Recessed Mirror Cabinets - Tile Advice

[tommyzooom]

I'm planning to rip out and redo my own en-suite in a couple of weeks...
We need some storage though, and I'm leaning towards a recessed mirror cabinet, preferably lit.
It's large too, 1200-1400mm wide. Depth isn't important, as I'll build a false wall to suit
Any recommendations for one? One that doesn't require donating a kidney.

Last one I did . I bought a cabinet. Cut it down in depth. Then got mirrors cut to size and mirror adhesive to the door. Worked out far cheaper

That's a plan too.
How "flush" with the wall tiling did it end up though? Was the doors proud of the wall, and then glass as well?

Arguably the best mirror cabinets on the market are Schneider. You would have to donate a kidney though however they will last a lifetime.

I suppose the UK equivalent is HIB or Roper Rhodes. Both decent but they’re no Schneider. To get good quality of that size I’d expect you’d need to pay upwards of £500. You will get cheaper but the mirror backing will start to show after a couple of years.

Not got any pics of that one, but doors were just proud.
Here’s another from a while back. Probably cost more than a standard one to do , but worth the effort.
