Mirror cabinet door?

[Mudhiker]

I've searched here and also in all the build option sheets, in the E19 Virtual tour it looks like a cabinet door has a mirror on it. Is this an available option, and if so, where is it documented and what cabinets can have it? I think I want the extra, tall wardrobe cabinet in my upcoming E21C (next to the bed) and it seems ideal to have a mirror there.

You are correct that the wardrobe door of the 19 has a mirror. This was standard in 2018 and I believe it still is. I can only imagine that the wardrobe door on every Escape has a mirror.
I doubt they will do it on any other doors.

I don't know if it's an option but it's easy to install a mirror on any cabinet door. My wife didn't want one on the exterior side so I installed one on the smaller door. It's an central easy access area. Double backed tape probably would have been fine but, hey, it's inside a bouncing trailer so I added redundant clips.

Two options; use a real glass mirror. The door hinges aren't the strongest. If using a full length mirror on the long door I'd add a central 3rd hinge. The factory hinges aren't the strongest.

A light weight plastic mirror can be used. Easy to cut to size and less weight on the door hinges.

Yeah, the available longer wardrobe doors on the 21C don't look as tall and narrow as the 19. I think if anything should go on the outside, a magnetic dry erase board would be even more useful.

Actually if I’m not mistaken the mirror on the wardrobe door is only on the 19 and 21NE.

Check with Escape. The mirrors are standard on that particular door in the 19 and 21NE. I don’t think there are options on others cabinets or on other models.

Mine is a plexiglass mirror, attached with double sided tape to the inside of the bath door. It's been there, without incident, for more than a decade.

Keep in mind that you need light to illuminate the user or the mirror is of no use.

No cabinet door mirror (on either cabinet (I have the cabinet over the drawer stack) in my 2017 21C.

And installing a mirror on a door, especially the lighter plexiglass ones, the frame supports it so the tape has even an easier job to do.
