Posted By James S Hello everyone, Does anybody know of any specific safety requirements or manufacturing standards for mirrors. They will be approx. 1 metre x 2 metres in size and wall mounted in a martial arts training centre used by all ages from 4 yrs to adult. Thanks in advance James

Posted By Edward H Not that it is particularly relevant to the question of mirrors but I would hate anyone to get the wrong end of the stick... Most Georgian wired glass is NOT safety glass and must not be used where safety glazing is required. Indeed the wires create points of weakness and consequently it is weaker than unwired plate glass of the same thickness. The other more gorey reason is that if you do put your arm [or any other limb]through wired glass the wires prevent the broken glass from falling away, and hold the broken edges in place against your flesh. This means that you can often do more damage getting your arm back out of the window that going through it in the first place. For completeness you can order special wired glass that meets the impact criteria for safety glass, but it is not the norm.
