Stretch-roll™ canvas wraps

This canvas wrap is 36" high


Our latest innovative glassless mounting option resembles the Gallery wrap but is mounted in an entirely different manner that works especially well for the largest print sizes.

Construction details

The canvas is not mounted to foam board nor to a 4-sided frame, but is attached to two rounded hardwood boards on the left and right sides. On the back, two or more wood struts hold the boards apart and stretch the canvas. The image wraps around the left and right sides but not the top and bottom. There is no need for a wrap on the top and bottom since they are not visible when the print is mounted on the wall at eye level. Since damage that might cause curling of the top and bottom is possible, we fasten a foam board strip to the back of the top and bottom with removable adhesive. The boards are on the left and right sides for prints that have either portrait or landscape orientation. More views at the bottom.

Advantages of the Stretch-roll mounting

  • The print comes apart and ships and stores in a tube. It takes less than 10 minutes to assemble without tools. This saves the high shipping costs you would have to pay for large framed prints, and they are easy to store when not displayed.

  • These prints have the pleasing look of a gallery wrap. No expensive frame is needed.
  • The stretching force by the struts on the back can be adjusted. If the print sags with high humidity (a common problem for traditional stretched canvas), just tighten the struts a little more!

  • We can supply an accessory stand that will make your print free-standing -- a great idea for your art or craft booth at a show or sale. Another idea is to stand a print in places in your home where you can't hang a picture, such as in front of your fireplace in the summer.

Top and bottom are seldom viewed

Options for the sides

The sides can be part of your image, but if this crops the main subject more than you want, we can clone the background to extend around the sides or we can add a solid color to the sides. See the Gallery wrap page for more details on image preparation.

Stretch-roll parts

This is what comes out of the shipping tube. The canvas rolls up on the stretcher boards. The struts are dowels with threaded studs.

Back of assembled print

The dowel struts stretch the print. Black foam board stiffeners go on with removable adhesive to keep the top and bottom edges straight.
