FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the mirror?

The mirror measures 5 feet 3 inches (160cm) in height and 2 feet 5 inches (75cm) in width.

Is the frame truly waterproof or just frost protected?

The frame is described as frost protected, indicating it is designed to withstand cold temperatures and general weather. For longevity, it's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water.

Can this mirror be hung indoors?

While designed for outdoor use, it can be hung indoors if the rustic aesthetic suits your decor. Ensure appropriate fixings are used for indoor wall types.

What type of screws should I use for mounting?

The type of screws and wall fixings will depend on your wall material (e.g., brick, wood, plasterboard). It is recommended to use robust, exterior-grade screws appropriate for your wall type and the mirror's weight.

How do I clean the mirror glass?

Use a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild glass cleaner. Wipe dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads.

Does the mirror come with mounting hardware?

The product description mentions using screws in the wall and hooking keyways on the back, implying screws are not included. Users should supply their own appropriate mounting hardware.

Troubleshooting

Mirror is unstable after hanging

Ensure the screws used for mounting are adequately long and secure in the wall. Check that the keyways on the mirror are properly seated on the screw heads. Consider using stronger wall fixings if the wall surface is soft.

Glass appears fogged or cloudy in damp conditions

This is normal condensation. Allow the mirror to air dry naturally. Ensure no water is trapped behind the frame.

Frame finish appears to be peeling

The rustic finish is intentionally distressed. If significant peeling occurs, contact customer support. Ensure only gentle cleaning methods are used.

  • Generous size makes a strong visual impact.

Cons

  • Requires secure mounting due to its size and weight.
  • Rustic finish may not suit modern garden designs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the desired location for the mirror. Ensure the wall surface is suitable for mounting.
  2. Locate the keyway slots on the back of the mirror.
  3. Mark the wall where screws will be placed, aligning with the keyway positions. Use appropriate wall plugs if necessary for your wall type.
  4. Securely install screws into the wall, leaving enough of the screw head exposed to catch the keyway slots.
  5. Hang the mirror by aligning the keyways with the screw heads and lowering it into place.

Compatibility:

This mirror is designed for outdoor garden use and is compatible with most solid wall surfaces such as brick, stone, or rendered walls. It is not intended for indoor use unless specifically desired for a rustic aesthetic.

Care:

  • Clean the mirror glass regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.
  • Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain secure.
  • The rustic frame can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
