Swiss Style Frameless Picture Clips
The Swiss Style Frameless Picture Clips are heavy-duty metal glass-retaining clips designed to construct borderless picture frames without an outer moulding profile. These traditional Swiss clips function by passing the integrated rear hanging loop through pre-drilled 3mm holes in your backing board (positioned 27.5mm from the edge) and flattening the retention tab to lock the glass, artwork, and backing board securely together.

All-in-One Retaining Clip & Wall Hanger
The clever design of the Swiss clip eliminates the need for additional picture cord or D-rings. The rear loop that locks through the backing board acts directly as the wall hanger, letting your borderless frame mount flush against wall fixings.

With an expanded 11mm rebate capacity, these clips easily accommodate thicker multi-layer display sandwiches, including 2mm glass or shatterproof acrylic, thick conservation mount boards, paper prints, and dense MDF or greyboard backing panels.
Trusted Choice for Gallery Displays & Contract Framers
Swiss clips are the industry standard for creating sleek, minimalist, borderless clip frames. They allow artists, photographers, and exhibition organizers to swap out prints quickly and maintain a clean, floating aesthetic.
