Your store takes the order. We ship the finished piece from ours.
Best Framing runs framed print fulfillment for online stores from its shop in Costa Mesa, Orange County. Online sales has created a new demand for quick turnaround times, competitive pricing, and on demand shipping. Best Framing takes care of all of that.
Every step under one roof, so nothing changes hands.
We can scan and reproduce the artwork, print it, frame it and ship it from the same building on Placentia Avenue, which is what lets an order go from a file to a boxed, framed piece without leaving our hands.
Order
Send us the order as it comes in, or connect the store, as one professional art photographer has, so its orders come to us directly.
Print
Archival giclée on canvas, cold-press watercolor paper or matte and luster cotton papers, with pigment inks. Direct-to-substrate UV printing on many compatible flat materials. Color managed here, from your file.
Frame
Custom framed in the same building, chopped and joined by hand, or stretched in house if it is a canvas.
Package
Wrapped and boxed in-house. For large pieces, multiple piece orders or long distances we can build a custom wood crate.
Ship
Directly from our store to your customer, on our freight accounts when a crate is involved, without you lifting a finger or moving a box.
The print lab an order runs through.
The 60 × 96 inch UV flatbed prints directly onto wood, acrylic, pearled and brushed aluminum, tile, fabric, leather and other compatible flat materials. The 64-inch giclée printer puts archival pigment ink on canvas, cold-press watercolor paper and matte or luster cotton papers. Same roof as the chop saw and the mat cutter, and the orders are packed here too.
Proofed before the run
Proof prints, weighted flat in the shop. File preparation and prepress assistance, color management and color matching run through every print.
The 64-inch giclée printer
Giclées on canvas, cold-press watercolor paper, or either of our matte or luster acid-free cotton-based papers.
Packed in-house
Wrapped and boxed by our team, then handed to the van or the freight account.
Crates and freight
For large pieces, multiple piece orders, or long distances we can build a custom wood crate. We have existing freight service accounts for shipping crates, and we confirm receiving requirements, such as a forklift, before booking shipment.
Built for runs, not only one-offs.

Print-on-demand since 2020
Print-on-demand is not new here. In 2020 the shop introduced a print-on-demand gallery with a local photographer.
YelpThe same shop, two ways in.
Selling your own work
If you are the artist or photographer behind the store, start with artist fulfillment. Giclée for resale, stretched or framed, and a conversation at the counter about reproducing your work if you are only starting out.
Running a store or a brand
Open a Pro Account with your business details on file, then send orders as they come. Volume framing, production runs and shipping straight to your customer. Custom work is quoted in person.
The questions people ask at the counter, answered.
From what can be framed and choosing the right glass to mounting jerseys, printing artwork and protecting the pieces that matter, we answer the questions our customers ask us every day.

Before you connect your store.
Can my online store send orders straight to you?
Yes. Send us each order as it comes in, or connect the store so its orders come to us directly, the way a professional art photographer's Shopify store is connected today.
Can you ship prints to my customers unframed?
Yes. A piece can ship unframed, packed by our team. Everything else is custom framed in the same building, chopped and joined by hand, then wrapped and boxed in-house.
Can you handle high-volume print and frame orders?
Yes. Volume framing and production runs are part of the service, and at 10,000 square feet we have the equipment, team and production capacity to complete everything from a single custom frame to a large commercial project. We have produced more than 400,000 custom frames.
How long have you offered print-on-demand?
Since 2020, when we introduced a print-on-demand gallery with a local photographer. Print-on-demand is not new here.
How does a store or brand get started with fulfillment?
Open a Pro Account with your business details on file, then send orders as they come. If you are the artist or photographer behind the store, start with artist fulfillment instead.
