Mirror Viewing Distance Guide for Optimal Performance

When choosing a mirror, for best performance, it is important to choose one of the right size for your application.  This viewing distance guide is designed to help you decide.

The most critical factor in working out what size mirror will be right for you, is the distance from which the mirror will be viewed (viewing distance) - i.e. the distance between the person viewing the mirror and the mirror itself.
