I've been here before in the past with this same mirror and got such great help I had to come back again. Knowing how the minds of people far more experienced than I in DIY and home construction work, let's just get this out of the way so we're all on the same page... Yes, I mean plaster. Not...

I am renovating our garage into a gym, and picked up this heavy (100lbs+) mirror. How can I safely mount this onto a brick wall, without worrying about it coming loose from dropping weights in the room. Thank you.

Hi everyone. A kid on a bicycle broke my side mirror. Everything on the mirror still works (the mirror moves with the button, the camera works, the sensor, the light, etc). But the piece where it connects to the car and swivels is broken. The local auto body shop and the dealer quoted me...

I just decided over the weekend that I wanted to do woodworking. I have always desired it but never actually pursued it. I went out and purchased a circular saw, jigsaw, drill and staple gun (plan on doing upholstery). But I also ended up purchasing a MONSTER mirror. It is frameless, 99" x...

I have an old bathroom mirror that was framed by adhering the frame directly to the glass. Hence, when you see it from behind, all you see is the mirror, no frame edge. Here's the dilemma: I can't add hangers because there is no wood for them to screw into. I can't use plastic clips because...

I am converting my living room to a dance studio and looking to "temporarily" install wall-to-wall mirrors.
