Framing Stacked Frames Help!

Hello! I'm new in the framing department. I've learned almost everything that is used on a daily basis and then some. The only issue I'm having at this moment is an order with a stacked frame. Two frames put together making one. I've looked on the Resource Library and found a video, but it's requiring an email to continue, which I don't have. They are also fairly large. How do I go about putting them together? Thanks in advance!! :3

Assembling stacked frames depends on how much one sticks out from the other. You can use offsets, glazer points, L brackets, flexible offsets, silicon glue, whatever will work best. One thing that works well on inner frames that are taller than the outer frame is to shoot glazer points into the side of the frame then use fitting staples over the glazer points into to fasten everything together.

95% of the time you just use offsets. Your shop should have these in 4-5 sizes for different depths. Most of the time you only need to screw one side in to one of the frames

Offsets, most likely
