safety mirrors

Convex visibility aids

Safety mirrors are mirrors positioned to reveal otherwise hidden areas, reducing risk of collision or accident.

Convex mirrors at blind corners in parking garages, rearview mirrors in vehicles, and overhead mirrors in warehouses all serve this function.

The curved surface of many safety mirrors provides a wider field of view at the cost of some distortion.
