When do I need a mirror with safety film?

We recommend a mirror with safety film wherever there is a risk of breakage and injury. If the mirror breaks, the pieces of glass stay attached to the film instead of falling down.

Think of these situations:

  • floor-to-ceiling mirrors
  • mirrors you could fall or bump against, which could break the glass
  • mirror walls for sport and dance, such as in a home gym, sports school, fitness room or physiotherapy practice
  • mirrors in public spaces, such as shops, fitting rooms and hospitality venues
  • mirrors in a production environment

A mirror above the washbasin of, for example, 600 x 800 mm, or a wall mirror in the living room or hallway, does not necessarily need safety film. The chance that you fall against it and pieces of glass come down is small. In the end, you decide what suits your situation.

 

Large mirrors

Through the website you can order a mirror up to 1500 x 3000 mm. With safety film, this is possible up to 2000 x 3000 mm.

 

Mounting

You mount a mirror with safety film using mirror adhesive, a mirror profile or mirror clips. Mirror tape and concealed mounting kits do not stick to the film, so you cannot use them.

Do not let the price difference decide your choice: glass can cause serious injury in an accident. Also check your insurance policy to see whether you are covered for personal injury to yourself or others caused by, for example, a broken mirror.

You can read what the film is and does in what a mirror with safety film is. You can order one from our range of custom safety mirrors.
