Simply frame from the front: The magnetic frame principle
The magnetic frame principle invented by Heinrich HALBE in 1973 is the basis for all picture frames from HALBE. Thanks to the proven HALBE principle for magnetic opening and closing, framing and changing pictures is quick, easy and accurate - without any tools. Unlike conventional picture frames, with our magnetic frames you insert your pictures from the front: without twisting and turning, without clamps, springs or corner connectors.
HALBE Magnetic frames
HALBE Magnetic frames allow convenient and quick framing from the front. The picture can also be changed in a matter of seconds. With just one press of the thumb on the glass, the frame can be opened from the visible front side and closed again securely and dust-tight. The picture remains fixed and is permanently protected.
Functionality based on principle
All HALBE magnetic frames consist of a basic element, glass and profile. The basic element is a dimensionally stable composite of galvanized sheet steel angular frame and pH-neutral hard foam board or KLUG corrugated cardboard (both PAT-tested). This composite also serves as a rear wall and support surface for pictures, passepartout and glass. The frame made of aluminium or wood adheres precisely to the base element by means of special magnetic strips in the profile.

The fully closed back wall made of anodized aluminium provides more stability and optimized flatness, even with thinner materials. The frame is ideal for particularly delicate, light three-dimensional works or floating installations of pictures in museums or private collections. Exchangeable Klug-Conservation cartons allow for a flexible adjustment of the insertion depth. The invisible optional BS 1 R and BS 4 safety locks provide maximum protection.
