A custom mirror can do more than just reflect an image—it can transform a space by enhancing natural light, creating the illusion of more room, and adding a touch of elegance. For the entryway of your home, your office, gym, or retail store, having a mirror designed to fit a specific area and style makes all the difference.

At Michael’s Glass Co., we specialize in crafting high-quality custom-made mirrors, guiding customers from the initial concept to the final installation. While the timeline can vary based on size, complexity, and special design features, most projects follow a similar process.

Step 1: Consultation and Measurements

Every project starts with a consultation. This is where our team discusses your needs, preferences, and overall vision for the mirror. If you’re replacing an existing mirror, we’ll assess the area to determine if any additional work is needed before installation.

The measurement process is crucial for achieving a perfect fit. Whether the mirror is for a bathroom vanity, a statement wall, or a unique decorative piece, our specialists take precise measurements to avoid any installation challenges when the time comes.

Typically, the consultation and measurement phase takes anywhere from a day to a few days, depending on scheduling availability. If you already have a specific design in mind, things may move faster.

Step 2: Custom Fabrication

Once we’ve taken measurements and finalized the design, it’s time to bring your mirror to life. Unlike standard, off-the-shelf options, a custom mirror is made just for your space, so every detail is crafted with precision.

At this stage, our experienced craftsmen carefully cut and shape the glass to match your vision. If you’re looking for special touches like beveled edges, decorative finishes, or tinted glass, we take the extra time to get everything just right. More intricate designs or unique shapes may take a little longer, as we focus on making sure every cut and detail is flawless.

On average, this part of the process takes anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the complexity of your mirror and the materials used. Our goal is to create something truly special—without rushing the craftsmanship that makes it stand out.

Step 3: Scheduling and Installation

Once the mirror is fabricated, we coordinate with you to schedule the installation. Smaller projects, such as standard-sized vanity mirrors, typically take less time to install. Larger installations, such as full-wall mirrors or custom pieces requiring extra support, may take longer.

The installation process itself is usually completed within a few hours. Our team carefully transports the mirror, secures it in place, and makes any necessary adjustments to ensure stability and safety. If an old mirror needs to be removed, this can add time, especially if special care is required to prevent damage to the surrounding area.

Mirror Replacement Services

For those searching for a mirror replacement service near you, the timeline can vary. If the replacement requires custom fabrication, it follows the same steps as a new mirror. However, if a standard replacement is available in our inventory, installation can often be scheduled much sooner.
