QT offers both fully-finished Matted Folios and self-mount Slip-In Matted Folios.
Matted Folios
Matted Folios are fully finished, printed and assembled, and ready for display on a desk, shelf or mantle. They come complete with either two or three prints in your choice of Fuji Lustre Photographic Paper or Fine Art Matte Cotton Rag paper. Prints are permanently mounted under a beautifully textured mat board and a discrete magnet helps to keep the folio closed. You can opt to have the cover personalized with a variety of personalization options such as embossing. Sold Individually.
Duo Matted Folio
Trifold Matted Folio
Slip-in Matted Folios
Intended for DIY, these self-mount folios allow you to add your own prints and/or change the prints over time. Stock them in your studio for immediate delivery to your clients and enjoy extra discounts when you purchase them in sets. Assembly is easy with a slot on the top of each page where you can insert a photographic print. You may choose to keep it open, which allows you to change a print in the future, or permanently fix your prints into place using a piece of double-sided tape (we recommend acid-free) and/or close off the slot in top.
Sold individually or in discounted Sets of 5 or 10.
In SETS, any cover upgrade charges are applied only once to give you extra savings!
Tips for Assembly:
When inserting prints into a slip-in style product, you may find it necessary to use something stiff as a tool to help you - it is supposed to be a tight fit and may require a bit of work to get prepped. Try something like a glossy advertising mailer, a playing card, a butter knife, etc. Slide it in from the top and get it under the edge. Work it all the way around the edges, sliding it under and LIFTING to loosen the edges a bit. Once you have worked the edges, you can add your print and use the card under the edges to help guide it. Slide that card down to the bottom and leave part of it under the mat board, and part of it sticking up so the print can go behind it. You can do the card on an angle in/around the corners. This should make your mounting experience much easier.
