Sliding Mirror Wall‑Mounted Bathroom Cabinet

Overview

This cabinet combines a full‑length mirror with a sliding door mechanism to provide storage behind a reflective surface. The unit is designed for wall mounting in bathrooms where floor space is limited and a seamless aesthetic is desired. Typical overall dimensions are 800 mm wide, 600 mm high, and 150 mm deep, with a usable interior depth of 120 mm after accounting for the mirror thickness.

Design and Mechanical System

The door slides on low‑friction nylon rollers guided by extruded aluminum tracks mounted to the cabinet frame. Each roller assembly is rated for 20,000 cycles, ensuring smooth operation over a typical service life of 10 years under normal use. A soft‑close damper integrated into the track reduces impact velocity to below 0.2 m/s at closure, minimizing wear on the mirror edge.

The mirror panel is 4 mm thick tempered glass with a silver‑backed reflective coating, providing a distortion‑free view and meeting safety standards for impact resistance. The cabinet body is constructed from 18 mm moisture‑resistant MDF with a PVC edge band to prevent water ingress at seams.

Materials and Finish

Standard finish options include a white matte laminate, a light gray textured laminate, or a natural wood veneer. All finishes are applied using a low‑VOC UV‑cured coating that resists humidity and cleaning agents commonly found in bathrooms. Custom colors can be matched to RAL or NCS specifications upon request.

Technical Specifications

Installation Requirements

Mounting is achieved via four concealed brackets that attach to wall studs or solid backing using M6×40 mm wood screws. The brackets allow vertical adjustment of ±10 mm to compensate for wall unevenness. A level is recommended during installation to ensure the mirror surface remains plumb within 0.5°.

Electrical provisions are not required; however, if integrated lighting is desired, a low‑voltage LED strip can be routed behind the mirror edge and connected to a remote driver located outside the wet zone.

Applications

The sliding mirror cabinet is suited for ensuite bathrooms, powder rooms, and hospitality guest rooms where a combination of storage and full‑length reflection improves functionality without sacrificing visual space. In healthcare facilities, the unit provides a hygienic storage solution for personal items while maintaining a clear line of sight for safety monitoring.

Quality Assurance

Each cabinet undergoes a three‑stage inspection: dimensional verification of the frame (±0.5 mm), functional testing of the slide mechanism (10 cycles at full load), and surface inspection of the mirror for defects such as pinholes or coating delamination. Documentation of inspection results is available upon request.

Customization Options

• Width: 600 mm to 1200 mm in 50 mm increments
• Height: 500 mm to 800 mm in 50 mm increments
• Interior layout: adjustable glass or laminate shelves (spacing 100 mm increments)
• Mirror treatments: anti‑fog coating, beveled edges, or integrated demister pad
• Hardware finishes: brushed nickel, chrome, or matte black slide tracks

Frequently Asked Questions

Can dimensions be customized to fit a specific niche?

Yes, width and height can be adjusted within the ranges listed above. Custom depths are possible but may affect slide mechanism selection and require engineering review.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Please provide the desired overall dimensions, chosen finish, any special mirror treatments, and the intended mounting wall material (e.g., stud framing, concrete).

How is quality inspected before shipment?

Each unit receives a functional slide test, a mirror surface inspection under 500 lux illumination, and a verification of bracket torque to ensure secure mounting.

What packaging methods protect the mirror during transit?

The cabinet is packed in a double‑wall corrugated carton with corner protectors, and the mirror face is covered with a low‑adhesion protective film. Edge foam strips prevent impact damage.
