Bathroom Mirror Woes

[SB4U]

Ray, can you expand on your suggestions please. What kind of brackets would I need to use for a mirror of that size? Plus I'm not sure what you mean with your second suggestion.

I think this is what Ray means. Did this one a couple of years ago. Worked out where the mirror needed to go. Set out the tiles with box trim on the 4 internal sides and then just measured the internal dimension, took 2mm of each length and then got the glass cut to size and just fixed with mirrormate

Id agree the drilled holes are causing a weak point
I'd replace with an undrilled mirror and use these....

I would get a glass company in to template and fix the mirror, why do it yourself?
Do you get your electrician to do your plumbing? Or your plumber to do your tiling? Well maybe but look at the mess they normally make.
Get a professional glass/mirror company, they should know what to do and if it goes wrong they will put it right.

Thank you all for your suggestions. They're all very much appreciated. The boxed in mirror looks really tidy and I wish I'd done it like that in the first place. I'm not sure that I fancy re-cutting the tiles once they're on the wall though if I'm honest. Would you just use an angle grinder for that?

@JulianSidney you asked 'why do it yourself?' My answer is because I enjoy it. We all get our fun in different ways. This is one of the ways I get mine.
