KAIU Vinyl Record Frame – Solid Wood Album Frames for Vinyl Records Accessories Gifts to Mount on Wall, 13.8 x 13.6 x 2 Inch Display Cover with Clear Acrylic – BLACK

After living 2+ years in my apartment, I finally decided to hang things on my wall (yes I'm lazy). I knew I wanted something music related so I spent hours looking online for ideas. I randomly found a photo of one of these and eventually found this product on Amazon. These are amazing frames that take no more than a couple minutes to install. You only need one nail to hang, but I recommend using the extra nails to secure the frame. The reason for this is, when you open the frame to slide the vinyl cover in/out, the frame becomes unbalanced and begins to rotate towards the heavier side. It's pretty annoying. I'm currently using one nail for these but plan on using command mounting strips (as someone else mentioned in the comments) to secure the frames. It would be great if these were included in the box as an alternative to adding more holes to your walls. I was skeptical about buying these after reading some of the comments. I realized though that most people were complaining about the paint job on the black frames. I bought the natural and couldn't be happier. The film used to protect the acrylic can get stuck on the edges when removing. It happened on two of the four frames. I was able to remove that extra plastic with some tweezers. I won't be removing a star for that. I plan on on adding two more rows of frames so you know I'm happy with my purchase! Update 1.17.2020 Still Loving them! I added an extra photo with the extra two rows.

The KAIU Vinyl Record Frame exceeded my expectations. It’s well-built with solid wood, and its clean, minimalist design adds a touch of elegance to any space. I used it to display a signed vinyl album, and it looks absolutely amazing on the wall. The UV protection is a fantastic bonus — helping preserve both the cover and the signature over time. Highly versatile and easy to mount, this frame is a must-have for collectors who want to proudly and safely showcase their favorite records.

We bought one of these to give as a gift but the top was a bit warped. The person receiving the frame was driven crazy by this, which was embarrassing for us as the gift givers. It may have warped while being hung up, we're not sure. We wrote the seller. They got back to us quickly, requesting a photo and said they would ship us another frame. It all went smoothly. The replacement frame was square. The wood is a bit soft and is completely unfinished. Both frames already had hardware at the center top, but also came with more hardware and screws if you wanted to attach it to your walls more solidly. The magnets work well but don't have to be forcefully pried apart. The hinges seem solid. The back is open so you can see the back cover, but it doesn't have an acrylic back which would be more protective but would probably add to the cost. Info below is added because we’ve seen a lot of people ask if the various record frames available on Amazon will hold double vinyl and/or gatefold records... A (reissued) double vinyl gatefold with the vinyl still in the cover fit with a little work. Not sure how thick or different eras of vintage vinyl might compare. The fit is tight, which might be a no-go for serious collectors as they probably aren’t wanting to squish the cover and have the frame rubbing so much when pulling records. However, it *is* possible to access the records and pull them out without removing the whole cover from the frame. A gatefold with one record is a good fit. A single record - good fit. We don't have any tri-folds, but with doubles being tight, tri-folds probably won't fit at all, even if it's just the cover you want to frame. If you plan on listening to whatever record(s) you want to frame but are worried about damaging the cover, framing is probably not for you. Anything consistently rubbing against the cover *will* cause damage eventually. Instead, maybe frame a 300 dpi scan and print of your cover. Then keep your records in clear poly album sleeves when stored to reduce the inevitable damage from rubbing. Hope this helps!

I have ordered several of these over the past 2-3 years for my vinyl collection. I love the ability to remove and replace records with ease by opening or pulling through the side, if the frame is already mounted. I used extra strong command strips to hang mine and they seem to hold well, however, one of them did fall and the hinge got bent and broke off after one fall, so unfortunately that one is not usable anymore. I also remember these frames being half the price that they are now, about a year ago, and I would say it is not worth the price increase - which is why I only gave 4 stars. I originally paid about $15-$18 a frame for this product, which is much more reasonable for quality. Overall, a decent product and great way to display your records

Love this - looks great on the wall! Got my friend a UB40 album for his 40th birthday. He displayed it and on the backside has the card everyone signed.

Exactly what my daughter was looking for she’s really into vinyls and wanted to display a few of her favorites. I got these which worked perfect perfectly because not only can. She display her finals, but she could also listen to them.

Already own 2, just ordered 2 more. If you want a nice display, this is it. The only problem I see is the side is open to slide the vinyl in and out, so it is not airtight if you are also looking to shield and protect it for long-term. So maybe it is a 4 star. But it is advertised as a display, not a protector - so I'm giving it a 5 for being a wonderful display frame. Would order again for this purpose.

Really like the look of these as well as the functionality. Easy to load the records in and remove. Also look nicer then the normal cheap plastic ones.

Absolutely perfect. I've mounted it so that the hinge is at the bottom (ie you open the frame by pulling the top down) and it's on the wall above my turntable. This means I can display the cover of the album that is playing (and it stops me from putting it on the table and rushing someone using it as a drinks coaster! ). Sturdy, strong magnetic catch means that this works with no danger of a heavyweight cover making it fall open. Really pleased.

Era un regalo ed è stato molto gradito ben rifinito per la sua funzione

On ne peut faire plus simple

These frames are perfect for displaying single or double gate album covers. See pictures below... Radiohead's OK Computer (bottom) is a 2-LP double gatefold and I had no issues getting it in the frame. The hinged front piece makes it easy to swap covers out too. Really good product.

Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Rahmen. Habe mir drei Stück gekauft und sie sind genau wie erwartet. Die Rille, in die die Platte eingeschoben wird, ist nicht zu rau, was meine größte Sorge war. Die Magnete haben genau die richtige Stärke, um die Tür angenehm öffnen zu könne und sie trotzdem sicher geschlossen zu halten. Die Montage habe ich ein wenig anders gelöst als vorgesehen: Befestigt man den Rahmen nur oben, wackelt er stark und hängt immer schief. Wenn man einen Nagel in die untere linke Ecke setzt (innerhalb des Rahmen aber nicht durch den Rahmen selber), hängt er grade und sicher. In meinem Fall waren die Rahmen noch voller Sägemehl aus der Herstellung. Muss nicht sein ist aber keine große Sache.
