About

In 2001 we opened “Traditions” in a small store front on Westnedge Ave. In 2004 we moved to a larger location just off Stadium Drive. In the last few years we experienced amazing growth with our commercial clients, and another local frame shop decided to have us do their work for them. With all of that going on, we decided in 2012 that we need even more space. Recently we found a much larger location and in May 2013 we we moved-in!
