Photo frame stretcher bar 20 cm pack of 2, focus Focus Stretcher Bar

The Focus stretcher bar pack contains two wooden stretcher bars, each 20 cm long, designed for assembling or repairing small photo and canvas frames. These bars are intended to be joined at frame corners to form a rigid rectangular support that provides tension and backing for canvas or photographic mounts. The neutral finish and compact size make them suitable for hobby framing, studio work and restoration tasks where precise corner joins and stable support are needed.

Advantages

These 20 cm stretcher bars offer consistent length and straightness to ensure even tension when used in pairs for small frames. Made from lightweight, stable wood, they are easy to handle and cut if minor adjustments are required. The pack of two provides the basic components needed to form part of a small frame corner set, reducing the need to source individual pieces and simplifying small repairs or custom framing projects.

Suitable for

• DIY photo framing and mounting of small prints
• Stretching and supporting small canvas works
• Studio and workshop frame assembly for practice or prototypes
• Repair and restoration of small wooden frames

Key specifications

• Quantity: 2 stretcher bars per pack
• Length: 20 cm each
• Material: wood (lightweight, stable)
• Intended use: corner joining for small frames and canvas supports
• Finish: neutral, suitable for painting or covering during framing

How to use

Measure and mark the frame dimensions required, then arrange the stretcher bars at the corners and secure them with appropriate joinery such as corner keys, glue, or small nails depending on the desired permanent or adjustable construction. When used for canvas stretching, attach the canvas to a complete set of stretcher bars with staples or tacks, then adjust tension evenly across the surface. For photographic mounts, join these bars into the frame edges and add backing and glazing as needed to complete the frame.

Usage recommendations

Handle the wooden bars with care to avoid splinters and store them flat to maintain straightness. For best results when constructing framed canvases, use a full set of stretcher bars matched in size; these 20 cm bars are most effective for small frames and practice assemblies. If trimming is required, use appropriate woodworking tools and sand edges smooth before final assembly.
