i wonder if anyone has words of wisdom about how to mount a large
mirror in the bathroom. In my case the mirror is 2200mm x 600mm and
6mm thick and weighs about 25 kg. It will be vertical (almost from
floor to ceiling). It has 4 holes along each vertical edge for screw
mounting to the wall. The wall is traditional plasterd blockwork
(internal).


Why would anyone want a mirror that size in the bathroom? and more to the
point it'll get steamed up in no time.


Why? To make the room look bigger and so couples can see themselves.
Steaming up could be an issue.


Same conditions as a bedroom ceiling mirror then ;-)


Mirrors over the bed are overrated in my view. If the ceiling is 2
metres above the bed then the people you see in it a 4 metres away .
One on the wall beside the bed is much better, and not quite so
obvious.
