Mirrors: Find the Right Size, Style and Features

Shop mirrors at Aosom UK, including full length mirrors, wall mirrors, LED bathroom mirrors, dressing table mirrors and jewellery cabinets from HOMCOM and Kleankin. Whether you need a mirror for checking outfits, applying makeup or adding bathroom storage, compare the dimensions, mounting options and practical features before buying.

Full Length Mirrors: Height, Width and Mounting Options

Our full length mirrors include rectangular, arched and wavy designs, with selected models measuring approximately 150-165cm tall. Options include floor-standing mirrors with support legs, wall-mounted mirrors and designs that can be used in more than one position.

• Mirror height: A 150-160cm mirror can provide a head-to-toe reflection for many users, depending on its placement and viewing distance. Check the actual reflective glass dimensions, not just the overall frame height.
• Mirror width: Narrow 37-40cm designs take up less space, while 50-60cm mirrors offer a wider view of clothing and outfits.
• Mounting: Wall-mounted mirrors save floor space. Models with folding support legs offer more flexibility, but check whether the product is designed for freestanding, leaning or wall-mounted use.
• Safety features: Selected HOMCOM full body mirrors include tempered glass or a protective backing film. Check the exact glass specification and any required anti-tip fixings.

Wall Mirrors: Round, Arched or Rectangular?

Choose from wall mirrors in round, rectangular, arched and decorative window-style designs. HOMCOM options include black and gold metal frames, mirrors with storage shelves, wall mirrors with hooks and multi-piece mirror sets.

• Round wall mirrors: A practical option above console tables, dressers or hallway furniture. Check the diameter against the available wall width.
• Arched mirrors: Suitable for creating a taller visual feature in hallways, bedrooms and living rooms. Selected designs include black metal window-style frames.
• Rectangular mirrors: Work well above wider furniture or in narrow wall spaces, depending on their orientation.
• Mirrors with shelves or hooks: Useful in entrance halls for storing small items or hanging lightweight accessories. Check the shelf depth and stated weight limits.

Before mounting a large wall mirror, check its total weight, hanging points, permitted orientation and compatible wall fixings. Some multi-piece designs require separate positioning and measurements for each section.

Bathroom Mirrors: LED Lighting, Anti-Fog and Storage

Our bathroom mirrors include illuminated wall mirrors, anti-fog designs and mirror cabinets with internal storage. Available sizes include 50 x 70cm and 60 x 80cm, with rectangular and other styles available.

• LED bathroom mirrors: Selected HOMCOM models offer adjustable brightness and three light colours, such as warm white, neutral white and cool white. Check the lighting controls and colour temperature options.
• Anti-fog mirrors: A built-in demister pad helps reduce condensation on the heated area of the glass after a shower. The heated area may be smaller than the overall mirror.
• IP44 rating: Selected illuminated mirrors are rated IP44 for protection against splashing water. Always check the product's suitability for its intended bathroom location and applicable electrical installation requirements.
• Mirror cabinets: Wall-mounted cabinets with mirrored doors combine reflection and storage. Compare cabinet depth, adjustable shelves, door clearance and internal capacity before ordering.
• Electrical connection: Some LED mirrors require hardwiring rather than a standard plug. Check the installation requirements and use a qualified electrician where necessary.

Selected bathroom mirrors also feature Bluetooth speakers, digital clocks or touch controls. These features vary between models and should be checked individually.

Dressing Table Mirrors: LED, Hollywood and Tri-Fold Designs

Our dressing table mirrors include tabletop vanity mirrors, Hollywood-style LED mirrors and folding makeup mirrors designed for everyday grooming.

• Tri-fold makeup mirrors: A central mirror with two hinged side panels provides adjustable viewing angles. Selected HOMCOM models include 16 LED lights and fold for more compact storage.
• Hollywood vanity mirrors: Designs with multiple LED bulbs around the mirror provide additional illumination for makeup application. Check whether brightness or light colour can be adjusted.
• Tabletop or wall-mounted: Freestanding models can be moved around a dressing table, while compatible wall-mounted designs preserve desk space.
• Power supply: Some folding mirrors use AA batteries, while other illuminated models have different power requirements. For example, one HOMCOM 16 LED tri-fold mirror requires three AA batteries, which are not included.

For makeup application, consider the mirror's viewing area, lighting position and colour settings rather than choosing based only on the number of LED bulbs.

Mirror Jewellery Cabinets: Storage Behind a Full-Length Mirror

Our mirror jewellery cabinets combine a dressing mirror with organised storage for earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets and cosmetics. Choose from wall-mounted, floor-standing and rotating designs, including lockable models with internal LED lighting.

• Jewellery capacity: Check the number of earring slots, ring compartments, necklace hooks and shelves. For example, one HOMCOM 360-degree rotating cabinet includes 120 earring slots, 72 ring slots and 24 necklace hooks.
• Storage layout: Long necklace hooks help reduce tangling, while separate compartments keep smaller jewellery organised.
• Lockable doors: Selected cabinets include a key-operated lock for restricting casual access. A lockable jewellery cabinet is not a substitute for a certified security safe.
• Rotating and floor-standing designs: Check the complete footprint, rotation clearance, door opening direction and stability requirements.

For small bedrooms, a wall-mounted jewellery mirror cabinet can preserve floor space. If you prefer a movable unit, check the cabinet's weight, base dimensions and assembly requirements.

Free Standing Mirrors: Stability and Adjustable Angles

Our free standing mirrors include traditional dressing mirrors and selected standing mirror cabinets. Some HOMCOM dressing mirrors feature adjustable viewing angles and supportive floor bases.

Before choosing a floor mirror, check its total depth and base footprint. For example, one 148cm-tall HOMCOM dressing mirror has a 47 x 46cm overall floor footprint and offers two adjustable angle positions. Consider where the mirror will stand, especially in narrow bedrooms and areas used by children or pets.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mirrors

What size full length mirror do I need?

A full length mirror does not have to be as tall as the person using it to show a complete reflection. The required height depends on the mirror's position, viewing distance and angle. For everyday dressing, many customers may find mirrors around 150-160cm tall convenient, while narrower designs work well in smaller bedrooms.

Can I hang a wall mirror on plasterboard?

Yes, some mirrors can be installed on plasterboard using appropriately rated fixings, but suitability depends on the mirror's weight, the wall construction and the manufacturer's instructions. Heavy mirrors may require fixing into structural supports. Never rely on ordinary plasterboard screws without checking their load capacity.

Does an anti-fog bathroom mirror keep the entire glass clear?

Not necessarily. Many anti-fog mirrors use a heated demister pad that covers only part of the mirror. For example, a 70 x 50cm HOMCOM LED bathroom mirror has a specified 20 x 30cm demisting area. Check the demister dimensions if you want to know how much of the glass is heated.

Are all full length mirrors suitable for leaning against a wall?

No. Some full length mirrors are specifically designed for leaning, while others require wall mounting or a support stand. Check the product's approved installation methods and safety instructions. An unsecured leaning mirror can tip or slide, particularly in households with children or pets.

Can a bathroom mirror be hung horizontally or vertically?

Some bathroom mirrors support both orientations, but others have fixed mounting points, electrical connections or lighting layouts. Check the product specifications before purchasing, especially if you intend to install an LED mirror above a wide washbasin.

What is the difference between a full length mirror and a freestanding mirror?

A full length mirror describes a mirror large enough to show most or all of a person's body, while freestanding describes how the mirror is supported. A full length mirror can be wall-mounted or floor-standing. Freestanding mirrors include designs with support legs, solid bases and adjustable frames.
