Full Length Mirrors Buying Guide
Full length mirrors show your reflection from head to toe, making them useful in bedrooms, hallways, walk-in robes and bathrooms. This collection features the Ingrain arch shaped full length mirror at 1500 x 600mm, with an aluminium frame in brushed gold, brushed nickel or matte black. It suits anyone wanting a practical dressing mirror that also works as a design feature.
What size is a full length mirror?
Most full length mirrors are between 1500mm and 1800mm tall and 500mm to 800mm wide. The Ingrain arch mirror is 1500mm tall, 600mm wide and 38mm deep, which is about 59 by 24 inches. That size suits small bedrooms, hallways and robe areas where a wide mirror would crowd the wall.
Can a full length mirror be wall hung or freestanding?
The Ingrain arch mirror can do both. It can be screw-fixed to the wall, or used as a floor standing mirror with the brackets supplied. Wall hanging saves floor space and is the safer choice in homes with young children or pets. A leaning mirror is easy to move but should always be secured so it cannot tip.
How high should a full length mirror hang?
Hang a full length mirror with its base about 100 to 300mm above the floor. That keeps the top at a comfortable height to see your head and shoulders and lets you see your shoes. For a 1500mm mirror, a lower hanging position shows more of your full outfit.
Where should I put a full length mirror?
Good spots include the back of a bedroom or robe door, a hallway wall near the front door, a dressing area or beside a bathroom vanity. Placing a mirror opposite or beside a window bounces natural light around and makes a narrow room feel larger. Check you have enough distance to step back and see your full reflection, ideally at least a metre.
Is an arch mirror a good choice?
An arch shape softens a room with straight walls, doors and furniture, and it adds a gentle architectural feature without heavy ornament. It suits modern, coastal, Mediterranean and Japandi styles. The brushed gold frame gives warmth, brushed nickel stays neutral and matte black gives contrast against pale walls.
Can I use a full length mirror in a bathroom?
Yes. The Ingrain mirror uses 5mm copper-free glass, which resists the corrosion and black edge spotting that bathroom humidity can cause. Keep the room well ventilated and wipe the frame dry if it gets wet. To clean, spray glass cleaner onto a microfibre cloth rather than the mirror itself.
