Use our helpful Matboard Border Calculator to calculates the distance of mat board borders inside your picture frame, based on your artwork dimensions and frame dimensions. You can also generate a scaled diagram for this, with dimensions as well.
Artwork Dimensions
Enter dimensions of your artwork in centimeters, or inches. The calculator will subtract 0.5cm from each side for an overlap of the matboard and the edges of your artwork.
Frame Dimensions
Do not enter the overall outside dimensions of your frame. Instead, measure the backing from behind your frame, inside the frame rebate. These measurements will accurately match your glass size.

Enhance your artwork and photography with our Custom Cut-to-Size Double Mat Boards, designed for a clean, professional finish.
Double mat boards feature two layers of acid-free board, precision-cut and layered to create a stepped reveal. This subtle tiered edge enhances visual depth and adds a gallery-level touch to your framed prints and images.
Our double mats are available in a wide selection of popular frame sizes and colour combinations - choose matching tones for a minimalist look, or contrast your top and bottom layers for added emphasis.
What is a Double Mat Board?
A double mat board combines two matboard layers, both with window openings. The bottom layer is cut slightly wider, leaving a visible inner border (around 5mm) to create contrast or dimension. It’s a popular technique for professional photographers, artists, and framers who want to highlight a feature within the image or simply elevate the overall presentation.
