Toughened Antique Mirror Splashbacks

ypically splashbacks are toughened, particularly if positioned right next to a heat source like an Aga or gas hob.

As a kitchen splashback, provided the heat source is at least 200mm from the mirror, and no pan can rest directly on the glass while on the hob, then toughening is not essential.

If cut-outs are required for sockets or switches, provided they are more than 50mm from the edge of the glass (or another socket), then toughening is not needed. If you are in doubt about the toughening options (which may determine your choice of style), we recommend you take some photos of the area in question and forward them to us so that we can provide advice.
