Convex Mirrors

Convex mirrors are commonly used in indoor and outdoor areas to improve safety and visibility. They are often installed in car parks, driveways, and some intersections to eliminate blind spots and enhance surveillance. They are also used in warehouses, factories, and retail stores to monitor aisles, corners, and intersections.

The use of convex mirrors offers several benefits. They provide a larger field of view, allowing for better observation of surroundings. They enhance safety by reducing the risk of accidents, as they help eliminate blind spots and increase visibility around corners and tight spaces. Additionally, convex mirrors are cost-effective compared to other surveillance systems.

Yes, convex mirrors are suitable for outdoor use. They are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, snow, and sunlight. They are often constructed with durable materials and treated to resist fading, corrosion, and other environmental factors.

Convex mirrors should be installed strategically to maximise their effectiveness. They are typically mounted on walls, poles, or other suitable surfaces at a height that provides a clear view for users. It’s important to position them in areas where they can cover blind spots and provide a comprehensive view of the surroundings. Proper installation ensures optimal safety and surveillance capabilities.

Our range of convex mirrors is designed to meet various needs and preferences. Here’s a breakdown of the sizes available:

1. 1000mm Convex Mirror: This larger size is ideal for areas where a broad field of view is necessary, such as parking lots, driveways, or wide intersections. Its size ensures excellent visibility over larger distances.
2. 800mm Convex Mirror: Slightly smaller than the 1000mm option, this size still offers a wide viewing angle and is suitable for spaces where a broad perspective is needed but with slightly less coverage.
3. 600mm Convex Mirror: A mid-sized option that strikes a balance between visibility and space requirements. Great for indoor or outdoor use in areas like warehouses, smaller parking lots, or retail spaces.
4. 450mm Convex Mirror: This smaller convex mirror is perfect for tighter spaces or areas where a more focused view is needed. It’s commonly used in smaller retail stores, tight corridors, or driveways with limited space.

Each size caters to specific needs, ensuring that regardless of the space or requirements.

Convex mirrors and dome mirrors serve similar purposes in enhancing visibility and surveillance, but they have distinct features:

Convex Mirrors:

• Shape: Convex mirrors have a curved surface that bulges outward, creating a wider field of view.
• Reflection: They reflect light uniformly, providing a panoramic view of the surrounding area.
• Distortion: Objects reflected in convex mirrors appear smaller, and their distance is distorted. They offer a broader view but sacrifice accurate size representation
• Sizes Available: 450mm, 600mm, 800mm, 1000mm

Dome Mirrors:

• Shape: Dome mirrors have a hemispherical or semi-spherical shape, often resembling half a sphere or a dome.
• Reflection: They reflect light in multiple directions, allowing a full 360-degree view, especially in tight or hidden spaces like store aisles or corners.
• Distortion: Dome mirrors create a reflection that doesn’t provide a true-to-life representation of the scene. They are more for surveillance and monitoring purposes than for accurate depiction of objects’ sizes or distances.
• Sizes Available: Quarter Dome 600mm, Half Dome 600mm and Full Dome600mm

Convex mirrors offer a wide but distorted view, suitable for areas where a broad perspective is crucial, while dome mirrors provide a comprehensive view in all directions, ideal for surveillance in confined spaces. Each serves its purpose based on the specific needs of the area or environment where they’re installed.

A convex mirror is also known as a fisheye or blind spot mirror. It takes the form of a domed or lens-shaped mirror that reflects light in multiple directions instead of a single one. As a result, it provides an exceptionally broad field of view. Safety and visibility are intricately connected, and the wide perspective offered by a convex mirror significantly enhances both.
