FAQ

  • How fast can I get the mirror?
    If you live in the United States, we can ship sizes 24"x36" or less via FedEx Overnight. Your shipping options appear after you add items to your shopping cart and check out. International deliveries are shipped via USPS Global Express Mail and arrive in about one week. We can also ship internationally using FedEx, DHL, or UPS if you need it faster.

    Sizes larger than 24"x36" are shipped in a glass crate and the delivery time is 1-4 days, depending on your proximity to Toledo, OH.
  • Which is better, glass or acrylic?
    Acrylic is easier to cut to fit your project, and you can drill holes in it. The coating on the glass is a higher quality. Acrylic is much safer than glass, if you are concerned about liability.
  • What's the largest size you can cut?
    The largest sheets of glass we stock are in 1/4" thickness, and are 63"x74". Manufacturing larger sizes is no problem, but there is a 2-3 week lead time.
  • What's the smallest size you can cut?
    1.1mm thickness: 0.325"x0.325"
    1.9mm thickness: 0.5"x0.5"
    1/8" thickness: 0.75"x0.75"
    1/4" thickness: 3.5"x3.5"

  • Is it possible that the mirror will break in the mail?
     It's rare for our acrylic mirrors to break in the mail. They are packaged with a custom boxes and strong, flexible packaging materials to ensure that they are well-protected. Large mirrors are insured against breakage. Glass mirrors break fairly often, but they are fully insured. If your glass mirror arrives broken, we will ship you another one at no cost to you.
  • Do you offer combined shipping discounts?
         Yes, they are automatically computed when you use our online shopping cart.
  • Is there any difference in quality between 1/8" and 1/4" glass?
     In large sizes such as 24"x24", the 1/4" is slightly flatter, but in smaller sizes there is no difference.
  • What is the best tool to use to cut the glass mirrors?
    You can cut the glass using the standard score-and-break method. We recommend you have someone with experience do this, because it's very easy to make mistakes.
  • What is the appropriate way to handle glass mirrors?
     Avoid getting fingerprints on the mirrored surface. Clean dust using compressed air. Oil marks such as fingerprints can be cleaned using 50% alcohol solution (lens cleaner) and non-abrasive wipes (Bounty paper towels).
