- Size. As each portfolio is individually made, we can accommodate any size of media, such as A6, A5, A4, A3 and A2. Simply select the size of the page that is closest to the one you need and then let us know in the comments section the exact size of the page or media that you are placing inside the portfolio and we will make an exact fit for you.

- It's Bespoke To Your Requirements. As mentioned above we can make your portfolio to any size and any configuration. If there is a particular colour, feature or embellishment you want that's not featured in any of these tabs, just ask.

- Help. If you are having any problems when placing your order, please feel free to contact us directly. We can't take payments over the phone, but we can certainly help you with placing your order.

- Size? Is based on the size of the media being placed inside the portfolio or binder. We work on generic international and US sizes, but can make to any size. If the size of the media is not mentioned here we will either ask you to pick the closest size we feature (for pricing purposes) and then you can tell what size the media is, or will make out a special order for you.
- Orientation? Portrait means the media sits vertically and is bound along the long edge.
Landscape means the media sits horizontally and is bound along the short edge.
- Protectors, Sleeves or Hinge Strips? This is important for us to know. If your page is being placed in page protectors/pockets, then we must allow for the cover to be larger height and width. Also our H&Co pockets maybe a different size to other suppliers, which is why we ask this question.
If using file or hinge strips, your portfolio will be narrower but longer than page protectors. .

- What length of screw post?. The length of the posts depends on how much is being placed inside the portfolio. A standard width of 2cm fits approximately 25 page protectors in it.

- How. There are 2 options open to you regarding your personalisation. Either we can set out your wording using one of our house fonts as below, a larger version can be found here.

Alternatively, you can send us finished and ready to use artwork in the form of an .ai or .eps file. It must be right reading. Anything stamped must be in black (not greyscale or colour) on a white background. No JPEG's or PNG files please. Our finished artwork specification can be found here.

- How is it done? We use the artwork you send us, or that we set out. to create a metal (magnesium) stamping die (picture below) which we attach to our stamping press and then create an impression on to the cover of your portfolio.

- Where. Your personalisation can be placed anywhere you like. In order to do this we make a metal die of your name/logo. We can also use the same die to stamp, to make a second stamp to stamp the same thing elsewhere, i.e. On the spine (cost £20.00).

- Can I have more than one? Yes, you can have as many personalisations as you like, but each will require a new die and therefore an extra charge

- What are my personalisation options? There are 5 options. They are:
-  Blind Deboss - Heavy impression with no colour.

-  Colour Block Foiled - Light impression with colour foil infill.

-  Leaving A Recessed Space - An area of any size is inset into the cover where upon you can place a card within the space.

-  Plaque with Name Foiled - As above, an area is inset into the cover, but we create a plaque and foil or blind deboss a name or logo.

-  Cut Out Window With Logo Foiled - A window (of any shape) is cut into the cover and a name/logo is foiled or blind debossed within.

-  UV Printed - A name or logo is colour printed onto the cover.

The Creation Of A Future Family Heirloom

The process starts with a very big piece of book binding grey board, some glue and some rolls of book cloth and from there, the measuring and the cutting begins. Your keepsake and memory box is made entirely be hand, piece by piece. Once cut to size, the boards are laminated for double thickness and then traditionally step-jointed for maximum rigidity and strength.
This is how a quality bespoke box has to be made - If there was another way, then we'd be doing it.

Made To Your Exact Specification

You choose the size, you choose the format, the materials and then lastly we stamp your names on the cover.
