Everything you need to know about finding a Mirror Supplier

Mirrors can be used to great effect in the home, whether it is in the bathroom, or in other areas of the home.  As well as being used for daily bathroom activities, mirrors can also be used to help enhance the feeling of space or light within a room, or even an outdoor area.

Types of Mirrors

Mirrors can come framed or frameless.  Frameless mirrors have either a polished or a beveled edge.  Beveling is simply when a narrow border around the edge of the glass is cut with a slight slope or chisel edge.  Beveling is often employed in framed mirrors as well.  Mirrors are usually 4mm or 6mm thick.

There are lots of different types of mirrors as well.  They can be segmented, curved, sandblasted, etched, beveled, tinted, and treated with a range of finishes, meaning that you can get the perfect mirror for your space.  You can opt to have a pre-made mirror but most mirror or glass companies are happy to cut mirrors to your exact specification if possible, meaning that you can create something truly unique.  It’s even possible to get a mirrored splash back for the kitchen! 

Frames come in almost as much variety as the mirror itself.  As well as the popular aluminium frame, you could opt for stainless steel or different types of timber (either smooth or carved into an intricate design) for example.  Of course, the colour choices for frames are virtually limitless. 

Services

Mirror suppliers are able to supply and install mirrors in any shape or size.  They also carry a huge range of frames.  Suppliers are also able to discuss your requirements with you to ensure that you are getting a mirror that suits your needs as well as fitting in with the décor or design of your home.  They can also help you to design a custom mirror.  The professional should provide you with a no-obligation quote before any work is carried out.
