Klip Frame Packers
Klip Frame Packers – Secure-Hold Packers for Window & Door Frame Installation
Klip frame packers are specialist frame packers designed to hold more securely around the fixing point during window and door frame installation.
Unlike a standard loose frame packer, a klip frame packer is shaped to grip around the fixing area. This helps reduce packer movement, rotation, or drop-out while the installer aligns the frame and tightens the fixing. This makes klip frame packers useful when fitting frames in awkward positions, working around fixing points, or installing windows and doors where the packer needs to stay stable before the fixing is fully tightened.
Klip frame packers help support the frame, maintain a consistent gap, and reduce the risk of the frame being pulled out of shape during installation. They are suitable for professional frame fitting work across uPVC, aluminium, and timber systems.

What Makes Klip Frame Packers Different?
Klip frame packers are designed to make frame installation easier by helping the packer stay located around the fixing point.
With a standard frame packer, the packer can sometimes slip, rotate, or fall out before the fixing is tightened. A klip frame packer helps reduce this by gripping around the fixing area, giving the installer more control while positioning and securing the frame.
This can be useful when:
- The packer needs to stay positioned around a fixing point
- The installer is working in a restricted or awkward area
- The frame needs to be held square and plumb before tightening
- A loose packer may rotate or move during installation
- Extra control is needed while fixing window or door frames
- The frame-to-opening gap needs reliable support
Klip frame packers are especially useful for professional installers who want a more secure alternative to standard loose frame packers.
Choosing the Right Klip Frame Packer
Choose the klip frame packer size based on the available space behind the frame, the fixing position, and the amount of support required.
- 50x50x3.3mm Klip Frame Packers are a compact option where a square support area is suitable around the fixing point.
- 50x60x3.3mm Klip Frame Packers provide a longer support area while keeping the same 3.3mm klip profile.
- 50x60x7.2mm Klip Frame Packers have a deeper klip profile and are useful where a more substantial secure-hold packer is required.
Choose the thickness based on the frame-to-opening gap. Thinner packers are useful for fine adjustment, while thicker packers provide more support where the gap is larger or the opening is uneven.
