Substrate –

Our standard backing or substrate is acoustic felt board or an MDF board which is included in our standard pricing. We also often use a baltic birch ply if there are structural consideration which can add a small amount to the cost. Structural consideration includes appended signage.

Edge Finish

The edge detail don’t often have a large effect on the overall pricing but can add $5-25/ square foot. One factor that that effects the frame cost is on large walls, this generally has to be done on-site due to shipping constraints, the cost of this is dependent on local labor rates.
