Certificate mounted in a frame and hung level on the wall. Your qualification finally on display where people can see it.
Your Achievement Deserves Better Than a Drawer
Spent years earning that qualification? Time to get it on the wall.
Too many certificates live in a drawer because mounting them in a frame feels like a faff. Wrong. Takes me 15 minutes to center it, clean the glass, assemble the frame, and hang it level on your wall.
💡 Pro tip: Professional certificates in reception areas or home offices reassure clients and visitors. They need to see you know your stuff.

🔧 DIY Tips
Want to frame and hang it yourself? Here's how:
🔧 Tools you'll need
- Clean cloth for glass
- Spirit level
- Drill or hammer (depending on wall type)
- Appropriate wall fixings
- Pencil for marking
🖼️ Mounting the certificate
- Clean the glass thoroughly with glass cleaner
- Remove backing board from frame
- Center certificate on backing board - measure gaps on all sides
- Secure with frame clips or tape (use acid-free tape on valuable certificates)
- Replace glass and backing, secure frame
📏 Hanging it level
- Decide on height (typically eye level, around 150-160cm from floor)
- Mark the wall where the top of the frame should sit
- Measure how far the hanging point is from the frame top
- Mark drilling point
- Use spirit level to check it's straight
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Certificate off-center in frame
- Dirty glass - only notice after it's hung
- Hanging too high (should be eye level, not ceiling level)
- Wrong fixings for frame weight
💡 Pro trick: Use a tiny rolled piece of tape behind each corner of the certificate to prevent it sliding around inside the frame.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🎓 Got a stack of qualifications? Hang them all in one visit. Row of CPD certificates, family degrees, kids' achievements - you're already paying the minimum callout, so bundle them together.
Professional offices? First impressions matter. Your qualifications should be displayed properly - it shows attention to detail.
Old frames? If the frame backing is damaged or clips broken, grab a new frame before I visit. They're cheap from any supermarket or frame shop.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will you mount the certificate in the frame for me?
Yes - if you've got a frame and certificate, I'll mount it centrally, clean the glass, assemble the frame, and hang it on the wall. All in one visit. Just point me to where you want it displayed.
What if the certificate is a non-standard size?
Common issue - especially with older qualifications or international certificates. If your frame doesn't quite fit, I can advise on getting it properly mounted with a custom mat. But for standard A4 certificates in matching frames, I'll get it centered and looking smart.
Do I need to buy the frame first?
Yes - have your frame ready before I visit. Most certificates are A4 (or close to it), so an A4 frame from any shop works. If it's a special size or you want a professional look with matting, get that sorted first and I'll mount and hang it.
Can you hang multiple certificates together?
Absolutely. Professional qualifications, kids' swimming certificates, degrees - whatever you want displayed. Multiple frames in a line or grid arrangement need careful spacing and level alignment. I'll make sure they look properly organized, not wonky.
My certificate has creases from being folded - can you help?
I can mount it as flat as possible, and the frame glass helps press it flat. For badly creased certificates, ironing on low heat (with a cloth between iron and paper) before framing helps. But I'm a handyman, not a restorer - I'll make it look as good as it can in the frame.
