I have a 16 x 20 poster frame I would like to display at an expo. Will this hold up the frame?

I'm using it with a 17 X 23 whiteboard and it works very well. So, you should be fine with your poster frame.

I used this for an assisted living facility. It seems sturdy enough for use at a vendor show for display. I used it as a decorative accessory at my facility. C. Walker

I would love to help you but I purchased a 16 x 20 to fit a 11x 14 matted print. I can tell you the frame is awesome.

I suppose if you used heavy duty double sided material like is used to secure posters etc. it might work. It is fairly light but with a lot of use, I'm not sure it would stay attached for long.

There isn't a huge amount of room in the "brackets" on the board. I'm guessing no thicker than 9/32. Foam board or corrugated plastic board will fit. We use solid heavyweight poster stock.

As answered previously the frame can hold a surprising amount but the dimensions are small. I have Stephen King books on mine and they are heavy. I also agree the surface it is on will also determine it's sturdiness.

It is cardboard'ish and not very heavy, but if you are using it for a stand paper poster -- it will work fine.

As far as the weight I think yes it will definitely hold the 20 LBs. However I believe if you glue it as soon as you come within 1/4" of whatever metal you're attaching it to it might rip itself or the sculpture with it when it attaches to the metal. The attraction force up close is VERY violent.

Hey- I used this 48 inch one for a smaller poster- several inches shorter- and I think it actually looks pretty cool. If I could add a foto here to show you I would!

I use it with a standard metal frame but it's against the wall. it looks strong.

Thank you for your message. Due to the large size of the item, it is very difficult to find any cheap frames at, say, a big box store. I would imagine that the greatest part of the quote from a custom framing place involves the glass or plexi-glass component. I have had no reports from any of our recent customers who have attempted to get the poster framed, so I am not able to offer much advice. All I can suggest is that you do a search online. If you enter a keyword such as "poster frame" and search the available dimensions you may luck out and find something in your price range. Keep in mind also that, when dealing with such a large item, you should always wait to frame it until after you have received it and have had an opportunity to take your own exact measurements. The dimensions can be slightly off from what is stated on Amazon. This way, you will know exactly the size you are dealing with and be able to get a frame that will fit the item properly. One other suggestion that may serve your purposes and your budget: Some places (like Kinkos, for example) may offer lamination services. Laminating the poster should be, I should think, MUCH cheaper than framing and still provide a means to protect the poster from damage for several years. The only drawback obviously is that the lamination does not come off if you should ever need the poster in its original state. However, with the lamination, you can still roll the poster up for storage and moving purposes and easily rehang it. Please let me know if I can answer any further questions. Thanks Matt Bananaroad

should be no problem....mine holds a 55 in flat screen, weighs around 35 to 40 lbs. and it would still support something heavier than that. It even comes assembled, I really don't think you'll be disappointed. And besides that. it looks great !

Yes. As long as the frame doesn't have a surface treatment that prohibits adhesives from working, it will stick.

I would think so but I am not happy with the sturdiness of the entire frame. I do not transport very far and the person is not in the chair for any length of time so it serves its purpose.

I measured mine and it's shy sixteen. If framing is accurate you should be ok. Great idea.

I had your same exact concern. The back is flat, front is rounded, inside has a straight line of rubber so you just lay your poster along that line and slam the top down. I bought 6 of them to hold posters at a craft show. They look great and are easily reusable. Highly recommend them.
