Not only does this type of mirror add a level of elegance and charm to your bathroom or dressing area, it’s also highly functional. The pivoting action allows for various viewing angles. Adjustable tilt mirrors are the perfect choice for kids and little people.
CONSIDER THIS
• To do this project, it’s likely that you’ll be removing an old mirror that might create some wall damage. Some type of wall patch will be required before you install your new mirror.
• Depending on the size of the mirror, I recommend installing it with a helper to assist with lifting and positioning.
• Th e mirror should come with installation hardware. If it does not, be sure to use anchors and screws that can support the weight of the mirror.
• Tilt mirror installations vary depending on style and brand. The following are general instructions for installing this type of mirror. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and safety precautions.
A standard adjustable tilt mirror is shown on the left. The mirror on the right is specifically designed for a person using a wheelchair.
