Everything you need to know

Mounting & installation+

  • Z-bracket — small indoor mirrors (12″–18″), flat wall mount.
  • Single telescoping T-bracket — the default for any outdoor install; allows slight flex in wind.
  • Double telescoping — recommended for 26″ and larger mirrors in normal wind.
  • Triple telescoping — the heavy-duty option for high-wind locations, coastal installs, or 36″+ mirrors.
Shipping & returns+

  • 30-day no-hassle returns on stock SKUs.
  • Volume orders (10+ units): free freight estimate within 1 business day.

FAQ+

What’s the difference between Z and telescoping brackets? Z-brackets are rigid and fine for small indoor mirrors. Telescoping brackets have an adjustable arm that gives the mirror play in wind — mandatory for outdoor use and strongly recommended for 18″+.

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.

FAQ

Why are convex mirrors recommended for driveways, alleys, and parking garage exits?

These areas often have blocked sight lines caused by walls, fences, vehicles, landscaping, or tight turns. A convex mirror gives drivers a wider view of cross traffic and pedestrians before they pull out, turn, or back up.

How do I work out what size traffic mirror I need for a blind bend?

Start with viewing distance and vehicle speed. The 1 inch of mirror diameter per 1.5 feet of viewing distance rule is a useful baseline, then size upward for faster approaches, long sight distances, or complex junctions.

What is a traffic safety mirror?

A traffic safety mirror is a convex mirror used to improve visibility at roadways, driveways, blind bends, parking lot exits, and vehicle intersections. It helps drivers see cross traffic and pedestrians where direct line of sight is limited.

What is a convex mirror and how does it work for safety?

A convex mirror curves outward to expand the field of view. It helps people see around corners, vehicles, walls, racks, and other obstacles. Convex mirrors are commonly used at driveways, alleys, loading docks, parking garages, warehouses, and blind intersections.
