    Looking for fairly cheap poster frames - for poster of 136cm x 98cm size

    As per the title, I am spending so much time just try to find a fairly affordable frame of that size but not much luck

    Anybody would know of a cheap and easy way to get one?

    Found these online but they're sold out:
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crixus35-pi.../dp/B07DRZJ2D4
    Or the IKEA BJÖRKSTA

    Please and thank you

    That's nice but A2 is nowhere near what I need for the poster I have, even when I get two

    they do all sorts of sizes, I could see from your header you weren't after A2. i was just saying thats the size i bought. there's loads of listings and most of them have a drop down where you choose the size you want and the colour of frame you want, black/white/silver/gold etc

    you can get almost anything on ebay

    To be honest that's a really big frame, and difficult size to ship without breaking. Your best bet will be to try a local picture framing place.

    Will try, although I think the custom price tag will make me weep

    Re: Looking for fairly cheap poster frames - for poster of 136cm x 98cm size

    Poster hangers may be an option? I imagine picture glass that size is now deemed dangerous.

    I made a poster hanger for my son's world map; its about the same size. I gave up trying to find a frame for a £4 poster from the works. It looks pretty awful tbh but we had fun making it.

    That does sounds like a good idea, I'll give it a go

    Re: Looking for fairly cheap poster frames - for poster of 136cm x 98cm size

    I've found Dunelm, TKMaxx or B&M to be good places to get poster frames - they usually have a large range of sizes in stock in store and they are generally cheap enough at £10-£20 depending on size and material.
