Deker 3,494 Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I really could do with some help here please.I'm after a cheap bathroom mirror, frameless, (bevelled if you like but not worried) for the wall. 4 screw holes (not 2), or none, and I'll get mirror fittings. Size max 18 x 12" (46 x 30 cm), Min 15 x 10" (38 x 25cm), it will be mounted landscape fashion not portrait.Now this sounds simple, but they don't seem to exist, I have scoured all types of shops and the web, apart from the fact I'm really struggling to find anything close, the ones I can see are silly money, whatever happened to the days of walking into the DIY store and finding stacks of shrink wrapped mirrors in all sorts of shapes and sizes at cheap money?So, where can I find one please?Cheers!

Deker 3,494 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 is there not a local glazing company that could help, they will do mirrors Not that I can find, they all want silly money! Is it just me, I can recall stacks of mirrors in the DIY stores all shapes and sizes £10-£15 (yep, cheap (and nasty) but fine for what I want). They just don't seem to exist anymore, everything starts £40 and some skyrocket, I just need a smallish, simple, cheap, rectangular mirror, with holes in the corners.

walshie 2,804 Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Stig could sell you one from his Emporium, but it would likely cost more than the wall you want to hang it on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
