RackZone supplies convex safety mirrors to warehouses, factories, distribution centres, and yards across Ireland. The simplest and most cost-effective way to eliminate blind spots, prevent forklift collisions, and protect pedestrians at aisle junctions, doorways, and reversing zones. Indoor and outdoor options, weather-resistant construction, and a full range of diameters to suit every sight-line distance.
Safety mirrors are one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent collisions in busy Irish warehouses, factories, and distribution centres. Mounted at aisle junctions, doorways, blind corners, and reversing zones, convex safety mirrors give forklift drivers and pedestrians clear sight lines around obstacles — reducing the risk of impacts before they happen, and providing a low-cost layer of safety that complements physical barrier protection.
Wide-Angle Visibility, Compact Installation
Convex shaped to maximise field of view, our safety mirrors give a wide-angle reflection of the area behind a corner, doorway, or column. The compact installation — wall-mounted, post-mounted, or column-mounted — means they fit into spaces where physical barriers can't, and they work just as well outside in yards and loading areas as inside warehouses.
Where Safety Mirrors Make a Difference

RackZone makes it simple for businesses to get the storage and racking solutions they need, fast. Here’s why companies trust RackZone:
Safety mirrors don't replace physical barriers — they complement them. While crash stops and flexible barriers reduce the consequences of a collision, mirrors prevent the collision happening in the first place. The two together form a complete safety system: mirrors stop accidents before they start, barriers contain them when they do.
Safety mirrors are particularly valuable when:
In most well-designed warehouse safety systems, mirrors and barriers work together — barriers protect the highest-risk fixed routes, mirrors cover every blind corner and visibility gap. Our team can help you specify the right combination for your site.
Safety mirrors aren't specifically named in Irish workplace safety legislation, but under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007, employers must take all reasonable steps to prevent workplace accidents. In facilities where forklifts and pedestrians share space, safety mirrors at blind corners and junctions are widely regarded as a reasonable, low-cost measure that demonstrates compliance.
The right diameter depends on the sight-line distance — the further the operator is from the mirror when they need to use it, the bigger the mirror needs to be. As a rough guide: 300–400mm for tight indoor aisles, 500–600mm for standard warehouse junctions, and 700–800mm or larger for outdoor yards and long sight-line distances. Our team can advise based on your site layout.
Convex mirrors are almost always the right choice for industrial safety. The curved surface gives a much wider field of view than a flat mirror, allowing operators to see around full corners and across full intersections from a single mirror. Flat mirrors only show what's directly in front of them and are rarely useful in a warehouse context.
Yes. Our weather-resistant safety mirrors are designed for both indoor and outdoor installation, including yards, loading bays, and exposed traffic routes. They withstand rain, frost, and UV exposure without fading or warping.
Both. Every safety mirror comes with an adjustable mounting bracket that can be fixed to a wall, a post, or a column. The mounting bracket allows precise angle adjustment to capture the exact sight line you need.
Yes. Shatter-resistant polycarbonate options are available on request — recommended for schools, public-access sites, and any environment where impact damage to the mirror itself is a concern.
The two products do different jobs. Mirrors prevent collisions by giving operators clear sightlines around blind corners. Barriers reduce the consequences of collisions when they do happen. They're complementary, not interchangeable - most well-designed safety systems use both.
Yes. Most safety mirrors are designed for straightforward installation by site staff, with included mounting brackets and clear fixing instructions. For larger orders or full-facility fit-outs, our team can quote installation as part of the supply.
