Beveled Mirror Medicine Cabinet

To measure for a new beveled mirror medicine cabinet, first remove everything possible from your bathroom. You don’t want bulky bathroom accessories getting in the way of accurate measurements! Once you’ve done that, get out your measuring tape and measure the width of the vanity. It’s a good idea to measure between any permanent wall features, such as sconces or electrical outlets, as well.

Once you have an idea of the width of your working area, subtract a few inches - between one to three inches on either side. You want your medicine cabinet to be a few inches smaller than the width of your vanity, or for it to slot neatly between any sconces that may be present.

Having a beveled mirror medicine cabinet is a timeless addition to any bathroom. Beveled mirrors on these cabinets add dimension and a classy touch when compared to plain-looking or ordinary mirrors. But there are some great advantages to choosing furniture with beveled mirrors.

Firstly, they are a safer option than regular mirrors since the sides are polished and the process that is used to create the slant further polishes the corners of the mirrors. They are also likely to become a stunning antique over time especially since they are hand cut with pumices.

These mirrored cabinets are more aesthetically appealing to the eyes and become the centerpiece of any room and the bonus is that if your bathroom is on the small side, your beveled mirror medicine cabinet will create the illusion of more space. So you will create a stylish and functional bathroom without additional furniture or decor.

The first thing you’ll need to do is choose the spot where you’d like to hang your beveled mirror medicine cabinet. Keep in mind that the mirror should be around eye level and a couple of inches above the sink.

Then, gather your tools, such as a hammer, stud finder, screwdriver, and nails. Some beveled mirror medicine cabinets may require specific tools and hardware, so be sure to read the product’s instructions before you begin the installation.

Locate the wall studs where the medicine cabinet will be mounted with the help of your stud finder. Next, mark the studs using a marker and line up the cabinet’s holes with the studs. You may want to use a level to make sure the mirrored cabinet is even. Once it’s straight, go ahead and mark the holes on the wall. You can then drill the holes, set the medicine cabinet in place, and secure it with screws.
