Blind Spot Driveway Mirrors and Convex Traffic Safety Mirrors are available in a range of sizes and types. Here are a few exampl Convex Safety Mirrors, the perfect Blind Spot Driveway Mirrors Blind Spot Driveway Mirrors and Convex Traffic Safety Mirrors are available in a range of sizes and types. Here are a few examples, but what type would be best for you? As drivers, we all know that at some time, we are going to have to negotiate joining a busy road while leaving a concealed entrance where we simply can’t see what’s coming, or how fast it’s travelling! Convex traffic safety mirrors with high visibility red and white frames (to draw attention to them), are often installed at difficult, busy road junctions, either by the highways authority or local council, but homeowners with difficult driveways, or commercial site owners with concealed entrances, are expected to make there own arrangements. Blind spot driveway mirrors have traditionally been manufactured from glass, or more recently from acrylic plastic. Both glass and acrylic materials are however vulnerable to breakage and are easily smashed by debris or flying stones thrown up by passing vehicles, or by simple, mindless vandalism. The good news is that the new generation of unbreakable driveway mirrors, manufactured from tough polycarbonate type materials, can be bought for little more than a cheap acrylic mirror, so why compromise? What size driveway mirror do you need? This will be determined by the; maximum ’Viewing Distance’ (the distance you will be from the mirror when you are looking into it to see what’s coming down the road). For convex mirrors, here are the maximum suggested viewing distances for each type and size of mirror; For round convex safety mirrors Mirror diameter – Max viewing distance 300mm - 3 metres 400mm - 5 metres 500mm - 7 metres 600mm - 11 metres 800mm - 20 metres 900mm - 25 metres For rectangular convex safety mirrors Mirror size – Max viewing distance; 600 x 400mm - 9 metres 800 x 600mm - 20 metres 1000 x 800mm - 30 metres Whether you’re looking for driveway mirrors, traffic mirrors, green framed ECO mirrors,red framed mirrors, search and inspection mirrors, or any other type of safety or security mirror, you’ll find a great range of sensibly priced mirrors for domestic or commercial use at the Mirror Warehouse.
