Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before assembly and installation.

  1. This mirror is heavy. Use two people for handling and installation.
  2. Ensure the wall structure is solid and can support the mirror's weight.
  3. Mount the mirror securely to a wall stud or use appropriate wall anchors for your wall type.
  4. Keep away from children during assembly.
  5. Do not mount above beds, sofas, or other furniture where people may lean against it.
  6. Do not use in humid areas (e.g., bathrooms) unless specified as suitable.

WARNING! Improper installation can cause the mirror to fall, resulting in injury or damage.

Step-by-Step Installation

Follow these steps carefully for secure mounting.

  1. Plan the Location: Choose a suitable wall. Use a stud finder to locate wall studs for the most secure mount.
  2. Mark the Wall: Hold the mirror (with help) against the wall at the desired height. Lightly mark the top corners with a pencil. Use a level to ensure marks are even.
  3. Mark Mounting Points: Using the template (if provided) or the mirror itself, mark the exact spots where screws will go.
  4. Drill Holes: Drill holes at marked points using the correct drill bit for your wall. Insert wall plugs if not mounting into a stud.
  5. Attach Brackets: If using separate brackets, screw them securely into the wall at the drilled holes.
  6. Hang the Mirror: With assistance, carefully lift the mirror and hook it onto the mounted brackets or screws. Ensure it is securely seated.
  7. Final Check: Gently test the mirror's stability. Use the level again to ensure it is straight.

Mounting & Leveling

Proper leveling is crucial for appearance and safety.

Tip: Use a long level across the top edge of the mirror for accuracy. Adjust before fully tightening all screws if your mounting system allows.

If the mirror is not level, carefully lift it off the mounts, adjust the wall hardware, and rehang.

WARNING! Do not overtighten screws into the mirror frame, as this may crack the glass or damage the frame.

Care & Cleaning

To maintain the mirror's appearance and longevity.

  1. Unplug any nearby electrical items before cleaning if using liquid cleaners.
  2. Use a soft, lint-free cloth (microfiber recommended).
  3. For cleaning, use a mild glass cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water. Spray onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror.
  4. Wipe gently in a circular motion.
  5. Dry with a separate clean, dry cloth to prevent streaks.

CAUTION! Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or ammonia-based products on the frame. Avoid excessive moisture.
