Discover the University Frames Difference

[OUR PRODUCTS]  [FRAME COMPONENTS]

University Frames prides itself in using the finest hardwood in all of its solid wood frames. Trees are harvested and replanted under strict government guidelines. This plantation approach ensures not only a sustainable resource, but also minimizes any impact on the local ecology. The wood we have selected is universally recognized in the industry as having two highly desirable characteristics; hardness and straight grain. Only after being kiln-dried to achieve an optimum level of moisture content, is the wood then milled. All of these factors, when combined, contribute to an extraordinarily high quality moulding. It is milled within very tight tolerances, after which uniform coatings of stain and finish are applied, resulting in a luxurious satin or high gloss finish, destined to retain its elegance for decades.
 
The moulding is then cut and joined at our facility in Anaheim, California. Frames are assembled by hand, using high quality components. The matboard and mountboard are acid and lignin-free, and are Ph neutral to help preserve and protect your diploma. The bottom border of the matboard is embossed with your school’s name, and the top border displays the school’s seal: this may be embossed or, for many schools, an optional 22-karat gold plated medallion may be selected as an option. The distinctive medallion, a University Frames innovation, adds a touch of elegance that will shine brilliantly over the years.
 
When you receive your university diploma frame, graduation picture frame, or diploma display, you will find it packaged with a great deal of care and attention. Each frame is wrapped in tissue and thick bubble wrap, then boxed, and then boxed again. We take the extra steps to protect your frame in an effort to ensure that it arrives at your door in the condition it left us – flawless.
 
Instructions for easily and quickly inserting your diploma are included to eliminate any delay in displaying a milestone achievement.
 
We have been making diploma frames since 1988 and are a premier supplier to hundreds of colleges and universities throughout the country. We are prime partners with the various collegiate licensing authorities, so you can be sure your frame has passed their rigorous inspection criteria, as well as those of the colleges themselves.

The Legacy
Our newest premium quality moulding, the Legacy, combines a straight profile and contemporary feel with a subtle satin finish. Those searching for a modern look without the high gloss found on some of our other moulding will find the Legacy a perfect fit.

Evoking a timeless look from the past, yet reflecting the contemporary, sculpted lines of today, our Legacy profile with its dark, rich, satiny finish, is destined to become a classic for all time.
