Custom mirrors and glass partitions are two of the easiest ways to make a NYC apartment or home feel bigger and brighter without a full renovation. Whether you’re upgrading a bathroom vanity or dividing an open floor plan without closing it off, glass is doing a lot of the work. Here’s what homeowners should know about both.
Custom Bathroom & Vanity Mirrors
A mirror cut to fit your exact vanity width, wall-to-wall, looks far more finished than a standard framed mirror centered over the sink. We fabricate mirrors to your measurements, including cutouts for sconces or medicine cabinets, and can add LED backlighting for even, shadow-free light at the vanity. Polished or beveled edges and fog-free heated options are also available for bathrooms with a lot of shower steam.
Wall & Statement Mirrors
Beyond the bathroom, a large wall mirror in an entryway, living room, or dining area bounces natural light around a room and makes a small NYC apartment read larger. We cut mirrors to fit an existing wall or alcove exactly, including custom shapes, and install safely with mirror mastic and mechanical clips so it stays securely in place. See our shower enclosure and mirror services for the full range of mirror and glass options we install.
Interior Glass Partitions
Glass partitions let you divide a home office, den, or open floor plan into separate spaces without blocking light the way a drywall wall would. That matters most in NYC apartments, where interior rooms often depend on light borrowed from windows elsewhere in the unit. We install both fixed glass partitions and sliding glass doors, framed or frameless, depending on the opening and how much separation you need.
Choosing Your Privacy Level
Not every partition needs to be fully see-through. Frosted and acid-etched glass let light pass through while obscuring the view, which works well for a home office or powder room. Decorative frosted film patterns are another option if you want privacy with a bit of visual interest rather than a plain frosted panel. We’ll walk through samples so you can see how much privacy each option actually provides before we install. More on framed and frameless options is on our interior glass partitions page.
Measuring & Installation
Because mirrors and partitions are cut to exact dimensions, every project starts with an on-site measurement rather than a stock size. Most single mirrors or vanity mirrors install in under an hour once the glass is fabricated; partitions and sliding doors typically take a half day depending on the opening size and any electrical or hardware work involved.
