B-290 Angle Frame Mirror

Bobrick Stainless Steel Angle-Frame Mirror

Ordering Mirrors

Size - smaller mirrors can ship via UPS, but they won't take larger mirrors.  Those must ship via motor freight adding a large amount to the overall cost.  In general, UPS will take up to 18 x 30 size, but it varies by model number.

Breakage - it is common for mirrors to break during shipping regardless of how they are shipped.

It is critical that you inspect for breakage when mirrors are delivered.

If you sign for a mirror only to discover later it is broken, then you own it.  We cannot file a claim against the shipping company if you signed for it.

It is easy to check for a damaged mirror.  Just hold up the box and shake it a little.  If you hear broken glass, then note the damage on the shipping ticket.  The driver will take it back.  This is the only way we can make the shipping company pay for the damage.

5. Bobrick framed mirrors are manufactured to a tolerance ± 1/8'' (3.2mm).
6. For sufficient space to lift mirror onto wall hanger(s), provide 3-1/4'' (85mm) minimum clearance above center line of mounting screw holes.
7. Provide 1'' (25mm) minimum clearance at bottom of mirror for engaging locking screws and 1'' (25mm) clearance on each side.

MATERIALS: Frame — 18-8 S, type 304, heavy-gauge stainless steel, 3/4" x 3/4" (19 x 19mm) angle with vertical-grain satin finish. Onepiece, roll-formed construction forms continuous integral stiffener on all sides. Bevel design on front of angle holds frame tightly against mirror. Corners of mirror frame are heliarc welded, ground and polish smooth. Galvanized steel back is fastened to frame with concealed screws and equipped with integral horizontal hanging brackets near the top and bottom of the mirror for hanging the mirror and to prevent the mirror from pulling away from the wall. Locking devices secure mirror to concealed wall hanger. In Screw Locking Design, concealed Philips-head locking screws securely fasten mirror to wall hanger.

Designer's Note: Type 304 stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance, compared to 400 Series stainless steel, against environmental moisture, hose-down maintenance and strong cleaning solution. Mirror — No. 1 quality, 1/4" (6mm) select float glass (standard glass): selected for silvering, electrolytically copper-plated by the galvanic process, and guaranteed for 15 years against silver spoilage. All edges protected by plastic filler strips; back is protected by full-size, shock-absorbing, water-resistant, nonabrasive, 3/16" (5mm) thick polyethylene padding. Concealed Wall Hanger — 20-gauge (0.9mm) galvanized steel. Incorporates lower support member, forming rigid rectangle, which engages lower backplate louvers to keep bottom of mirror against wall.

INSTALLATION: Mount wall hanger on wall with screws (furnished by manufacturer) at points indicated by an S. For plaster or dr y wall construction, provide backing to comply with local building codes, then secure wall hanger with screws furnished. When providing a concealed backing, allow backing to cover range of mounting hole locations shown on drawing. For other wall surfaces, provide fiber plugs or expansion shields for use with screws furnished, or provide 1/8" (3mm) toggle bolts or expansion bolts. Hang mirror on wall hanger with all four backplate louvers engaged behind horizontal wall hanger members. To do this, mirror must be centered in front of the wall hanger horizontally, pressed flat against the wall approximately 1" (25mm) above final position and then lowered into final position. Snap Locking Design — Locking devices automatically secure mirror to concealed wall hanger when it is lowered into final position. Locking devices may be unlocked by inserting two flat blade screwdrivers behind each side of mirror near the bottom or under the bottom of the mirror and pulling mirror bottom forward and then up. Screw locking Design — Lock mirror to wall hanger by tightening Phillips-head locking screws that are concealed in the bottom of frame at points indicated by a T. Mirror may be unlocked from wall hanger by loosening locking screws and lifting mirror off of concealed wall hanger.
