How to Replace a Medicine Cabinet Mirror
Replacing a medicine cabinet mirror is a relatively easy task that can be completed in a few simple steps. Whether you're replacing a broken mirror or simply want to update the look of your bathroom, this guide will walk you through the process. ### Step 1: Gather Your Materials Before you begin, you'll need to gather the following materials: * Replacement mirror * Tape measure * Pencil * Level * Screwdriver * Hammer * Nails * Wood filler ### Step 2: Measure and Cut the Replacement Mirror 1. Measure the dimensions of the old medicine cabinet mirror. 2. Transfer these measurements to the replacement mirror. 3. Use a glass cutter or a utility knife to score the replacement mirror along the cut lines. 4. Break the mirror along the score lines. ### Step 3: Remove the Old Medicine Cabinet Mirror 1. Open the medicine cabinet door. 2. Locate the screws that secure the mirror to the cabinet door. 3. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws. 4. Carefully remove the old mirror from the cabinet door. ### Step 4: Prepare the Cabinet Door for the New Mirror 1. Clean the cabinet door thoroughly with a damp cloth. 2. If there are any holes in the cabinet door, fill them with wood filler. 3. Let the wood filler dry completely. ### Step 5: Install the New Medicine Cabinet Mirror 1. Place the new mirror on the cabinet door. 2. Align the mirror with the screw holes. 3. Use a screwdriver to secure the mirror to the cabinet door. 4. Close the medicine cabinet door. ### Step 6: Level the Medicine Cabinet Door 1. Use a level to check if the medicine cabinet door is level. 2. If the door is not level, adjust the height of the hinges until it is. ### Step 7: Touch Up the Paint 1. If any of the paint on the cabinet door was damaged during the installation process, touch it up with a matching paint color. 2. Let the paint dry completely. Your new medicine cabinet mirror is now installed and ready to use! ### Tips: * If you don't feel comfortable cutting the replacement mirror yourself, you can take the old mirror to a glass shop and have them cut the new mirror for you. * Be careful when removing the old mirror from the cabinet door. It's easy to break the mirror if you're not careful. * If you have a frameless medicine cabinet, you may need to use adhesive to attach the new mirror to the cabinet door. * If you're installing a new medicine cabinet mirror in a bathroom, make sure to use a mirror that is specifically designed for use in a humid environment.![Bathroom Medicine Cabinet Mirror Replacement Doityourself Com Community Forums Bathroom Medicine Cabinet Mirror](https://i2.wp.com/www.doityourself.com/forum/attachments/glass-mirrors/50914d1432324859-bathroom-medicine-cabinet-mirror-replacement-img_8401.jpg?strip=all)
