Bring your images to life! Metal is a modern substrate that brings an extraordinary feel to your images. Whether it’s for a bedroom, living room, office, media room or even a garage, metal prints allow your images to be displayed in a new light. With three different finishes to choose from, take your images from ordinary to extraordinary! Create metal wall art decor!

Prints on metal are made by sublimating the image onto a specially coated .045” aluminum. This results in an image that has more saturation and depth than traditional prints. Since there is no paper, water will not damage it and the aluminum can easily be cleaned with glass cleaner and a soft cloth.

Surfaces and Sizes

White Gloss

It has the highest saturation and depth. It works great with people and scenery photos, giving them a very vivid appearance and high sheen. Colors and whites remain natural – whites will be white. The high gloss will show reflections.

White Satin

Gives a soft and smooth finish between gloss and matte. Colors and whites remain natural – whites will be white. This is a good compromise where contrast is wanted, but reflections are a problem.

Silver Gloss

Since there is no white coating on this material, any area that would be white or light on the image allows the aluminum to be seen through the image. This is great for photos with metal objects. Combining the metal look with blacks or intense colors makes a very dramatic, almost 3-D, effect. The look varies dramatically with lighting conditions.

Sizes

Single Metal Prints are available in sizes from 4x4” - 30x40”. We also offer circle, as well as a Benelux and Milan shapes to add an even more unique look.

Finishing Options

Harold’s Photo’s Metal Prints are extremely durable and can be displayed without laminating or framing. We offer several display options.

Easel back

A metal easel back is attached to the back allowing it to stand by itself on a table or counter. Use for 4x4” - 8x12” prints.

Wall mount

This is the most popular method of display. A mounting block with either a keyhole hanger or sawtooth hangers is attached to the back of the print allowing it to be hung on the wall with a nail or screw. Once hung, it appears that the image is floating from the wall.

Framed

Frame your metal print with a 5/16” wide, 1 5/16” deep black or white frame. A ¼” space between the metal print & the frame makes it look like it’s floating.

Stand-offs

Stand-offs add a fresh and modern feel to the metal. Stand-offs are ⅝” diameter, 1½” long and placed 1” from the edge of all four corners of your Metal Print.

Designs & Shapes

Stacked Metal Prints

We offer backgrounds that can be mounted behind your image to create stacked metal. The aluminum is mounted to a block that is set off from the background material. Then the background can be mounted to another block that offsets it from the wall. This creates a very dimensional and dramatic effect.

Collage Metal Prints

Stacked Collage Prints allow you to showcase more than 1 image. These are available in several sizes & layouts with 3-6 of your favorite images.

Split Metal Prints

Our Split Metal Print extends a single image across multiple metal print panels to create a beautiful mosaic effect.

Shapes

We offer 3 different shaps of metal.

• Vintage shape called Benelux. Available in 11x16" size.
• Modern shape called Milan. Available in 8x8" and 12x12" sizes.
• Circle. Available in 8" and 11" diameters.

Sample Images

It is much easier to visualize how your work will reproduce when you see samples. Samples of all our materials and finishes are available at our 41st Street location in Sioux Falls, SD for you to review.

Durability

Metal Prints are very durable. Water will not damage them, and they can easily be cleaned using a soft rag and glass cleaner. Avoid harsh bumps to the edges as that can cause them to chip.

Warranty & Life Expectancy

The life expectancy of prints on metal is greatly dependent on display conditions and directly related to the amount of UV light exposure. They are durable enough to be used outside, but sunlight will gradually fade them. In the Midwest, regular metal prints will last about two years outside before starting to fade.

Our Metal Print panels are coated in a state-of-the-art facility. Small imperfections, including tiny bumps, are a natural part of the coating process. We try to place any imperfections in parts of the image where they are least likely to be noticed. We cannot remake Metal Prints due to these minor imperfections since they are an inherent part of the process.
