Muscles For Mirrors

Bohle’s pioneering new self-adhesive mirror plates are the first in the world to be certified to the DIN 2304 manufacturing process.

This gives greater confidence to installers of mirrors in public spaces, and gives customers the assurance that installed mirrors have met all safety requirements.

“Mirrors have become extremely popular in recent years, as they increase light and open up internal spaces,” Bohle’s MD Dave Broxton said. “And thanks to a multitude of different finishes, mirrors can help reflect the character of a building, or of an occupant.

“While mirrors can be installed anywhere, they can often be found in the bathroom, and the higher levels of moisture can affect the mirror fixing adhesive. This can cause a headache for building managers as it also increases the safety risk – especially with heavier products.”

As a recognised European glass expert, Bohle has been certified as a specialist bonding company, in accordance with the internationally recognised German standard DIN 2304.

This sets their products and services apart from other suppliers, because the standard allows them to be specified and used on projects where non-conforming products can’t.

Mirror plates are used when mirrors need to be removable and no brackets need to be visible. This is often a key requirement for bathrooms, but also hotels, care homes and restaurants.

The self-adhesive mirror plates from Bohle AG are available individually or in safefix, safemax and safeclix mirror fastening sets. Depending on the set, the sheets are supplemented with additional adhesive sheets with magnets, spacers, press studs and screws.

No special tools are required for mounting, and the height of the mirror can be adjusted once in position. Magnets are provided which prevent unintentional movement after installation.

“Some customers already choose Bohle as a supplier of mirror plates because they can be assured that the product will remain secure,” Dave said. “But with safefix, safemax and safeclix, we are opening up a profitable market to new installers.

“Thanks to easy assembly and installation, and the need for no specialist tools, installers who would be installing other bathroom hardware, including showers, can now confidently add mirrors to their range of products.

“And because the mirror can be hung up after just 30 minutes of resting time, it won’t eat into your time on site, creating a significant profitable diversification opportunity.”
