how to evaluate
You’ve Got Samples,
Now What?
Place it against the mirror
Set each sample against your existing mirror, and step back ~3ft to evaluate. Frames look very different from this perspective vs holding a sample up close!
View in different lighting
If your bathroom has a window, view your samples in your bathroom during morning, afternoon and evening to see how the color looks in different light.
Compare with wall color
Compare your color options to your wall color and evaluate how the frame complements its wall background. Some people prefer stark contrast, and others prefer more subtle styles.
Compare with hardware
Compare your color options to your bathroom hardware. Frames that are in the same color family as your hardware are a great choice!
FAQs
Will this work for mirrors that have clips or a metal channel?
Yes! Our frames are specially designed to cover and hide the clips and channels holding your existing mirror. The patented frames work seamlessly with almost all clips, with the exception of large plastic clips that are both 1” wide and 1” long. In this case, you can use the replacement clips included in with order. If your clips are plastic, but smaller than 1” you should not need replacement clips.
What if I don’t have extra space around my mirror?
Don’t worry, this happens all the time! Since the frame attaches directly to the mirror, no space is needed around the mirror. In the order process, when asked about space around your mirror, you will just select 0”. Your frame will be cut to fit your space.
Will the humidity from the shower affect the adhesive on the frame?
Our frames are compatible with most plate glass mirrors, including those that rest on a backsplash or abut a wall. They attach directly to the glass without needing space around the mirror and are even designed to conceal any existing clips and channels.
Are the frames easily removable?
Yes. If the frame must come off we recommend using dental floss or fishing line to separate the foam tape from the mirror. We suggest you use Goof-Off, or a citrus-based cleaner to remove the rest of the tape from the surface of the mirror. Please understand that we cannot guarantee that your frame would be usable should you choose to remove it. E-mail info@mirrormate.com for removal instructions. It will be necessary for us to send you replacement tape and placement corners.

This is our second Mirror Mate frame. We just love the look and the quality is so nice. Easy to install and upgrades your bathroom or any room for that matter!

I ordered the Essex Black Tie frame. The packing was great. Great instructions too! The mounting blocks are critical component to installation. They're just thick enough to allow you to rest the frame on them after you've removed the backing from the tape, then slowly press the frame to the mirror. Other reviews are absolutely correct about how powerful the tape is, which is a good thing so the mirror stays in place 😀.
The only problem I had was how difficult it was to squeeze the glue from the bottle. The glue bottle plastic was hard to squeeze. Might be worth considering using a glue bottle with a brush applicator 🤔.
I'm super impressed with how perfect the mitered corners are, how perfectly they fit together, and the connectors.
I love the frame and how much it improved my bathroom. Great job MirrorMate!
