Why size matters in an RV

Small space. Big personality. The right width turns a blank panel into a focal point without crowding slides, doors, or cabinets.

Quick rule: art width ≈ 40–60% of the wall section you’re decorating.
Leave 2–4" margin on each side. Eye level ≈ 57" from the floor (adjust for seating height).


Pick the perfect size (at a glance)

  • 19.7" / 50 cm – galley, hallway, cabinet ends, above a window.
  • 31.5" / 80 cm – entry panel, small dinette wall.
  • 39.4" / 100 cm – dinette wall, bedroom, sofa side.
  • 47.2" / 120 cm – sofa wall, feature panel in slide-out.
  • 55.1" / 140 cm – main lounge statement, wide slide-out.
  • 63.0" / 160 cm – big feature wall, loft-style home setups.


Where it always looks great

  • Above the dinette: 31.5" or 39.4", centered between window trims.
  • Slide-out side wall: 47.2" or 55.1" tall silhouette, clear of the slide seal.
  • Bedroom headboard: 31.5" or 39.4", leave 3–4" above pillows.
  • Galley/cabinet end: 19.7" or 31.5".
  • Sofa / main lounge feature wall: 55.1" or 63.0" for a statement look.
  • Home or garage wall: 55.1"–63.0" for gallery presence.
  • RV/Camper dealer showroom or office: 63.0" flagship piece — luxury, high-impact.


60-second install (home vs RV)

  • Unbox.
  • Place one wall hook/screw at your centerline.
  • Hang with the built-in hanger. The spacers are integrated—done.
  • If in a moving vehicle (RV/camper/van): add one top hook + a bottom tether so it won’t shift while driving.
  • Best top hook: keyhole-style (recessed)—harder to slip off.
  • Bottom fix options: tiny screw or mini L-clip, or a small hook flipped upside down on the inner lower line of the design.
  • Pro tip: add soft pads (felt dots) to spacer tips to prevent noise or scuffs.
  • No-drill options: heavy-duty adhesive picture/keyhole hooks (repositionable).
  • Match the weight rating; in vehicles pair with a small mechanical bottom fix (mini L-clip or inverted hook).
  • We’ve also seen many other smart ways to secure them—the RV community is endlessly creative.

Built to travel

  • 2 mm steel for crisp lines and rigidity.
  • Powder-coated matte finish that shrugs off humidity and fingerprints.
  • Integrated spacers cast a soft shadow = instant depth.
  • Wipe clean with a dry microfiber. Covered outdoor use is OK.

Real-world layout ideas

  • Pair a 31.5"–39.4" RV silhouette with a slim National Parks print stack.
  • Create a mini route wall: silhouette (31.5"–39.4") + small map decal of your last trip.
  • Above a window or cabinet run, use 19.7" or 31.5" for a clean, balanced line.
  • Over the sofa, go big: 47.2"–55.1" (or 63.0" for a true statement).
  • Bedroom headboard: 31.5"–39.4", centered with 3–4" clearance above pillows.
  • Slide-out feature wall: 47.2"–55.1" tall silhouette (hung horizontally), clear of the slide seal.

FAQs (quick)

Will it rattle?
Proper mounting is key — one top hook plus a small bottom tether stops any movement in RVs. At home, one hook is enough.

Will it scratch the wall?
No — add tiny soft pads (felt dots) to the spacer tips and you’re set.

How fast is shipping?
Free to the US, Canada, and EU — fast turnaround with tracking.
