A well-mounted LED mirror starts with the wall, the product’s mounting points and a clear plan for power. Mark the position around the people who use the basin, then arrange the support and electrical work to suit the actual mirror. A neat installation should feel comfortable to use as well as look balanced above the vanity.
Measure the position before drilling
Use a paper outline or removable tape to test the full dimensions. Check the reflected view at standing height, the taps below, nearby doors and access to the controls. Leave the mounting clearance required by the supplied instructions so the mirror can be fitted and later removed for service.
For a wide vanity, check both users’ positions. For a compact basin, a smaller mirror can leave more useful space around taps and adjacent fittings. There is no single mounting height that suits every room.
Understand the wall and mounting arrangement
Identify whether the fixing points meet masonry, timber framing, plasterboard or another construction. The appropriate fixing depends on that structure, the mirror’s real weight and the manufacturer’s bracket arrangement. A heavy panel should not be treated like a small picture frame.
Check for concealed pipes and cables before any drilling. Where support is uncertain, have a competent installer assess it. Use the specified mounting points rather than adding adhesive, drilling the mirror frame or substituting a different hanging arrangement.
Choose the mirror around the available space
40 × 50 cm compact LED mirror — £89. A useful starting point for a smaller basin wall, with integrated lighting and anti-fog.
60 cm round double-light mirror — £128. A softer outline with front illumination and a background glow. Check the actual fixing positions rather than assuming a circular mirror hangs from its centre.
60 × 80 cm dual-light mirror — £129. A taller rectangular reflection with adjustable lighting. Plan the chosen orientation against the model’s mounting instructions.

Agree the electrical arrangement first
A hardwired mirror should be connected by a qualified electrician. A socket supply must also suit the product and bathroom location; do not assume an existing shaver socket is suitable. Electrical Safety First’s bathroom guidance explains the importance of location and protective arrangements.
Before the mirror covers the wall, agree the cable route and how the wall switch will work with the mirror’s controls. Our electrical planning guide helps organise the questions for the installer.
Protect the glass during fitting
Keep the mirror supported on a clean, padded surface while preparing the wall. Arrange enough help for its size and weight, avoid pressure on the edges and follow the supplied lifting and mounting instructions. Check the glass and delivered parts before installation, while they are easy to inspect.
The installer should confirm that the mirror is properly engaged with its supports. Once the electrical work is complete, try the normal lighting, dimming and demister controls together and keep the instructions for future use.
Finish with an easy everyday setup
Position toiletries so they do not obstruct the controls, and keep ventilation around the unit clear. Wipe splashes from the glass and edges with a soft cloth. Our installation overview and mirror hanging guide cover further preparation.
