Also known as: Mirror Mounting Systems, Mirror Brackets, Mirror Safety Hardware

Mirror Hardware encompasses specialized mounting systems, safety features, and installation components designed specifically for secure and safe mirror installation in wardrobe applications.

Mounting Systems

Mirror mounting hardware includes various bracket types, adhesive systems, and mechanical fasteners designed to support mirror weight while allowing for thermal expansion and building movement.

Safety Features

Modern mirror installations incorporate safety backing films, tempered glass specifications, and breakage-resistant mounting methods to prevent injury in the event of glass failure.

Types of Mirrors

Wardrobe mirrors include full-length door mounted mirrors, sliding mirror doors, and interior mirrors. Each type requires specific hardware solutions based on weight, size, and mounting requirements.

Installation Considerations

Proper mirror installation requires consideration of wall structure, moisture conditions, thermal expansion, and building movement. Mounting systems must accommodate these factors while maintaining secure attachment.

Edge Treatment

Mirror hardware often includes edge protection systems, sealing components, and finishing trim to protect mirror edges from moisture and impact while providing a professional appearance.

Weight Distribution

Large mirrors require multiple mounting points and weight distribution systems to prevent stress concentration and ensure long-term stability. Load calculations are essential for safe installation.

Maintenance Access

Hardware systems should allow for cleaning access and potential mirror replacement without damaging surrounding wardrobe components or wall finishes.
