Expert Opinion – Choosing the Right Mirror
From my experience at Sorfan, selecting the correct model is key to effectively improving safety. The basic rule is: the greater the distance from the observer to the mirror, the larger the diameter you should choose. For standard intersections, I usually recommend the round U-18a traffic mirror. However, where installation space is tight, the rectangular U-18b traffic mirror is ideal because it expands the horizontal field of view. An investment in high-quality, shatterproof equipment guarantees safety for years.
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Which traffic mirror is best for a driveway exit?
The best choice for narrow driveway exits is typically a rectangular U-18b mirror (e.g., 40x60 cm), which provides a wide horizontal field of view and fits easily into restricted spaces.
What is the difference between U-18a and U-18b mirrors?
The main difference lies in the shape and intended mounting location. The U-18a is round, meant for standard intersections. The U-18b is rectangular, reducing image distortion and perfect for narrow alleys or gates.
When should I choose anti-frost mirrors?
They are dedicated to areas with high humidity or regions prone to frequent temperature fluctuations. The special coating prevents steam and frost buildup, ensuring year-round visibility.
Are your industrial and shop mirrors guaranteed?
Yes, all our road safety and security products come with a full warranty. Our mirrors are manufactured from highly durable materials, proven by numerous strength tests.
