Decorative self-adhesive mirror film is gaining popularity due to the fact that it is excellent material to decorate the room and protect the surface from negative influences. The material is completely safe for humans, therefore it is used in various fields.

Where is mirror film used

Film with mirror surface can be easily glued to metal, wood or glass. Mirror film safety mirror can be used as finishing material for walls. Such a canvas is not afraid of moisture and it is wear-resistant. Therefore, the material is perfect for decorating hallways, kitchens or bathrooms. The width of the film is 1 m, which allows you to paste over surfaces with a minimum number of seams.

Decorative self-adhesive mirror film safety mirror is often used for pasting ceilings. Naturally, any surface must be prepared before applying such a material: all irregularities are smoothed out and the surface is treated with a primer. After completion of work with the film on the surface, all wall defects will be clearly visible. It is worth working with a mirror canvas carefully, all joints should be invisible.

Mirror film can also be used to update furniture. Glue the material on the facades of cabinets or chests of drawers to protect the surface from mechanical damage, aggressive washing liquids and ultraviolet rays. To apply such a film to the surface, you do not need to be a professional. Canvas is easy to work with.

Mirror film for glasses has several functions at once: aesthetic and protective function. When such material is applied to glass surface, you strengthen the glass.

It is worth noting that the mirror film is not able to replace the traditional mirror. Even working surface very smooth, then when gluing the canvas, small dents form. Because of them, the reflected image may be distorted. The main task of the mirror self-adhesive film to create a mirror effect.

If you decide to buy a mirror film in Yekaterinburg, then check out the assortment of our store. On the site you will find a wide range decorative films different in width, pattern and micron.

Mirror panels are solid sheets of glass, on one side of which a metallized amalgam is applied. The size of one panel can be different, most often it varies from 3 to 5 sq.m. Mirrors bigger size it is not advisable to purchase, since they can easily break, and they can not be delivered to every room.

Rice. 1. Mirror panels are often the focus of attention for designers.

According to their purpose, mirror panels are a facing material. Implemented in practice used primarily in decorative purposes, although it is also worth noting their operational and installation advantages:

To get an original effect, you can stick several mirror panels on top of each other. It is especially beautiful if you use canvases at the same time. different shapes. The edge can be left straight or cut in the form of a facet. The unusual structure of such a composition will be further emphasized by side lighting or the use of mirrors of different shades.

Types of mirrors for panels

Base material

Glass is the basis of most mirror panels. This material is not afraid of moisture, resistant to chemical and mechanical influences does not change with temperature changes. Sheet thickness usually 4 mm, but for panels big size it is better to use glass with a thickness of at least 6 mm. It is recommended to apply amalgam to tempered glass to improve strength, however, under some types of lighting, tempered glass evenly distributed spots appear.

The main disadvantage of glass-based mirror panels is their heavy weight. Acrylic-based mirrors or mirror polystyrene can be an alternative. Acrylic mirrors reduce the weight of the structure by about three times, whileAcrylic is much more impact resistant than glass.. Also, acrylic is much easier to process (cutting, grinding, drilling), so it is often used to implement non-standard design ideas.

Rice. 2. Mirror panel option

Mirror polystyrenerepresents thin film made of polyester with gold or silver amalgam. Allows you to give the surface rather than a mirror, but metallic look and is more often used in the design of shop windows, office signs and signs, information boards and advertising media. Main disadvantages - working temperature limited to 70 degrees, and with inaccurate use, amalgam can peel off from the base; scratches easily.

Shape, size and color

The shape of the mirror panels is dictated by the interior. Usually these are the same quadrilaterals of the required shape (square, rectangular, long stripes, etc.). With an increase in the area of ​​​​the panel, the surface tension increases, therefore it is recommended to cut a large canvas into several smaller fragments. Also,the larger the surface area, the smoother the wall should beon which the mirror is mounted.

It is worth noting that the seams between individual panels are less conspicuous if the panels themselves are small.

The color of the mirror depends on the amalgam. For silver shades, aluminum, titanium and silver plating is used. Silver is more expensive, but it is the most resistant to moisture, so it is used in bathrooms and rooms where you want to create a noble atmosphere. Bronze plating gives a warm golden hue.

To create original project, mass-colored glass can be used as a base. Designers also use smooth color transitions of spraying and reducing its intensity up to complete transparency. Another interesting option- artificially aged mirrors, cut through with curly veins, which form a bizarre image or pattern.

