Adjust and align the frame corners.
Then use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.
Assemble the Third Rail the same way.
You now have an opening for your Artwork, plus optional backing board, matboard, and acrylic window.

When adding a matboard for your Artwork, photo or poster, the matboard opening should be smaller than the Artwork you are adding and will overlap your print.

Flip the matboard over to its back. And mark the area to position the Artwork to be viewed within the opening.

Add tape to the corners secure the Artwork in place. Additional tapes can be added to the sides if needed.

From the middle area, pull the Wire up a 2 or 3” inches to give some slack. This makes it easier to place the Wire onto a picture frame hook on the wall
