Acrylic mirrors offer a lightweight, durable, and versatile alternative to traditional glass mirrors. Their safety features, ease of installation, and customisable options make them suitable for a wide range of applications in residential, commercial, and artistic settings. Whether for decorative purposes or practical use, acrylic mirrors provide an attractive and functional solution.
One of the primary advantages of acrylic mirrors is their enhanced safety features. Unlike glass mirrors, acrylic mirrors are shatter resistant, which significantly reduces the risk of injury in case of accidental impact or breakage. This property makes them ideal for spaces where physical activity is intense, and the possibility of equipment or people colliding with mirrors is higher, such as in gyms.
Safety is also an important aspect where children are present which is why our childsafe mirrors are the perfect solution in schools, nurseries and children's bedrooms.
Lightweight and Easy to Install
Acrylic mirrors are much lighter than glass mirrors, making them easier to handle and install. Their lightweight nature simplifies the installation process and reduces the need for heavy-duty hardware. This allows for more flexibility in placement options and makes acrylic mirrors a convenient choice for DIY enthusiasts. The fact that they are less likely to break in transit or during the installation process means they are more cost-effective than glass mirrors which may need replacing before installation.
Versatility
Acrylic mirrors offer versatility in terms of design and customisation. They can be easily cut into various shapes and sizes compared to glass, allowing for creative and unique applications. Acrylic mirrors are available in different colours and finishes making it possible to create custom designs or incorporate them into artistic projects or your home decor. Our pebble mirrors are available in silver, rose gold, smoke grey and gold to complement all decors.
Outdoor Use
Acrylic mirrors are also suitable for outdoor applications. They are resistant to weather conditions and UV radiation, making them an excellent choice for outdoor decorations, garden mirrors, or architectural installations. Acrylic mirrors can withstand exposure to sunlight without fading or deteriorating, unlike glass.
Cost Effective
Acrylic mirrors are generally more affordable than traditional glass mirrors, making them a cost-effective option for individuals or businesses with budget constraints. They offer similar reflective properties to glass mirrors while providing additional advantages, making them a practical choice for those seeking value for money.
Perspex® Acrylic is 100% recyclable. Waste products can readily be recovered from the original raw material (the monomer) and re-used in a new sheet.
Perspex® has been manufactured in the UK for over 85 years and still takes place on the same site in Lancashire as it did in the 1930s. This short supply distance to our UK customers helps reduce ‘product miles’ from the manufacturing plant to the end user.
Numerous different investments have already been made by Perspex® to lessen the impact on the environment. Annual waste consumption has been reduced by 24 million litres, and almost 800 tonnes of carbon dioxide have been saved every year as part of a hot water recycling project. At Cut My, we work to be more sustainable by using all of our offcuts to heat our manufacturing facility. We are also currently working towards reducing our packaging.
Delivered on time in good condition. Maybe could have mentioned that both sides were covered in blue protective film.

This company is amazing. My order was dealt with quickly and has proved to be of excellent quality. Before I placed my order, they emailed it to me so I could review it. Being a lady of senior years I found this invaluable. I will definitely use them again. Five stars all round.

On the right track
There is no way of getting Cut My to answer an email or even bother viewing the chat. Tried three times, over weeks, to no avail.
OK, so the choice of products and services is brilliant, and the products ordered are cut to exactly the size and delivered promptly (samples not quite so, had to wait a while), but if something goes wrong, there is no way to resolve it short of showing up in person.
Should I have more luck by leaving you this review here on the offchance you might respond: order # 000648983, you sent me the wrong thickness of acrylic sample. I need 3mm, you sent me 5mm. Could you please send me the 3mm instead?
Yes, I can imagine what a 2mm less thickness looks like, but I can't see how much that imaginary acrylic bends, so I'd really like to experience it in person. I paid for the sample after all, and you will get my business in the future if I can actually see what I'll be buying.
Update 5/12/23 Still no contact...
Update 7/12/23 They eventually responded to the chat and a nice guy also rang me just now to arrange for a sample replacement to be sent out, so I'll update the review once it arrives. So far so good.

Shaker doors - top quality at a really good price.
Having previously bought a lot of MDF board cut to size to make an integrated wine rack and fitted shelf unit, I decided to go ahead and purchase 4 cabinet doors for cupboards in alcoves in our sitting room we were planning. I had already bought 4 doors from a company on eBay which were a standard size and whilst the dimensions were ok, they didn’t really work so reluctantly decided to splash out and get 4 made to the exact size we wanted and ditch the unused ones. So, so glad I did, the quality of the new doors is far superior, the edges are finished so will give a really good finish when painted, the construction of the doors means the internal angles are sharp (not a routed curve) and the overall look and feel is very, very good. If you’re thinking of giving your kitchen a makeover and replacing your doors with a shaker design I would wholeheartedly recommend that you go with it - whilst our project was not a kitchen, the look of the cabinets once finished will rival a bespoke joinery product!

Simple and straightforward ordering
It was simple and straightforward to order the Perspex I needed to replace my boat windows. The website was very easy to navigate and additional machining such as corner rads were easy to specify.
The materials arrived well packaged and on time. The protective backing paper is well adhered and easy to trim.
Overall very happy with my experience.
