Man, It's been a while since I have been on here. I put a tv behind a mirror years ago before they really made options for this. I bought the glass and remember taping off the back of the 2 way glass and almost burning up a little plasma monitor. I was so proud of myself. I have a customer that wants a tv behind mirror in her master bath. She wants the tv to be in bottom corner of mirror and not to fill up entire mirror. She needs to still be able to put on makeup and see herself. Surely i saw where they have kits to do all of this now. Which company?
Thanks,
|

Swank hotels put that type of Seura mirror in their rooms.... Don't know if you can choose where the image goes or not.

Seura's vanishing TV mirror won't provide a bright mirror image for applying makeup. It will be darker than a traditional mirror. They have a non-vanishing mirror where the TV is visible as a dark rectangle when off, but this provides a bright traditional silvered mirror finish and the TV image looks better too. You can get samples of the mirror glass to show your client. I did a job a couple years ago with two large vanishing mirror TVs and ended up having to replace the glass on both to the non-vanishing version. Client saw mirror samples before I ordered but wanted the cool "vanishing" TV... in the end, the mirrors just weren't good enough to use for makeup, etc. Client even went through the expense to add additional lighting into the bath hoping it would help, but it didn't. You can specify TV size and where to place the television. Here's a photo after switching to the non-vanishing glass:

Anyone still doing this? I was discussing using a mirror or roll-up artwork to hide a Kitchen TV- looking for options on both- we can provide the frame.

I showed my client the samples and she actually opted for the black square and normal looking mirror due to the dimness of the truly invisible TV mirror.
