I'm not one to write reviews but I wanted to let people know about my experience at Walter Adams Framers in the inner-sunset. I came in a few months ago with an old photograph of my mother from the 1950's, it was faded and stuck to some old cardboard. The young man who helped me was very courteous and patient and carefully removed the photo from the cardboard and asked what I had in mind for framing, I said I mainly wanted to preserve it, so he suggested a very simple frame with a double mat to accent the color in the photo, and he also took the time to explain that the materials they use were would preserve the piece forever. They said it would take two weeks to finish and that seemed like a long time for me, but once again he explained that they had four stores and that was the standard turnaround time to ensure quality for each job.
When I got the call that it was ready, I went in and he unwrapped the piece and I was blown away by the quality of the framing. The whole thing, the mats, the frame were cut perfectly, and it is also preserved with uv glass, which is all that they use.
I suggest anyone wanting to frame something with care and quality to visit one of their stores.
