Puzzle Frame: The Perfect Way to Preserve Your Puzzle Masterpieces

For many people, puzzling is a relaxing and rewarding hobby. Whether it’s completing a challenging puzzle with thousands of pieces or a simple beginner’s puzzle, placing the final pieces always brings satisfaction.

For many, the enjoyment doesn’t stop once the puzzle is complete. Sometimes the finished puzzle is so beautiful that you want to preserve it as a piece of art. But how can you do that without damaging the artwork or losing its charm? This is where the puzzle frame comes in: the ideal solution to neatly and stylishly frame and preserve your puzzles.

What is a puzzle frame?

A puzzle frame is specially designed to frame completed puzzles without the need for glue or other adhesives. It firmly holds the puzzle in place so the pieces do not shift, while protecting it from dust, dirt, and other damage. Framing a puzzle with a puzzle frame is simple and quick, and the result is a beautiful decorative wall piece that rivals traditional artwork.

There are several reasons why puzzle frames are a great addition for every puzzle enthusiast:

1. Protection for your puzzle

Puzzles are delicate and can easily become damaged, especially when made of cardboard or lightweight materials. Leaving a puzzle unprotected may lead to bending, tearing, discoloration, or missing pieces. Puzzle frames keep the puzzle securely in place, protect it from external elements, and prevent fading or damage caused by dust or moisture. With a puzzle frame, your puzzle remains in excellent condition for years.

2. No hassle with glue

Many puzzle enthusiasts choose to glue their puzzles to preserve them permanently. While this can be effective, it also has disadvantages. Glue can be messy, and if not applied properly, air bubbles or stains may appear. Additionally, glued puzzles cannot easily be taken apart again. With a puzzle frame, glue is not necessary. Simply slide the puzzle into the frame — done! The frame keeps the pieces securely in place without permanently fixing them.

3. Easily change puzzles

Another advantage of a puzzle frame is that you can easily swap puzzles. You may want to display one puzzle for a while and later replace it with another. With a puzzle frame, you can switch puzzles without damaging the original. This allows you to adjust your wall decoration to your mood, the season, or your interior style.

4. Aesthetic value

A beautiful puzzle can be a stunning addition to your interior. Whether it’s a famous painting, a colorful landscape, or an abstract design, a puzzle frame transforms your puzzle into a real piece of art. It offers a stylish and unique way to add a personal touch to your home or office. Choose from different styles and materials to perfectly match your décor.

5. Suitable for various puzzle sizes

Whether you have a 500-piece, 1000-piece, 1500-piece, or even a 2000-piece puzzle, puzzle frames are available in various sizes. This allows you to frame puzzles of different dimensions without compromising on fit or appearance.

Puzzle Frame Dimensions for Your Puzzle

Some puzzles have different dimensions, even if the number of pieces is the same. Therefore, always check the measurements of your puzzle. You can do this by measuring the puzzle after completing it. Below you will find the dimensions of puzzles from several manufacturers:

How to Choose the Right Puzzle Frame?

1. Size

Measure your puzzle carefully before purchasing a frame. While most frames are designed for standard sizes, there are also options for non-standard formats. Ensure your puzzle fits perfectly without being too tight or too loose.

2. Material

Puzzle frames are available in wood, aluminum, or plastic. Wooden frames provide a warm and classic look, while metal frames offer a modern and sleek appearance. Choose a material that matches your interior and desired style.

3. Anti-reflective acrylic front

Our puzzle frames are equipped with an anti-reflective acrylic front panel to protect your puzzle from dust and dirt. Acrylic is lighter than traditional glass and less fragile, making it a safe and durable choice.

Tips for Framing Your Puzzle

1. Clean the puzzle: Gently wipe the pieces with a soft cloth to remove dust and dirt before framing.
2. Insert carefully: Carefully slide the puzzle into the frame and ensure all pieces remain properly in place. Some frames do not have a sliding system but allow you to place the puzzle on the acrylic sheet and then secure it with the backing board.
3. Use a flat surface: Make sure the puzzle lies on a flat surface during framing to prevent warping.
