Photo Frame problem

legarlu — Fri, 20 Sep 2024 05:25:07 GMT

I have a bit of a problem with a photo frame I bought. Can't work out how to open the back to put a picture behind the glass. There is no tabs to pull out. The back that should open is approx 55mm x 55mm. I've added pics of the back and front of frame.

can you do it from the front (or is it glass)?

It's glass.

Can you carefully pop out the small card with something like the blunt end of a nail file ?

Duct tape or sticky tape - then pull. LOL

Tried sticky tape and nail file and it won't budge. Will try suction with vacuum cleaner.

Can you push it out gently from the front?

Do you think it's just stick in very tightly, or is the glass possibly 'stuck' to the card due to either glue or the age of the frame?

Perhaps it's time for an 'Item not as described' if it's not fit for purpose. If you try to do too much more your claim will be rejected on the grounds that you damaged it.

The front is glass.

That's what I was thinking

And that maybe that 'stuff' on the glass is some kind of glue residue which is why the card insert will not budge ? (possibly)
