Mirror Box Units | Making Premium Washrooms Practical

What is a Mirror Box Unit?

Venesta’s Mirror Box Units combine water, soap and hand drying behind a single mirrored wall, creating a modern, minimalist design that’s both stylish and functional. Each unit conceals the accessories you’d normally see on the wall, helping you achieve a smooth, uncluttered washroom aesthetic.

Why choose Mirror Box Units for a premium washroom?

Premium washrooms are defined by what users see and what maintenance teams can sustain. Mirror Box Units achieve both. They deliver a bold, seamless finish with integrated lighting and fully concealed fittings that simplify upkeep. The result is a washroom that feels calm, contemporary and easy to manage every day.

How do Mirror Box Units enhance hygiene and sustainability?

Contactless taps, soap dispensers, hand dryers and sanitiser units are all hidden within the cabinet, keeping surfaces clean and reducing touchpoints. Motion sensors ensure water, soap and energy are used efficiently, while LED lighting with a 50,000-hour lifespan supports long-term sustainability.

What lighting options are available?

Each Mirror Box Unit can be fitted with motion-activated front-facing LED lighting and a soft halo backlight, available in over 16 million RGBW colour combinations. These can be set to suit your project’s mood, brand or ambience, helping users look their best while highlighting the washroom’s design features.

How do Mirror Box Units make maintenance easier?

The mirror door opens to reveal secure, lockable access for refilling soap and paper towels. Off-site assembly ensures smooth installation, while easy operational plunge locks keep maintenance safe and simple. It’s a system built for both presentation and practicality.

What sizes and configurations are available?

Mirror Box Units are available in bespoke widths from 500mm to 1300mm, adjustable in 5mm increments to align with your washtrough layout. They pair perfectly with Solid Surface vanity units for a seamless, space-saving design. Depending on your layout, you can mount 2–12 accessories within a single unit.

Six design tips for specifying Mirror Box Units

1. Effortless ergonomics
   Align module widths to washtrough centres and keep outlets, soap and drying within easy reach. The result is a cleaner look and fewer smudges from over-reaching.
2. One service zone
   Keep water, soap, towels and drying inside the cabinet. Smooth faces outside, top-loading capacity and simple, secure locks inside. You get faster reset times and a front that stays calm.
3. Touch-free and resource efficiency
   Sensor-controlled taps, soap and dryers deliver only what is needed. Reducing contact points and cutting water, energy and consumables without turning the façade into a gadget wall.
4. Water safety
   Plan isolation, flush routes and accessible TMVs in line with HSE L8 and HSG274. If outlets sit inside the mirror, agree on supply, blending and purge procedures early. It looks seamless and stays safe to run.
5. Light faces as well as the wall
   Pair a soft halo with targeted face-level illumination and good colour rendering. People look their best and avoid unwanted glare.
6. Specify for the service model
   Work out how the space will run to keep standards high. Consider the refill route, towel type, soap format, who holds keys and target clean-down times. Factory pre-assembly shortens installation time and consistent iconography helps new teams learn fast.
