Frequently Asked Questions
-
What makes the 50-pack ideal for my photography business?
The 50-pack provides quantity flexibility for photographers working smaller events, testing size preferences, or maintaining diverse inventory without excess stock. It's particularly valuable for boutique studios, specialty sessions, individual school classes, and photographers exploring client responses to silver versus black or other mount styles before committing to larger quantities. Lower pack size also means reduced storage requirements and capital tied up in inventory.
-
Is the quality identical to bulk pack quantities?
Yes, absolutely. Every mount in the 50-pack meets identical quality standards to bulk quantities—same 1240gsm recycled board construction, same silver foil hot stamping process, same precision cutting accuracy, same through-dyed finish. Pack quantity affects only the number of mounts, never the professional-grade materials or manufacturing standards that define Stimolantè quality across all pack sizes.
-
How do the silver borders compare to black mount borders?
Silver borders offer elegant metallic presentation that provides visual distinction without the stark formality of black borders. Whilst black creates maximum contrast suitable for traditional formal occasions, silver delivers sophisticated separation that appeals to broader audiences and suits both contemporary and classic photography styles. Many photographers find silver borders versatile across diverse client bases, complementing colour and monochrome work equally well without the strong aesthetic statement of black.
-
Can prints be inserted from either orientation?
Prints insert from the side regardless of mount orientation. Order mounts with apertures matching your photography composition—portrait openings for vertical images, landscape openings for horizontal compositions. The precision-cut apertures guide prints into position whilst the heavy board maintains rigidity during loading. For photographers working both orientations, maintain separate mount inventory for each to ensure optimal presentation.
-
What's the best way to store 50-packs before use?
Keep mounts horizontal in their original packaging, stored in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight and humidity. Flat storage prevents warping whilst environmental protection maintains board rigidity and foil finish integrity. The 50-pack's compact size makes storage practical for studios with limited space or mobile photographers maintaining portable inventory for location work. Multiple 50-packs can be stacked efficiently whilst remaining easily accessible for quick restocking.
-
Can I order multiple sizes in one purchase?
Absolutely. Ordering multiple 50-packs in different sizes builds versatile mount inventory suited to your photography range. Many photographers order 4×6" for standard offerings, 5×7" for mid-tier packages, and 8×10" for premium deliverables—maintaining diverse size options without bulk quantities of each. This approach enables responsive client service whilst managing inventory investment and storage efficiently.
-
Are the mounts suitable for postal delivery to clients?
The rigid 1240gsm board construction provides excellent protection during postal transit, keeping prints flat and undamaged through delivery handling. For enhanced protection and professional presentation, pair mounts with our protective poly bags or rigid mailers designed specifically for mounted print dimensions. This combination ensures your work arrives in pristine condition whilst reinforcing the quality clients expect from professional photography deliverables.
-
Can these mounts be customised with my studio branding?
Yes, Stimolantè mounts accept custom branding including logos, studio names, websites, and contact information. Branding transforms mounts into marketing assets that promote your business every time clients display your photography. Multiple foil colour options and positioning choices available. Custom branding typically requires minimum order quantities—contact us on 0208 527 6006 to discuss requirements, noting that minimums may exceed standard 50-pack size depending on customisation complexity.

Photo Mount Size Guide
When selecting a mount for your photographs or prints, it is important to understand two key measurements: the insert size and the outer mount size.
Mounts are typically named according to the photo size they hold, rather than their external dimensions.
1 Insert Size
The insert refers to the photograph or print that sits behind the mount aperture. The print should be slightly larger than the aperture opening so it remains securely positioned behind the mount.
Example: A mount designed for a 4×6" photograph will usually have an aperture slightly smaller than 4×6".
2 Mount (Outer) Dimensions
The outer dimensions describe the full size of the mount itself. These measurements are important when choosing suitable packaging or frames.
Packaging: Bags or envelopes should always be slightly larger than the mount's outer dimensions.
Framing: The frame opening should be large enough to accommodate the mount comfortably.
Framing: The frame opening should be large enough to accommodate the mount comfortably.
