Is a bathroom cabinet with a mirror and lighting a good solution?
There are many things to say about a bathroom, but certainly not that this place is big. There are of course really big bathrooms, called bathrooms because of their size, but this is just an exception that proves the rule. And this one clearly shows that in most cases there are not many square meters here. So you have to think about this room especially in the context of planning the arrangement of fittings, furniture and assortment.
Solutions that combine several functionalities work particularly well, where the bathroom cabinet with a sink is also equipped with a mirror and lighting. These can even be small lights above the mirror, but this does not change the fact that we gain so much within one arrangement solution. There is no doubt that a bathroom cabinet with a mirror and lighting is not even a good, but a very good solution. However, in order to choose a cabinet according to your needs and requirements, it is worth knowing what to look for before buying. More on this in the next paragraph!
What to consider when choosing a bathroom cabinet with a mirror and lighting?
Bathroom cabinets come in various versions. They can be free-standing, suspended, wall-mounted, etc. Regardless of what they are, it is certain that they are the basis in all bathrooms. Bathroom cabinets offered with a mirror are becoming increasingly popular because they provide many advantages - first of all, high functionality, because this type of cabinet is complete - there is not only a spacious piece of furniture, but also a bathroom mirror and useful additional lighting, which is of great importance during everyday hygiene. However, before buying, let's assess a few key aspects.
-
The most important thing to start with is the size and proportions of the cabinet. It should harmonize with the dimensions of the room, providing enough storage space. It cannot overwhelm the space, so the cabinet must be perfectly matched. The mirror should be large enough to allow comfortable viewing. There are various bathroom mirrors available, so we will definitely match something to our own needs. - Let's pay attention to the material of manufacture, because as we know - the bathroom has difficult conditions, where moisture prevails. When considering a cabinet, let's assess whether it is resistant to such difficulties, but also whether the bathroom cabinet with a mirror is easy to keep clean. A modern mirror cabinet is usually made of MDF board, covered with foil, varnish or laminate.
- Let's take into account the lighting issue. It is best to choose a set with LED lighting, because it is energy-efficient and guarantees bright, natural light. It is also good to check whether such a mirror cabinet is integrated, and also whether it has been equipped with intensity regulation. It is also good if the LED mirror cabinet has other functionalities, such as a built-in anti-fog system, etc.

How to properly connect power to a mirror with lighting?
As we can see, a bathroom cabinet with an LED mirror is a great solution in many places, but to properly match it, let's evaluate the above aspects. Another key issue for this type of mirror with lighting is connecting the power supply. How to do it?
- First, turn off the power at the main electrical panel to ensure your safety while you work. To be sure the power is off, use a voltage tester.
-
If this is the case, you can prepare the wires - neutral (N), phase (L) and ground (PE). - Let's open the junction box, which should be located at the back of the cabinet. This will give us access to the terminals. This is where we will connect the wires according to the manufacturer's instructions. Each of them must be firmly attached, without any play.
- Equally important is the correct sequence, i.e. phase to phase, neutral to neutral, ground to ground.
- It is very important that all connections are well insulated to prevent short circuits. To do this, check for exposed wires.
- After all this, we can now mount the mirror on the wall and turn on the power, testing how the lighting works.
