Lens Covers
UVS Clear Lens covers offer a similar look to standard glass, in an Optical Grade, Durable, and Lightweight Plastic with UVS Protection. A typical disadvantage of Clear, is that the reflection from light or other objects can be seen when viewing, and that dust or scratches are much more visible. Available in sizes up to 32" x 42. For sizes larger than 32" x 42", and up to 42" x 62", we offer a Optical Grade, Lightweight, Virtually Unbreakable Clear Lens Cover flexible enough to ship.
UVS Non-Glare Lens covers offer a similar look to standard glass, in an Optical Grade, Durable, and Lightweight Plastic with UVS Protection. One side has a frosted / matte finish (Facing Out) which helps to dramatically reduce the amount of reflection, sunlight, or overhead lighting that can be seen when looking at your frame. Additional advantages are that Non-Glare is also less likely to show any dust or scratches. A typical disadvantage to Non-Glare, is that the depth of color and image quality is reduced by an estimated 5%. Our Non-Glare Lens Covers should NOT be used with frame matting. The increased distance away from the image (due to the thickness of the frame matting), will result in additional loss of image quality. Available in sizes up to 32" x 42". For sizes larger than 32" x 42", and up to 42" x 62", we offer a Optical Grade, Lightweight, Virtually Unbreakable Non-Glare Lens Cover flexible enough to ship.
Clear Acrylic Lens Covers are made to fit perfectly when used with our Shadow Box frame profile. They are a safer alternative to traditional glass, offering many advantages while maintaining the optical clarity typically found in only traditional glass. Available in sizes up to 32" x 42".
Consideration to where the frame will be placed should be given, when weighing out the benefits or drawbacks of upgrading from a Clear to a Non-Glare Lens when ordering. When shipped, Lens Covers have a protective film on both sides, which helps to protect the material during shipping and handling. Additional less expensive Glazing such as Clear and Non-Glare Styrene, is also in stock and available to bulk commercial customers (email inquiries only).
* Please note: Both a Lens Cover and Backing are required to properly use our type of frame.
