Sizing help

Use roughly 1 inch of round mirror diameter per 1 foot of viewing distance as a starting estimate. Confirm the sightline, mounting position and mirror size for your location.

Buyer fit check

Choose the safety-border mirror when the mirror itself needs to be noticed

The striped border makes the visibility aid stand out in busy indoor environments where people move quickly or may otherwise overlook a standard mirror.

Good fit for

  • ✓Warehouse aisles, schools, retail backrooms, offices, and facility intersections
  • ✓Pedestrian and cart traffic where the mirror should double as a visual warning cue
  • ✓Indoor installations where hardboard backing is appropriate and weather exposure is not a concern

Choose another style when

  • →Choose outdoor convex mirrors for moisture, wind, or driveway exposure.
  • →Choose dome mirrors when the hazard needs multi-direction coverage.

FAQ+

What’s the difference between Z and telescoping brackets? Z-brackets are close-wall indoor mounts with pivot-ball aiming behind the mirror. Telescoping brackets adjust from 14.5″ to 21.5″ and are the right choice for outdoor, pole, and larger-mirror installs.

Does acrylic yellow in the sun? Our acrylic is UV-stabilized. Unlike low-grade imported mirrors, it will not haze or yellow over normal outdoor life.

Can I get a custom SKU? Yes — if your size, backing, or bracket is not listed, contact us for a custom quote.

National Safety Mirror's Indoor Convex Mirrors are a practical solution for enhancing safety and awareness within your business or organization. These acrylic mirrors feature a bright yellow and black safety border to ensure clear visibility, making them ideal for various indoor locations.

Safety and Functionality Combined with our Convex Mirrors with Safety Border

FAQ

How do acrylic and polycarbonate compare for impact and scratching?

Impact resistance describes resistance to a strike or shattering; it does not describe surface hardness or scratch resistance. NSM uses approximate material comparisons of 15× glass for acrylic and 250× for polycarbonate. Published figures vary by grade, thickness and test: Advanced Plastiform, for example, cites about 10× for acrylic and 250× for polycarbonate. Acrylic is generally more scratch resistant than uncoated polycarbonate, while glass is harder at the surface. These material comparisons are not a model-specific test rating or a bullet-resistance certification.

What are the return and warranty terms?

Report shipping damage within seven business days of delivery. For non-warranty returns, request an RMA within 30 days of receipt and return the merchandise within 30 days after the RMA is issued. Approved returns must be new and in original packaging; a 25% restocking fee and buyer-paid return shipping apply. Special, discounted, large-quantity and ALL SALES FINAL orders are excluded as detailed in the Returns policy. The manufacturer provides a one-year replacement warranty for defects in material or workmanship under normal use and care, subject to its full warranty terms.

How should I clean and care for an acrylic mirror?

Use spray wax or plastic polish on the front surface and wipe with a clean, soft cloth. Do not use glass cleaners. Washing with a soft cloth works, but repeated washing can gradually create fine scratches. Read the Acrylic Mirror Care guide for cleaning, drilling, and fastener precautions.

How do I choose the right mirror for my space?

Start with the application — driveway exit, warehouse aisle, blind intersection, retail surveillance, or vehicle inspection — then size by viewing distance using the 1 inch of diameter per 1 foot of viewing distance rule. If you'd like a recommendation, contact NSM with your installation context and we'll narrow the right size, lens, backing, and mount.

What if I need help picking the exact configuration?

Use the live options table above to compare every purchasable row by size, bracket, and price. If you're between two configurations, contact NSM directly before checkout — bulk pricing, government quotes, and project-specific sizing guidance are all available at no charge.
