What is a V-groove?

A V-Groove is a thin white line (black line for blackcore) which is carved into the top mat around the entire mat. A V-Groove adds a special "class" and formality to any picture or print you are trying to emphasize. V-Grooves are only available on the top mat of your mat selections.

Is your mat board acid free?

Our mat board PH level is 5.0 for our standard, premium, suede, and black core mat board. If you are interested in true acid free mat board (archival), check out our acid free category which has a PH level of 7.0.

How much is it for additional openings?

There is no additional cost for a mat that contains 2 or less openings. After the 2nd opening, each additional opening is $0.25/opening.
