Extremely configurable frame pricing spreadsheet. Just add a price code to each of your frame samples, configure the mark-ups to suit your business, and you are good to go. We had blank framing dockets that were filled out by hand to give to our customers. We started our business with this, it served us well for the first year or so.

Maximum Frame Size calculator
The Maximum Frame Size calculator, will do the sums for you. Not only will it calculate the maximum frame size that can be made from a given length of moulding, but it will also calculate the (theoretical) length of moulding required to make a frame of given dimensions.
Just enter the Moulding Length and Moulding width and the app will calculate the largest frame that can be made from that length.
- Calculate the length of moulding required to make a frame
Also, by selecting the second line of text and entering the Moulding Width, Frame Width, and Frame Height, the program will compute the length of moulding required to make the frame. Additionally, there is an option to specify the number of frames and percentage waste.
