Mirrors offer both form and function in a room. Not only are they ideal for making sure your appearance looks great before you head out the door, but they can also add depth, light, and interest to a room.
A wide variety of shapes and sizes of mirrors can be incorporated into the decor as per your needs. In some cases, a mirror can become the focal point of a room if the right mirror is selected and hung in the ideal spot.
There are now a wide variety of DIY options regarding hanging mirrors. It seems easier to hang a mirror on your wall from mirror kits, anchors, hooks and wires, and command strips. However, due to the size and weight of some mirrors, it takes some experience to know the best way to hang them so they stay fixed to the wall.
Hiring a mirror hanger through the Ezy Peazy platform can help. A professional handyman can safely and securely hang your mirror on your walls, whether round, rectangular, elliptical, or octagonal.
While you can usually hang a small, light mirror using 3M strips, securing a heavy mirror requires specialist equipment and skill. Because of their weight, you ideally want to secure them using the studs in the wall behind the plasterboard. This will provide a better anchor point and ensure that any fastenings don't get pulled out.
It's essential to ensure that the screws and hooks are the correct sizes to hold the mirror's weight and that you're using enough of them. A heavy mirror will require more than one fastening and may need to be secured to the wall at multiple points.
Another popular place to hang mirrors is on doors, which requires care, as you want to avoid hanging a mirror that's too heavy for the door. It's also essential to ensure the mirror is firmly secured, so it doesn't fall if the door is opened or closed quickly.
With these many factors to consider when hanging a mirror, it's advisable to find a professional mirror hanger through the Ezy Peazy platform to help you. They'll arrive with the right equipment, like stud finders and drills, to make sure your heavy mirror is securely anchored to your wall or door and won't damage the surface they're attached to.
While many mirrors come with a frame, making it easier to hang them on the wall, frameless mirrors are also popular. This can pose a mirror hanging challenge, as they are designed to sit flush with the wall, so you can't use screws or hooks to attach them to your wall.
This leaves you with several options: special mounting clips or a strong adhesive. Your choice will depend on the surface you're attaching the mirror to and how long you're expecting the mirror to stay in that position. For example, if your mirror is likely to remain in a spot for the long term, you can safely use adhesive. If you expect to move the mirror in the next year or so, mounting clips could be a better option – but be sure to secure them to the wall studs.
If you need help determining which frameless mirror hanging option is best, you can hire a mirror hanging specialist through Ezy Peazy. They can advise which solution best suits the mirror, the surface you're hanging it on, and how long you want it to stay up. Once confirmed, they can then do the installation for you.
The bathroom is one of the most common areas in the home for a mirror. Every bathroom is likely to have at least one – often one attached to the outside of your medicine cabinet, as well as a large one positioned above your vanity.
There are a few extra factors to consider when hanging a mirror in the bathroom, and the first is the surface you're hanging it on. Many bathrooms will have tiled walls rather than plasterboard, which may determine how the mirror can be hung. And, of course, there's the moisture in a bathroom to consider, as you'll want to choose mirror fastenings that won't be damaged or weakened by the water in the bathroom environment.
A professional mirror hanger you can find through Ezy Peazy will consider all these factors when installing your bathroom mirror. They can recommend the best placement for the mirror and how to fix it securely to your wall to ensure its longevity.
While a traditional Kiwi way to hang a picture or mirror was to bang a nail into the wall and call it a day, now there are many non-nail options for hanging a mirror on your wall.
The benefit of these alternatives is that they provide a sturdier and longer-lasting way to hang your mirror while avoiding the damage that nails can do to a wall. For some of them, you won't need to find a stud as the anchor has been designed to hook into the drywall, so it's not easily pulled out. Heavy-duty anchors are sometimes a better option for hanging heavy mirrors too.
Alternative options for nails include:
The wall type and the mirror's weight will determine which of these options is the best choice. You can consult a mirror-hanging professional through Ezy Peazy to determine which option would be best, and you can get them to complete the installation for you quickly and efficiently.
As well as nail-less options for hanging your mirror, there are other ways to hang a mirror without drilling any holes. These are particularly good if you live in a rental property or want to avoid filling any holes if you decide to change the placement of your mirror down the track.
You can often find these options in the DIY aisle of Bunnings or Mitre 10 in command hooks, strips, or glues. These can be a great option, as they're easy to install and re-do if you get it wrong. Nevertheless, it can be wise to bring in a professional to provide some advice, guidance, and help with your mirror installation – mainly if your mirror is heavy. That's because some of the solutions on the market may not be suitable for heavier mirrors.
A good option is to hire a professional mirror hanger through Ezy Peazy. They can advise the best non-nail and non-hole options for securely hanging your mirror and fixing it to the wall without damaging it.
Gyms are another location that relies on mirrors. Large, floor-to-ceiling mirrors allow gym-goers the opportunity to check their form and help make the gym floor appear more prominent and lighter.
If you want to install mirrors in your home gym, you want to be able to see yourself in the mirror from where you're working out. So, gym mirrors need to be bigger than standard mirrors to give you an unobstructed view of your form. Depending on the size of your gym, you may even need more than one or have mirrors custom-built to fit the space.
To kit out your gym with mirrors, consider talking to a mirror hanging specialist you can find through the Ezy Peazy platform. They can measure the space, decide the best placement, determine how many mirrors you'll need, and take care of the installation.
