Understanding the dimension of IKEA picture frames vs the standard paper sizes in Ireland

Navigating IKEA's picture frame aisle can be a breeze once you understand how their metric frame sizes relate to the standard paper sizes you're familiar with in Ireland. While IKEA's 30x40 cm or 50x70 cm measurements are precise, figuring out if your A4 or A3 print will fit perfectly, or if it will require a mount, can be tricky. This guide is here to help you match your prints to the ideal IKEA frame
