger for quick installation on the wall without extra hardware purchases.
• Rabbet depth: The 0.375 in rabbet accommodates typical prints and thin mounting boards for framing small works.

Who It's For

This frame is best for hobbyists, photographers, and crafters who need a clean, narrow black frame for 5x18 in prints or custom-printed panoramas. Its wood construction and finished 7x20 in size suit gallery walls, narrow spaces, or grouped arrangements where matching frames are desired.

Those who need very deep framing for thick canvases, heavy objects, or archival museum-grade glazing should look elsewhere, since the 0.375 in rabbet limits the thickness of items it can hold and it ships with regular glass rather than specialty glazing.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Well-built wood frame that gives a custom-framed look to prints without professional framing.
• Finished outer dimensions (7x20 in) provide a consistent, visible border that improves presentation.
• Includes regular glass, corrugated backing and a sawtooth hanger so it is ready to mount on arrival.

Cons

• Rabbet depth of 0.375 in limits the thickness of artwork and mounting options; not ideal for thick mats or deep objects.
• Some buyers expect plexiglass or different hanging hardware based on preference, so glazing and hanger type may not meet every need.
