Custom Mirrors in Pittsburgh: Getting the Bathroom Ready Before the Holiday Guests Arrive

Custom Mirrors for Fox Chapel and Shaler Homes

Every November, somewhere in Fox Chapel or Shaler, a host stands in the powder room with the guest list in one hand and finally looks at the mirror. Really looks at it. A builder grade rectangle that never quite fit the vanity, with cloudy edges. That chip in the corner nobody has mentioned, which is not the same thing as nobody noticing. The powder room is the one room every guest walks into alone, and the mirror is the first thing they see, so a mirror cut to the actual wall (not the closest stock size) does more for that room than a fresh coat of paint ever will. At Boulevard Glass & Metal, we build custom mirrors in Pittsburgh to the exact measurements of the space. Framed or frameless. Rectangular, round, oval, or something less expected. Cracked, chipped, and aging mirrors get replaced with new glass built to fit.

Pairing a Vanity Mirror With a Frameless Shower Door

If the upstairs bathroom is on the list too, it is worth planning the mirror and the shower glass together. A frameless enclosure reads clean and open. Hang a heavy framed mirror over the vanity and the two end up arguing with each other. A beveled or polished edge frameless mirror carries the same lines across the room, and a float or infinity frame gets you a modern finish without the bulk. Bronze or gray tinted mirror glass is there for rooms that run a little cold. Because the glass is fabricated for that specific wall, it can be cut to clear the outlets and the light over the vanity, so nothing has to move to make the mirror work. That is the sort of detail we work out at our Glenshaw shop when we measure for custom vanity mirrors and frameless showers.

Matching Mirror Hardware and Finishes to the Rest of the Bathroom

Small metal pieces decide whether a bathroom looks finished. Put a matte black faucet next to chrome shower hinges and the whole room feels like it came out of two different catalogs. Not ideal. Hardware for showers, mirrors, and glass doors comes in brushed nickel, chrome, matte black, oil rubbed bronze, polished brass, and stainless steel, so handles, hinges, towel bars, and robe hooks can all match what is already on the wall. Our Boulevard custom mirror and glass hardware team has that conversation with homeowners across the North Hills. Easier to settle before the install than after.

Request a Custom Mirror Quote Before the Holidays

Most custom mirrors are completed and installed within two to three weeks, though bigger or more complex pieces can take longer. Thanksgiving is November 26 this year. Start in the first days of November and a mirror is on pace for the holiday; wait until the third week and it will likely arrive after Thanksgiving. Our custom mirror installers serving Fox Chapel, Shaler, and Greater Pittsburgh work out of 1606 Butler Plank Rd in Glenshaw. Quotes are free. Request one online or call (412) 903-3039, and get the measurement on the calendar while there is still room before the guests show up.
