Start by measuring each document. Many diplomas are 8.5" x 11", and lots of double document frames list two fit options: with mat and without mat.

• With mat: Often holds two 8.5" x 11" documents for a tight, polished look.
• Without mat: The same frame may fit a larger overall size (commonly 11" x 14" or 14" x 20").
• Review the listing’s “opening size,” “outer dimensions,” and orientation (portrait or landscape).
• If you want space for extras (like a photo or tassel), choose a layout with multiple openings.

Comparing your measurements to the product details can help you pick the right fit. You can select pickup or delivery at checkout for convenience.

Double document frames come in a few display styles. The right choice depends on where you want them and how you’ll use them.

• Wall mounting: Many include hanging hardware and support vertical or horizontal display. Using two hooks can help with leveling and stability.
• Tabletop: Hinged double frames and easel backs are great for desks and shelves.
• Combo options: Some frames offer both wall and tabletop setups for flexibility.
• Extras: Certain designs include additional openings for a graduation tassel or photo.

Check the product description for “mounting,” “easel back,” or “hinged” details. Choose delivery or store pickup at checkout to fit your schedule.

Both protect your documents, but they behave differently in daily use.

• Glass: Offers crisp clarity and good scratch resistance. It’s heavier, and some options are tempered or feature UV-blocking properties.
• Acrylic: Lightweight and shatter-resistant, which can be helpful in high-traffic areas or dorms. It may arrive with a protective film to peel before use, and some versions also mention UV protection.
• Care: Use a soft microfiber cloth. For acrylic, choose a plastic-safe, non-ammonia cleaner to reduce the risk of haze or scratches.

Review the product’s glazing details to balance weight, safety, clarity, and maintenance preferences.

Mats create a clean border, elevate the presentation, and can influence sizing options.

• Fit: Many frames note two sizes—fits 8.5" x 11" with the mat, or a larger size without the mat (often 11" x 14"). Always review the listed “mat opening” to match your document.
• Style: Double mats and beveled edges add depth. Colors like black, navy, or white with gold accents can coordinate with school colors or décor.
• Preservation: If longevity matters, look for mentions of acid-free matting in the details.

Confirm both the opening measurements and outer dimensions to get the look and coverage you want.

A little care can help your frame look great without risking the documents.

• Dust the frame with a dry microfiber cloth first.
• For glass: Spray a non-ammonia cleaner onto a cloth (not directly onto the mat or document) and wipe gently.
• For acrylic: Use a plastic-safe cleaner or a damp microfiber cloth; avoid paper towels that can scratch.
• Allow surfaces to dry fully before closing or rehanging.
• Display in low-humidity areas and away from prolonged direct sunlight to help reduce fading.

These steps can help maintain clarity and finish over time, but techniques may vary by material and environment.
