We are all familiar with mirrors, simply because we use this everyday in our homes and schools. So you may be asking what does mirror has to do with industrial and commercial processes. Well, here is the thing. Mirrors are very important safety and surveillance tools both for industrial and commercial applications. These are uses to avoid accidents, collisions and injuries, as well as unwanted events like robbery and harassment.
Mirrors are the cheapest, most effective way in seeing multiple views at the same time. You may have noticed dome and convex mirrors installed in groceries, department stores, hospitals and nursing homes. These wide angle mirrors allows you to see panoramic views of a certain place. That way you can clearly and easily see what every one else is doing or if you have there is someone or something is coming your way in an intersection. However, take note that dome and convex mirrors show us images that are smaller than their actual size. Flat mirrors on the other hand are the mirrors we usually have in our homes and it works mostly in the same manner. It offers distortion-free and an exact reflection of an image.
Mirrors are generally scratch resistant. They feature electrolytic copper plated back and mounting hardware. There are mirrors that are designed exclusively for indoor and outdoor applications. Typically, outdoor mirrors are made with rust and shatter resistant materials so it can stand natural element exposure.
