Glass thickness:
Glass comes in a variety of thicknesses from 2mm - 10mm. Standard commercial grade is 5mm while retail thicknesses tend to be between 2-4 mm. Typically the thicker the glass the more durable the product.
Grade quality:
We make sure the glass is being produced by a credible factory. Sub standard glass can lead to distorted reflections and impurities in colour.
Ultra-reflective coatings:
It is also important to consider the reflective coating. For optimal reflection, specify a silver base coating. For commercial based projects, aluminum based coatings are typically suggested.
Bevels:
We offer all sizes of bevels but primarily suggest a 1” bevel, a mild slant on the edge of the mirror that will catch the light for interesting visual effect.
Tinting:
Tints can be applied to any object made of glass, from darkening to frosted finish films that closely resemble sandblasted or acid etched glass.
Security install:
We use the industry standard ‘J-rail mounting system’ for anti-tamper, secure wall mounting.