Our company manufactures and installs a wide variety of glass products using modern technologies and high-quality raw materials. More information can be obtained by clicking on the menu links:

Decorative design of mirror panels

Mirrors go well with other building materials, shading them and ennobling the interior. Original effects can be achieved by placing a picture, flowerpot or other object in front of the mirror. The arrangement of objects can be so coherent and thoughtful that the effect will change depending on the point of view.

Also used in interior design different techniques decorating the mirrors themselves:

They also look very niceilluminated mirrors. Even a small lamp saturates the room with light reflected from the mirror. If you use edge lighting on a mirror decorated with sandblasting in one of his techniques, there will be a complete illusion that the pattern glows from the inside.

Installation of mirror panels

The mounting method depends on the material of the mirror panel, as well as on its weight and dimensions. It is better to insert a heavy canvas into a profile, or drill holes in it to fix it on fasteners with dowels. Small fragments can be inserted into stucco or molding. Also, light mirror panels can be fixed with silicone glue or cement.

cost of mirror panels

In our studio you can count on acceptable and their installation. The cost of performing work in each case is formed individually, based on the following factors:

• quality of materials and fittings (type of glass, amalgam, fasteners used, etc.);
• manufacturing complexity (the need to drill holes, curly trimming, grinding, etc.);
• usage artistic decoration;
• urgency of production;
• installation difficulties.

Mirror panels from our studio

Designers of our studio will help you transform and decorate the interior of your home, office or any other room.

Applying a reflective film to polymer base brought into the range design solutions mirror wallpaper for walls in residential premises of large and small areas.

The simplification of the mounting technology and the weight of the structure, unlike traditional framed mirrors, allows you to organically include both individual fragments and solid planes in the interior. mirror effect(ceiling, panels, niches).

Purpose and properties

Covering the wall with a mirror serves not so much as a decoration, but as an effective technique for changing the perception of space and the geometry of the entire room.

The reflective surface solves the following tasks:

• changing the nature of the illumination of the room, which allows to reduce the number and intensity of light sources, depriving the shadows of contrasting borders;
• creating the impression of expanding borders, increasing air volume and freedom of movement;
• a promising increase in the area and shape of the room, the destruction of the effect of a closed box of walls;
• masking the usual details of the situation (built-in wardrobes, curved walls, blocked window or door openings).

In the same time Wall panels show sufficient flexibility on curved planes and retain some practical utility ordinary mirror in any room.

How it's made

Unlike classic massive glass on the wall, they allow you to create an original composition with less effort and maximum safety in operation. Coatings are also made on a glass base, but they are heavier and more difficult to adjust in size if necessary.

The panel is a base on which an amalgam is applied on one side, and an adhesive layer on the other. On some models, a decorative pattern is made.

In addition to the usual white color metallized coating can be performed in warm or cold shades of different saturation:

The polymer base has a number of advantages:

• flexibility allows you to perform rounded (conjugated) planes, columns, cascade and wave transitions;
• strength retains its shape and resists shock, random dynamic impacts;
• maintains chemical resistance appearance long time and easy care conventional detergents;
• the availability of processing to any desired shape and size expands the scope of use in any place of installation;
• compatibility with other materials (including the method of installation) gives scope for experimental combination;
• the finished front part does not need additional finishing after installation is completed.

Mirrored plastic panels are produced not only in the form of plates, but also as roll material for wall decoration, which allows you to cover with one sheet large areas(up to 5 m²).

Base material

long-term storage operational qualities depends on the characteristics of the base plate.

Currently, mirror panels for walls have a base of 3 types of material:

The ability to bend the panel can backfire if you mount it on an unprepared bumpy base, unprofessionally fit the joints. Working with mirrors requires certain skills and calculation.

Mounting types

Mirror panels are produced on a self-adhesive basis and the usual one for adhesive composition. The range includes products of various shapes and thicknesses.

Various modern technologies decorating the front reflective sides of the panel.

These include:

• facet (grinding the edges of the mirror at a given angle);
• sandblasting glass;
• painting;
• rhinestones;
• photo printing;
• stacked stained glass windows.

Install tiles on large area in the form of a certain pattern, which also gives the originality of the performance:

handle plastic material much easier than glass mirrors. Polymers are well cut, drilled, fastened by heating building hair dryer, stick together special adhesives. The composition for gluing is taken on the basis of polyvinyl acetate. If necessary, mechanical fastening with staples or screws is used.

For finishing ceilings, a mirror film based on polyvinyl chloride is produced. It is pulled on a special frame, getting a perfectly even, beautifully looking reflective plane.

Glass panels are manufactured in various forms: both geometric, for example, tiles, and the form of various zigzag elements.

A perfect stop piece from a mirror finish can only be obtained after careful calculation based on the “cut once” principle. For more details see this video:
