Advantages/difference compared to Conservo magnetic frames:
The Conservo magnetic frame can optionally be supplemented with the 5 mm high D5 insert frame as an integrated spacer. With this variant, the selection of profiles and strips is limited due to the width of the D5 spacer/insertion frame. On request, we also manufacture the Conservo-Distance magnetic frame as a special solution.
The Conservo magnetic frame is equipped with a full-surface rear panel made of eloxated aluminium and magnetic spacer strips with a height of 5 or 10 mm. This construction also allows the use of narrow aluminium profiles and wooden strips, analogous to the distance magnetic frame. In addition, the aluminium rear panel offers extra stability and flatness even for thinner KLUG corrugated cartons, museum cartons or folding passe-partouts. All other features of the CONSERVO magnetic frame are, of course, retained - the BS 1 R invisible image protection is also available as an option.
Several museums already chose Conservo-Distance magnetic frames and are convinced. Take a look at the special version and get in touch with us - we will be happy to advise you comprehensively on all options for your "museum magnetic frame" made to measure.
Here we show you the differences between Conservo and Conservo-Distance magnetic frames in comparison:
Conservo magnetic frame | Conservo-Distance magnetic frame |
A Klug corrugated cardboard, loosely inserted into the Professional basic element of the CONSERVO, forms the rear wall. This is the proven standard version of the CONSERVO magnetic frame. |
The Professional basic element of the CONSERVO-DISTANCE is additionally equipped with an eloxated aluminium sheet for increased stability and optimum flatness properties. |
If the corrugated cardboard of the CONSERVO is removed from the basic element, you can see the open sheet steel angular frame - the base of the frame without rear panel. |
In the CONSERVO-DISTANCE, the basic element under the loose corrugated cardboard is completely closed - by an eloxated aluminium surface. This is robust and offers perfect flatness. |
The sheet steel angular frame overlaps the corrugated cardboard all-round: this overhang defines the insertion depth inside the frame and can be adjusted without extra charge. |
The CONSERVO-DISTANCE is equipped as standard with magnetically removable spacer strips, available in 5 or 10 mm height - we will be happy to advise you in detail. |
The CONSERVO without spacer strip, here with passe-partout directly behind the glass. The CONSERVO cannot be distinguished from the CLASSIC magnetic frame from the front. |
With the CONSERVO-DISTANCE, the distance to the glass is always included - a design option that is popular from a conservation point of view, with or without passe-partout. |
The CONSERVO-DISTANCE is also well thought-out when it comes to handling: small recesses make it safe and convenient to remove the inserted materials. In this case, the frame is filled with the standard corrugated cardboard, a folding passe-partout, a magnetic spacer strip 5 mm high and the glass. The recess ends at the top edge of the eloxated aluminium surface in the basic element for optimum handling. After locking in the optional BS 1 R picture lock, the CONSERVO-DISTANCE magnetic frame is ready for presentation - comfortable and safe, in best museum quality.
Conservo-Distance in Stedelijk Museum
The CONSERVO-DISTANCE magnetic frame is used, for example, in the Stedelijk Museum, about which we have already reported. The individual frames according to the customer's wishes meet exactly the museum's special requirements for framing.
