Questions & Answers

Is it possible to mount this on a tree with the mounting hardware included?

It would not seem to be a problem to me. As it comes with the bracket, it is slightly angled when fastened, so it doesn't look flat when attached. There are two holes on one end of the bracket, so that it can be mounted to a wall, tree, etc. It is bent slightly out on the other end of the bracket, which means it does not lay flat against whatever is fastened to the end with the two holes. It is at this end of the mirror that you bolt it. (I wish there was a way for me to attach an image, but I have no way to do so. I think you would be fine As a side effect, I have it inside attached to one of my garage door supports. I hope this will be helpful.

generally park my truck in my garage. Would this mirror be useful as a rearview mirror when I pull into or back out of the garage Are you worried about it being too large?

You can see the hidden spot from behind or from another angle that is not easily visible from the front. It is just enough for you to spot it with little difficulty

How are you backing it up?

Then what you mean to say is Behind the mirror, what is there? It is hard to tell if they are alive or dead. Although I have been outside for two years, it does not seem to have absorbed any water as mine looks like it was painted synthetic material like hardboard. I have been with you for 3 years now.

The swivel mount of this camera is adjustable, right?

Yes, I agree with that The mount has a wide range of options.

I was able to save my garage wall with a big mirror
5/5

park my car behind a car whose front end is long and it makes it impossible for me to see the bumper when it's parked. As I parked, I wanted the mirror in my garage to keep the wall from hitting my car. On the contrary, I looked online for mirrors and based my decision upon the reviews given here, I ordered this one. When the mirror arrived, I had an idea that the mirror was 18" across, but I wasn't really sure of the size. The size of the project is amazing! In a box as large as that of the mirror, its packaging was excellent. (Shipping must have cost Amazon an arm and a leg. Fortunately, there is Prime. ) The mirror comes with a small mounting arm that worked beautifully for me, but I can see how others may not be able to achieve the same results It is easy to adjust the angle of the mirror after mounting thanks to the ball-and-socket system. There is one thing I want to mention. Convex mirrors have the tendency to become smaller the farther away they are from the mirror due to their curved nature. Convex mirrors are not to blame for this, it is just the way things are all around. It means that I can clearly see the garage wall (which is why I wanted the mirror) but not the garage opening for my application. From the mirror, there is about 8 feet between the garage wall and the wall of the garage. There is a 15-foot gap between the open garage door and the opening. Mirrored objects and people near the mirror could be seen clearly, but those at the far end of the aisle could not be seen.

A parking tool that is helpful
5/5

In order to park my F-class more comfortably, I needed this A new garage will cost 150 dollars. Since the drive-way is at an angle, this mirror helps prevent the right fender from being hit. It is important to get close to the truck's center so it can fit is a good size for a round disc of this size, 18 inches. My installation was based on mounting a scrap piece of 2x4 to the wall on the right side of the garage and attaching the bracket to it.

Stylish mirror that can be used indoors An outdoor area that has been modified
4/5

The label on this reads indoor, but I'm using it outdoors, and I didn't notice that. As I was not able to see my dogs from the kitchen window, I put it up as a way to watch them from the side yard. Usually this works well for things within relatively close distance, but less so when they are further away, like 30 feet away. It does seem to have some kind of cardboard backing which, if just replaced, would make it able to be used outside—you can only see movement, not details. It does have some kind of cardboard backing which, if it was replaced, would make it able to be used outdoors. To make sure it last longer, I put a coat of polyurethane over the cardboard. My next option would be to put some other kind of backing on it to continue using I have been finding it really helpful. I can now tell if my dogs are getting into trouble. So far, it has been holding up well so far. I think this is a great mirror.

Views the area in a wide, panoramic manner from the rear
5/5

This is a great I was very pleased that the mirror I ordered from you came well packaged rather than in a hundred pieces like the first one In our exercise room at the Condo, we use it. 10 feet is the width of the entrance door The workout equipment would be 15 feet behind the people using it, so while they are on the machines, they would have to look around to see who is coming, which is not a good idea since people can fall if distracted. provides all five users of the equipment with a clear view of the door without having to turn A plain mirror did not allow the entire back door to be seen, so we tried a regular flat mirror. We find it to be pretty sturdy and the back is adjustable via a ball socket, so we can adjust it as required, but it clearly covers the whole area and keeps us looking at the web site for a long time. While I was worried if 18 inches would be enough and that we would be able to see the back, it worked out well.

The garage will benefit from this
5/5

The reflection is of excellent quality and works perfectly. It is important to note that mounting screws are NOT included, but the cost of such materials is only about 15 cents. In case the screw heads aren't big enough, ensure that you buy some mounting screws, drywall anchors, and washers. Two drywall anchors were used in drywall, and I then screwed some long screws into those anchors. I find this to be a very solid product.

The parabolic mirror was a great product at a great price
5/5

I wanted our church secretary to be able to see who's standing in the lobby without standing up, so I searched for a reasonably priced parabolic mirror. In most cases, the glass was heavy and more expensive, requiring more support to mount. Unlike some other products, this one is significantly less expensive and weighs less than any other product and it is just right for her office corner and it does not take up much wall space.

This product is ideal for use in indoor garages By not scratching the garage entrance, the front bumper will last longer
5/5

I can't imagine a better fit than this It is imperative that the sides of the car can be clearly seen as it is driven into the garage. It was hard to see the front bumper clearance against the garage door because my car has a very long nose. Attached to the motor of my garage door opener, this piece was mounted. Since this is a convex mirror, things get very small at a short distance, as others have stated. In my case, the mirror is about 12 ft from the garage door and it works fine. It is easy to see how 2- would work In order to use this device, you would need to be 3 feet away. Convex mirrors work in the same way, so it is not the mirror's fault.

Only a limited number of people may move
4/5

Ideally suited for corners, which is exactly where it was designed to be but if you need it for other locations know that the angle is limited and you need to be adaptive to get the angle correct. Solid, decent construction and easy to mount, but may be difficult to install.
