Mirror Wall Mounted Cabinets

Mirrored Wall Mounted Cabinets for Your Bathroom

Installing a mirrored wall mounted cabinet in your bathroom can improve the look of the space as well as provide necessary storage for daily toiletries. A mirrored wall mounted cabinet is also an ideal addition to a mudroom, offering storage for keys and other small items as well as a mirror for checking your appearance as you leave your home. Mirrored wall mounted cabinets come in a number of sizes and styles to fit your space.

Double door or single door

Depending upon the space you have to mount the mirrored wall cabinet, you have the option of a single door cabinet or a double door cabinet. Measuring the space where you wish to mount the cabinet and assuring that you have the proper mounting surface and support studs will help you determine how large of a mirrored wall cabinet will fit.

Benefits of exterior shelves

Many mirrored wall cabinets are designed with the mirrored cabinet in the middle flanked by two sets of open shelves on either side. These shelves are ideal for easy to access items and toiletries or could be used for displaying decorative items. Some mirrored cabinets feature a mirror with two smaller cabinets along the bottom of the mirror. This design works well in small baths or water closets where wall space is at a minimum and adding a mirror for function and design would improve the space.

What kind of cabinet finish works well in a bathroom?

When considering a wall-mounted mirrored cabinet for your bathroom, there are different options for the cabinet finish. Most wood cabinets are finished in paint or with a polyurethane stain. A wood cabinet may show signs of water stress over time due to steam from showers and baths and may require refinishing to maintain the integrity of the wood.

For a sleek look, consider a stainless steel wall-mounted mirrored cabinet. Be aware that stainless steel shows fingerprints and smudges easily and may need to be wiped down on a regular basis to keep the finish smooth and glossy.

Using wall-mounted mirror cabinets elsewhere in your home

The design of a wall-mounted mirror cabinet lends itself to more than just one room in your home. At an entry point to your home, such as a kitchen door or mudroom, a wall-mounted mirror cabinet can serve as storage for keys, phones and chargers, and even as a mail receptacle.
