Conservo Magnetic Frame
Picture frames for particularly sensitive flat works of art
- Unique magnetic frame principle for really easy framing
- Developed in collaboration with conservators
- Meets the highest conservational requirements
- Back wall made from ageing-resistant KLUG corrugated board
- Individually custom-made in our Westerwald factory
Precision in the details
The flush-fitting 45-degree mitre is virtually invisible. HALBE CONSERVO frame’s unrivalled precision is the result of painstaking craftsmanship.
Well thought out
One of the advantages of HALBE CONSERVO is its back wall made from ageing-resistant KLUG corrugated board. Unlike a rigid foam board, it is inserted loosely. It offers maximum ageing resistance, is free from acids, solvents and plasticisers, and is PAT-tested.
Durable and robust
Embossed steel angles connect the robust aluminum profile frame in all four corners. Due to the high quality materials and neat workmanship the HALBE CONSERVO lasts for decades despite frequent exchanging - for example for exhibitions.
Ready to hang on any wall
The back of the frame has hanging holes on each side for secure hanging at one or two points. The straight hanging holes can be used for sideways adjustment, while angled holes are an additional aid to ensuring level hanging. The felt-padded wall spacers are adjustable for height and will not mark or damage the wall.
- Insertion depth selectable without additional charge
- Large insertion depth allows for exchanging corrugated cardboard for loose sandwich layering
- Choose between glass directly on the picture or separated by a passe-partout or insert frame
- Glas type and UV protection on request
- Cut glass edges to avoid cutting or chipping
- Integrated holes for hanging at one or two points
- Straight hanging holes for adjustment by sliding to the side
- Additional tilted hanging holes to make up for tilted nails
- Finely adjustable and fireproof wall spacers to make up for uneven walls
Forever safe
The Halbe Conservo Magnetic Frame is suitable for valuable, delicate drawings, prints, documents, flat collages or other works of paper. The various options in terms of material, colour, glass and size make it highly adaptable to its surrounding or single work – for institutional or private collections.
Timeless design
The HALBE Classic Magnetic Frame is available in aluminum or solid wood. For the aluminum version there are five profiles and a wide range of colours to choose from. In the solid wood version, the frame is available in four strip cross sections with rectangular shape as well as in eight different colours.
QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS
Product-Highlights
Steel fortifies wood
Wooden top frames are glued in the corners. They are additionally strengthened with corner angles made of steel to achieve high stability even with delicate Wood 10 frames.
Flatness and insertion depth
Even contact pressure on the glass ensures proper flatness of flat pictures. Insert the glass directly on the paper or on a passe-partout or insert frame to add more distance to the picture. The insertion depth from 0 to 16 millimetres is available without additional charge. If the profile allows, you can also combine it with the Halbe D5 insert frame.

Glasses and UV protection
The frame can be equipped with all types of glass. Use Artglass AR 92 for optimum UV protection of the front. Artglass AR 99 offers additional protection: This 2-pane safety glass cannot splinter and protects the work against mechanical damage. The edges of the glass are always cut to avoid cutting injuries or chipping. Optium Museum Acrylic meets even highest demands.

All-round protection for works of art
The frame can be firmly fixed to the wall (BS 4) and secured against unauthorised opening (BS 1 R). It can also be combined with HALBE picture locks. CONSERVO is available with the picture lock BS 1 Bolt (BS 1 R), which is invisible from the front.
Outstanding design
In 2013 the timeless HALBE CONSERVO magnetic frame was awarded with the renowned Red Dot Design Award.
Conservo magnetic frame as Distance
The "upgrade" of the CONSERVO is the new CONSERVO-DISTANCE magnetic frame. Compared to the CONSERVO magnetic frame, it is equipped with a full-surface eloxated aluminum wall and magnetic spacer strips in 5 or 10 mm height, thus offering the additional advantages of the DISTANCE magnetic frame. In addition, the aluminium rear wall offers extra stability and flatness even for KLUG corrugated cardboards, museum cartons or folding passe-partouts. All other properties of the CONSERVO magnetic frame are of course retained. The invisible BS 1 R image protection is also available as an option.
Variable insertion depth
Many customers like to order this frame type with a particularly large insertion depth, which allows maximum flexibility when using the frame for different objects over a period of time. KLUG corrugated board or background board, both of which are available in different thicknesses, are suitable for making up the differences in depth.
