Care Range Mirrors for Seated and Standing Use

Arch and rectangular mirrors sized and positioned for accessible bathrooms, so both wheelchair and standing users get a clear reflection.

Why choose Care Range mirrors from Lamex

  • Taller arch profiles give a clear reflection whether the user is seated or standing
  • Sized and labelled against AS1428.1 accessible design guidance for care and public bathrooms
  • Stainless steel angle frames resist knocks better than a frameless edge in high-traffic areas
  • Satin and matte black frame finishes to match grab rails and other care accessories
  • Polished stainless steel option available where shatter-resistance is a priority
  • Multiple widths in stock to suit both single-basin and shared vanity layouts

How to choose the right care mirror

Start with the mounting height and the mix of users in the space. A mirror intended for both seated and standing use generally needs to be taller and mounted lower than a standard vanity mirror, so the reflection covers a wider range of eye heights. The arch-top mirrors on this page are shaped and sized with this dual-height use in mind, but always confirm the exact mounting position against your project's accessibility requirements before installation, since compliance depends on how the mirror is fitted, not the product alone.

Next, weigh up glass versus stainless steel. A glass mirror gives the truest, clearest reflection and suits the great majority of aged-care and accessible bathrooms. Polished stainless steel is worth considering in facilities where impact risk is higher — for example rooms used by residents who may bump or lean on fittings — since it won't shatter the way glass can. Match the frame finish to your grab rails and towel rails for a coordinated look.

Frequently asked questions

Why are care mirrors taller than standard bathroom mirrors?
Care mirrors are sized and positioned to give a clear reflection to both a seated wheelchair user and a standing user, which usually means a taller mirror mounted lower than a standard vanity mirror.
What does AS1428.1 accessible mirror compliance mean?
It refers to sizing and mounting a mirror so it suits both seated and standing users as set out in Australia's accessible design standard. Always confirm exact mounting height on site, since compliance depends on installation as well as the mirror itself.
Should I choose a glass mirror or a stainless steel mirror for a care bathroom?
Glass mirrors give the clearest reflection and are the usual choice for most care and aged-care bathrooms. Polished stainless steel mirrors are sometimes preferred in facilities with a higher risk of impact, since they don't shatter.
