Hi everyone today’s post is more about answering some of the questions asked about our magnifying mirror range. It’s structured to be of some help to the sales person when asked questions by the customer.
One of the most common questions received by JKSALES staff is can you put the wall mounted mirrors in the shower? The customer generally phrases the question a different way by asking if the mirror rusts. The answer to the first question is no these mirrors should not be mounted in the shower. They are fitted with real glass that can shatter if hit with hot water. If someone slips in the shower they may reach for the mirror unconsciously to steady themselves and pull the mirror off the wall. Should the glass break then it may hit you on the top of the leg or foot with serious cuts resulting. The mirror will rust if gets wet everyday, as it’s manufactured from steel with a chrome, nickel or gold finish. In a standard situation where the mirror is located in a normally ventilated bathroom then damage to the surface finish does not become an issue.
Direct wired and hard wired mean the same thing for the Halo series mirror with the HL8 lighted magnifying mirror our only direct wired model. Direct wired means an electrician is required to wire the mirror into the power system of the house. Whilst on this point the HL7C/G and the HL75C are plug into power point models. The power lead in the photo on the brochure has been photo shopped out to make a cleaner image. All the halo mirrors have their own separate on/off switch to operate the light mounted on the base plate.
When looking at the brochures customers sometimes choose a mirror based on the look or colour of the image. When photographing mirrors, the reflective surfaces pick up the surrounding light and as a result the image looks a different colour than it actually is. The best guide we can give you is to look at the code and the last letter gives the mirror finish. All codes are printed beside the image on the brochure. For example 7808N meaning it’s a nickel finish conversely C for Chrome a G for Gold on other mirrors.
With the JKSALES mirror range there are many different magnifications to choose from between 3X to 15X. On the large magnifications such as the 10X or the 15X the customer needs to know that to use the mirror, their face needs to be around 10cm or 4 inches back from the mirror surface. This is so the face does not appear distorted but rather gives a clean close up of the face. These mirrors will show every pore or if there are eyelash issues then they become much larger and easy to see.
Finally for all the JKSALES magnifying mirrors we carry spare parts which cover everything from chrome and gold nuts, halo glass mirror for the 3x and 5x range, spare brackets even antifog glass cleaner to give your magnifying mirror that crystal clear finish.
Hopefully these few points will resolve the questions your customers might have on the range of both lighted and non lighted magnifying mirrors.
