I've been a customer of "Frames on 3rd" for going on 6 years now. Rob and his partner are Awesome with a capital "A". Great work every time. Quality and attention to detail are top priorities when it comes to custom framing. If you have an heirloom, archival, cherished, invaluable, any 2D work you care about getting framed, do not hesitate using this great framing shop. In this world, you get what you pay for and if you value what's behind that UV Plex, then Frames on 3rd delivers consistently. A small San Francisco business that's run and done right. Big thumbs up.

This has to be the best frame shop in the city! I been coming here for a few years now after getting an extrondinary high quote at another shop for a large piece of art work. They do an amazing job, fast and cost effectively. And they are full of great tips on how to make the work out stand out to its best.
Additionally, they are incredibly awesome and gave me awesome tips for what to check out in the neighborhood :o) -

Hands down, Frames on 3rd is the best value in San Francisco. I shopped around and their prices consistently came in 20% less than other framing stores in the City.
Rob is a great guy, who is full of humor and consistently helpful. Their framing is of the highest standard and if you don't have a car the new 3rd street Muni drop you right at their front door. I recommend their services fully. -

Just wanted to update this. I took a painting in to be framed last week. Earlier in the day, I had been to Michael's, the arts and crafts chain store, for an estimate on framing that same painting. With some moderate help from Michael's, I picked out a frame I liked -- and they priced it at $270 including tax (23x35" painting).
But, I like Frames on 3rd, and I definitely try to purchase local before going to a chain. So I went back to Frames on 3rd. For starters, they had much better cheap options than Michael's. But I wasn't only concerned about price -- I wanted a great frame. So the staff spent 15-20 minutes walking me through different options and throwing out suggestions. Much better than Michael's. Finally, we picked the perfect frame, and it came out to $300, including tax. For a 10 percent premium, I got to support local business and get a much higher quality product and better service.1 Previous Review: Show all »

I really like these guys. For starters, the prices seem reasonable. I brought in a 36x36" poster I… Read more »

I had a gorgeous print made for my man's Birthday last year. I had been stashing until the right moment.
I am lucky to live right around the corner from this GEM!
Rob did a fabulous job framing the work, and got it done WAY QUICKER then what he told me... I think almost a week early! Quite well priced.
Go for it. -

It's possible that one of these four stars comes from the fact that this place is within spitting distance of my apartment. Another star might come from the fact that I feel like a real live grown up now that I've actually got posters _in frames_ that one day or another I'll hang up in my apartment. The other stars are for the massive selection of frame options and the extremely kind and friendly frame dudes. I can't give Frames on 3rd a full five stars because the prices seemed really steep. Next time I'll call before I go to get an estimate and attempt to drive a hard(er) bargain.

Frames on 3rd Rocks. I had my YSL poster from the de Young exhibit framed here and I found the perfect frame within moments of walking into the shop. The guy who helped me out was friendly and gave me a price breakdown so I knew exactly how much my framing options cost. I got my framed poster back promptly and I have a feeling it's going to be around for a long time!

Provided helpful advice without any noticeable "upsell." They did what I wanted them to do, at a price that was reasonable (within the inexplicably expensive world of framing). I think the best praise one can give is "will do business again," and I will.

So, I haven't had any work done here, yet but I will be going to them in the future. I called because I have a project with a quick turnaround time, Rob was very polite but told me they could not meet my 24hr turn around time. He then proceeded to give me names of the all the stores near us that could. Great customer service when he knew he would not be benefiting. I will for sure use them for my future framing needs.

I had a unique request of stretching several sheets of vinyl. Done earlier than the deadline, professionally, courteous, and very affordable.
