Description

Save up to 71% off the cost of custom-sized Gallery stretcher frames by ordering individual Gallery bars, bundles of 24, and braces!

A very popular deep bar, this profile was designed as an economical option for "Gallery Wrap" (frameless) display of prints on canvas between 6" and 60" (16cm and 153cm). This stretcher bar uses the unique Upper Canada Stretchers single-key-per-corner design. Please ensure this frame style will suit your needs before ordering.

Stock braces are now Universal!

Our regular braces are made to fit with our stretcher bars using mortise & tenon joints which must be cut during production and cross-braces must be machined with dado joints to nest together. For these to fit properly, we need to know the size combinations that will be used and, when purchasing stock-sized bars and bundles, you don't always know when you place your order exactly what combinations you will end up using. To resolve this, our "stock" braces will now use our Universal Bracing system which uses screwed-in brackets to mount to the stretcher bars and allows braces to be used interchangeably with any other size*. Take advantage of the cost savings of buying in quantity without sacrificing your creative options!

We recommend bracing bars 30" and longer. For example, if you wanted an 18" x 30" frame, you would order one 18" brace to support the middle of the 30" bar. For frames where both dimensions are larger than 30", you would order a brace in both bar sizes. Any braces that will cross each other come with a notched dado joint in the centre which allows the two intersecting cross-braces to nest together; a screw is supplied to fasten them. Braces are constructed of 1/2" x 3" clear white pine and come with two keys each.

*If you wish to use braces in both directions on frames smaller than 30", please let us know as these braces will need to be machined to nest together. Note also that braces 10" or shorter are too small to be cut as Universal Braces; for frames requiring these, please order stock-sized Gallery stretcher frames instead.

If you prefer to stay with our regular mortise & tenon braces or wish to order by the complete frame, please go to our stock-sized Gallery stretcher frames or custom-sized Gallery stretcher frames pages.

For information on how to assemble a Gallery stretcher frame, stretch an existing painting or print on canvas, and more, visit our Education page.

Stock-sized items typically ship in 5-10 business days but our turn-around times do vary depending on our workload. Please notify us if you have a specific deadline.

In the pulldown, below, bar sizes marked with a * should be braced. See bracing instructions, above, for what to order.

Also note that braces 30" and longer have a dado (notch) cut in the center to nest together as cross-braces. Please contact us if you wish to order differently.
