Our Image gym mirrors are always a popular choice within any gymnasium in many different locations.  A common concern with many customers  who have incorporated a weights area within their studio, is the risk of broken gym mirrors caused by free weight impact.  A solution which Glass Installations often recommend is the installation of  a protective aluminium checker plate.

Protecting Gym Mirrors

Quite regularly we receive requests to replace broken mirrors in weights rooms.  These mirrors have often been broken due to weights being dropped near to the mirrors and rolling into them.  One way we recommend to  reduce this risk is to incorporate aluminium checker plate into the mirror wall design.  As well as using our Image “6” or  Image “18” mirrors, our installers fit a run of aluminium checker plate sheeting below the wall of mirrors as protection, without compromising on style.  Not only does this remove any health and safety issues but also reduces unnecessary repair costs while maintaining a high quality finish

Gym Mirrors with Safety Backing

Our Image “6” and Image “18” specialist gym mirrors are manufactured using a cross linked Class “A” Safety backing, if the mirror was to break it will not shatter but remain in tact, therefore reducing the risk of accidents.  

Using our Image specialist gym mirrors and together with aluminium checker plate is the perfect combination for any gym set up which incorporates a weights area.
