Round Convex Mirrors for Indoor Blind Spots
Round convex interior mirrors help people see approaching movement around internal corners, doorways, corridor junctions and warehouse aisles.
The curved mirror face provides a wider field of view than a conventional flat mirror. Correct positioning can improve awareness where walls, shelving, doors or building layouts restrict the direct line of sight.
Select the required mirror diameter using the product options above. The most suitable size depends on the viewing distance, width of the area, number of approach directions and available mounting position.
Interior Convex Mirror Applications
Interior convex mirrors are suitable for locations where the normal line of sight is interrupted by the building layout, equipment or storage systems.
| Location | Visibility requirement |
|---|---|
| Corridor junctions | Help users see people approaching from an adjoining corridor |
| Internal doorways | Improve awareness where an opening or door restricts the direct view |
| Warehouse aisles | Provide a wider view around shelving, storage equipment and aisle intersections |
| Retail stock rooms | Improve visibility around storage racks and restricted internal corners |
| Schools and colleges | Support visibility around busy internal corridors and entrances |
| Offices and public buildings | Improve awareness around reception areas, passages and internal junctions |
| Healthcare buildings | Assist visibility around suitable internal corridors and communal routes |
A convex mirror supports visibility but does not replace an appropriate site risk assessment, traffic-management procedure, physical barrier, warning sign or CCTV system.
Plan the Mirror Position
Assess the proposed viewing point before ordering. The mirror should be positioned so that the relevant approach route is visible from the place where a person needs to make a decision.
| Site check | What to assess |
|---|---|
| Restricted view | Identify the wall, doorway, shelving or equipment creating the blind area |
| Viewer position | Establish where the person will normally be standing or moving when looking into the mirror |
| Approach directions | Record which corridors, aisles or doorways need to appear in the reflection |
| Viewing distance | Measure the approximate distance between the viewer and proposed mirror position |
| Obstructions | Check for signs, doors, lighting, shelving or equipment that could interrupt the reflected view |
| Lighting | Confirm that the reflected area is adequately illuminated without excessive glare |
| Mounting surface | Check that the proposed surface and fixings are suitable for the mirror and its bracket |
| Adjustment access | Allow safe access for initial positioning and future adjustment |
| Environment | Confirm that the location is indoors and suitable for an interior mirror |
Choosing the Correct Mirror
- Identify the blind area: establish exactly which movement or approach route needs to be visible.
- Measure the viewing distance: measure from the likely viewer position to the proposed mirror location.
- Check the coverage required: determine whether the mirror needs to show one approach route or several adjoining routes.
- Select the diameter: compare the available product options and the viewing information in the technical specification.
- Confirm the installation point: ensure that the surface, position and access are suitable.
- Test the sightline: check the proposed position from the normal viewing point before final fixing.
Where the location is complex, provide photographs, approximate measurements and a simple site sketch when requesting advice.

Round Convex Interior Mirror FAQs
What is an interior convex mirror used for?
An interior convex mirror helps improve visibility around internal corners, doorways, corridor junctions, warehouse aisles and other locations where the direct line of sight is restricted.
How do I choose the correct convex mirror diameter?
Consider the viewing distance, width of the area, number of approach routes and proposed mirror position. Compare the diameter options shown in the product selector with the technical documentation supplied on this page.
Where should an interior convex mirror be positioned?
Position it where the required corridor, doorway or aisle can be seen clearly from the normal viewing point. Check the reflected sightline before completing the final installation.
Can this interior convex mirror be installed outdoors?
No. This range is intended for internal use. Select a mirror designed for exposed locations from the exterior convex mirror range .
Does a convex mirror replace CCTV or traffic-management controls?
No. A convex mirror provides an additional view of a restricted area, but it does not replace CCTV, warning signs, barriers, site procedures or an appropriate risk assessment.
What should I check before ordering an interior mirror?
Check the viewing distance, required reflected area, installation environment, mounting position, available surface, possible obstructions and the diameter required.
