View Full Version : Removing a large mirror

03-20-00, 05:33 PM
I have a large mirror (7 ft x 4 ft) mounted on the wall. I would like to remove it but am afraid that it was glued on. Would that be true for a mounted mirror of this size? Is there an easy way to remove this or should I call a professional? Who would do this type of work?

Thanks in advance,
Armella

Leave it to a professional. Look in your Yellow Pages under Mirror or Glass.

Hi Armella, yes definatly leave it to the professionals, people do forget that mirror is still glass and the bigger it is the more dangerous it gets and one that size is normally glued on or have fixing screws in the corners but it will be heavy and if it breaks will be very dangerous ok, I hope this helps a little, Handyman
