Three things built for framers.

A supplier's photo of a mouldingThe seamless length the visualiser makes from it

Uses the photos you already have

Drop in your supplier's product shot. We find the moulding, turn it, trim the sawn end and join it so the frame shows no seam, even a plain white length on a white background.

True size, on a wall or in their room

The piece is drawn to scale beside a person, or on a photo of the customer's own room, so a 55 mm moulding looks like 55 mm.

Quote requests in your inbox

Every request arrives with the frame, mount, glass and finished size, and a picture of what they chose. You quote; nothing is priced on screen.

You run it, not us.

Mouldings, mounts and rooms live in your own WordPress, so your range is yours to change whenever you like, without ringing anybody.

  • A moulding takes its width, finish and supplier code, and the supplier's photo of a straight length, used as it is.
  • Eight sample mouldings are switched on to begin with, so the visualiser works before your range is in. Turn them off in Settings once it is.
  • Mounts, rooms and quote requests have their own screens in the same menu.

Questions framers ask

Do I need a developer?
No. We install it with you on a call, and you set the colour once so it matches your site.
What if my moulding photos are poor?
Send what you have. We check them with you when we load your range, and a re-shoot is rarely needed.
Who sees my customers' pictures?
Nobody. The picture stays in the customer's browser. Only the frame they chose comes to you.
Do prices show on screen?
Not unless you want them to. Requests come to you to quote, the way most framers price.
How long does set-up take?
An afternoon for most shops, including loading a first set of mouldings.
What if I change my website later?
It moves with you. Tell TBX and we fit it again on the new site.
