Large mirror saves my garage wall

I have a long fronted car and when parking I don't see the bumper. I had to put a mirror in the garage so I wouldn't hit the wall when parking. I searched the internet for mirrors and based on the reviews I placed my order. I knew the mirror was 18 inches in diameter, but I didn't know exactly how big it was until the mirror arrived. It's huge! The mirror arrived very well packed in a solid cardboard box. Ship. Thank goodness for the Prime.) The mirror has a small mounting arm that worked great for me, but I can see how others might need to do something larger or custom for their setups. The mirror features a ball and socket adjustment system so it can be slightly tilted after installation. A note: Due to the nature of convex mirrors, objects shrink very quickly the further away they are from the mirror. For my application, that means I can see the garage wall very well (which is why I wanted a mirror), but not the garage opening. The garage wall is about 8 feet from the mirror. The garage opening is approximately 15 feet. I don't think this mirror could be used in a hardware store. For example to monitor passages. Objects and people near the mirror were clearly visible, but no objects and people down the aisle.

Pros
  • Industry and Science
Cons
  • unreliable
