Before starting the installation
Please read the instructions carefully and check that the product is completely intact before you start the installation.
Installation instructions are also available as a video. Read the QR code below.
Note that the mirror is to be mounted using the hooks located at the top edge of the mirror. If there are hooks at the bottom edge as well, these are for attaching legs.
Keep the mirror always dry. Do not let it get wet. Moisture can cause oxidation of the mirror.
You will need the following tools and supplies
- Pen and measure + spirit level
- Screwdriver or screw gun
- For installation in a stone wall, you will need an impact driver/drill and a 6 mm blade
The included screws and plugs are for stone or wooden walls
A step-by-step guide for hanging your mirror
-
Be cautious of the edges of the mirror at every step, as they are sensitive and can easily break even from minor impacts. Also, be careful not to scratch the mirror’s back coating with the hook.
-
Install the mirror on the wall using the hooks located on the back of the mirror. The mirror is attached only to the hooks located at the top edge. Any hooks located at the bottom edge are meant for legs, not for mounting. Depending on the mirror model, the hooks may also come separately and need to be attached before installation.
The attachment of hooks to the mirror (if the hooks are not already on the mirror) -
Plan the locations for the hooks and determine the orientation in which you intend to install the mirror.
-
Place the mirror on the floor or a table with the mirror surface facing down. ENSURE that there is NO dirt or anything else under the mirror that could scratch its surface.
-
Wipe the back surface of the mirror with a dry cloth around the area where the hooks will be attached.
-
Remove the protective film from the hook’s surface and press the hook onto the back surface of the mirror with moderate force for about 30 seconds.
-
Allow the adhesive on the hooks to dry for about 30 minutes. After this, you can proceed with installing the mirror on the wall.
If your mirror already has hooks installed, continue from here: -
Plan the location of the mirror and measure the positions for the hooks. The included fasteners are suitable for stone and wooden walls. If your wall material is different, we recommend getting screws that match your wall material.
-
After screwing the hooks into the wall, place the mirror in position. Ensure that the hooks align perfectly with the loops on the back of the mirror and go through them. NOTE: Be careful, if the wall hook is installed incorrectly, it may hit the hook on the mirror’s back surface, causing a scratch visible from the front too.
-
If the mirror comes with legs and you want to install it leaning against the floor, the legs attach to the back of the mirror with magnets. The legs have height adjustment, and it’s recommended to leave a gap of 2-4 mm between the mirror and the floor.
-
Remove the plastic shield from the top of the mirror. If there is adhesive residues on the mirror surface, it can be easily removed with a microfiber cloth or with glass cleaning detergent.

Care instructions
The need to clean the mirror depends on the environmental conditions. We recommend cleaning the glass surfaces regularly, at least once a year. Good cleaning tools for mirrors are a damp cloth or sponge, a soft lint-free cloth, and a rubber squeegee. Glass cleaning detergent can be used for mirror cleaning. For tough stains can be used denatured alcohol or acetone, but be careful not to let the substance come into contact with metal structures or the back of the mirror.
Please note
Never use abrasive or abrasive materials or tools. Use a soft and clean cloth for cleaning. To prevent scratching, cleaning tools should be clean and as soft as possible; always remove any loose dirt before abrasive cleaning.
