Medicine Cabinets
Yes! You Can Frame That BARE Medicine Cabinet!
Well, most of them, anyway!
Identify Your Type of Medicine Cabinet
-
Surface-Mounted
These can easily be framed. In STEP 2 of the order process enter 1/4" at the Top, Right, Left and Bottom as the distance from the mirror edge to wall. That way the frame will extend a bit beyond the edge of the mirror so from the side you will not see the mirror "sandwiched" underneath.
-
Recessed
If your medicine cabinet is recessed into the drywall, order a sample to first ensure the door will open when frames.
Ordering for a Recessed Medicine Cabinet
Once you have a sample...
-
1. See if the door opens,when holding the sample 1/4" out from the edge of the door on the hinge side.
If YES, order with 1/4" space on all sides of the mirror.
-
2. If the door cannot open, try the sample flush with edge of the door. Now open the door.
Did door open all the way? If YES: Order with o" space on all sides. If NO, call us at866-304-6283. It still may fit.
Other Considerations
-
Is there a metal strip?
Does a metal strip run around its edges of your medicine cabinet? Call us at 866-304-6283 or email us at info@mirrormate.com and we will advise you.
-
Beveled edge? No worries!
Does your medicine cabinet have a bevel on the edge of the mirror? Is it less than 1" in width? You will lose the bevel but you won't miss it! A frame looks so much more finished! And if you have a recessed frame, do order a sample and follow the instructions above.
