Every Horia Damian print ships with a hanging kit

The question sounds simple, and the answer is usually yes, but the kit differs by finish and the wall still decides the result.

Auvrique Editorial · Fine Art Editions

The short answer

A Horia Damian print hanging kit is included with every edition we ship. The kit holds two hooks, two nails, and a small level. You will not need extra tools for a standard wall. Heavier framed editions may need a screw instead of a nail, which is the one case worth checking before you drill.

What arrives in the box

The kit is small and complete on purpose. Two picture hooks, two nails, and a short level are the standard contents. That is enough for most drywall and plaster. The print itself is wrapped separately from the hardware, so nothing in the package is loose. If the edition is framed rather than stretched on canvas, the back carries a wire or two hanging points instead of a raw edge. You still get the same small kit, because the frame changes the weight, not the installation method.

A canvas edition hangs from a single hook at the top bar. A framed poster needs two hooks set at the wire span. The difference matters more than the brand of the print. Measure the wire spread before you mark the wall, because a wire set too wide pulls the piece forward and makes the top edge visible from across the room.

How to hang without extra steps

Mark the height first, then the hook positions, because the eye settles on the top third of the image rather than the frame edge. Hold the print against the wall before you drive any nail, and step back far enough to see the balance against the furniture below it. A nail set too high leaves a gap at the bottom that reads as a mistake rather than a choice.

Use the level from the kit on the hooks, not on the print after it is up. A tilted piece is easier to fix at the nail than at the frame. For a heavier framed edition, swap the nail for a screw into a stud or a wall plug, and keep the kit for the lighter work. That one change is the whole difference between a quick hang and a call to the hardware store.

Before you drill

Confirm the edition is canvas or framed, because the hanging point changes
Measure the wire spread on a framed piece before marking the wall
Hold the print against the wall and check the height against the furniture below
Use the level on the hooks, not on the frame after it is mounted

When the kit is not enough

The supplied kit handles most interior walls at normal living-room weight. It does not suit a brick or concrete surface, and it does not replace a plug for anything over the weight limit printed on the frame backing. If the wall is the problem, the print is not at fault. A different fastener solves it without changing the edition.

Auvrique's framed poster editions are built to hang from the included hardware on a standard interior wall. The canvas editions are lighter and usually need only one hook at the top. Neither format asks for tools beyond what is in the box, which is the point of including the kit in the first place.

The kit is not the hard part. The wall decides whether the print hangs straight on the first try.

Key takeaways

Every edition ships with a small hanging kit that covers most interior walls.
Canvas and framed prints use different hanging points, so check the back before marking the wall.
A heavier framed piece may need a screw or plug instead of a nail from the kit.
The level belongs on the hooks, not on the frame after it is mounted.

Related questions

Are prints ready to hang when delivered?

They arrive ready to hang in the sense that the hardware is in the box and no assembly is required. You still need to fix the hooks to the wall and set the height. The print is not pre-mounted, because that would make shipping and handling far more fragile.

What if my wall is not drywall?

The included kit is designed for standard interior plaster or drywall. Brick, concrete, or tiled surfaces need a different fastener, and the kit will not hold on those surfaces. Swap the nail for a plug or a masonry hook and keep the rest of the installation the same.

Do I need any tools beyond what is included?

For a standard wall, no. A hammer is usually enough to drive the nails, and many people already have one. A heavier framed edition may ask for a screwdriver and a wall plug, which is the one case where the kit alone is not the whole answer.
