Thing to Keep in Mind When Hanging Your Large Mirrors

 Did you just find the best place to hang your large mirror?

A custom mirror is a great way to finish off a bathroom remodel or at-home gym installation because it can make a room feel brighter and more open.  

There are a few things you should keep in mind when choosing how and where you plan to hang your mirror! 

Keep in Mind when Hanging Your Mirror

Mirror glue and mastic are adhesives specifically formulated for use with mirrors.  Other generic or general-purpose construction adhesives may secure the mirror to the wall, but the chemicals in those adhesives will eat away at the mirror backing over time.  Eventually, you will have black spots across your mirror wherever you used this adhesive.  Always use a mirror-specific glue/mastic.

If the mirror is in a space with a higher risk of impact or breakage, like a fitness room, you might want to use a product called safety backing; Safety backing is a special tape that is applied to the back of the mirror that will hold the mirror intact if it gets damaged.
