Where to get (cheap) acrylic mirror from in Germany
-
I found something else: http://www.glas-per-klick.de/spiegel-antikspiegel/spionspiegel.html
since the small one (20x30cm) is pretty cheap I’ll just order one and try it out. I’ll keep you posted. -

I did ask Several glaciers in Munich for an offer of the Pilkington glass, however no one was able to provide an offer ( seems to be difficult to get a " Grosshändler" beeing able to sell this glass.
@yawns
Kindly apologize for the late answer, I just received the mirror and the invoice last week and I was on travel for several days. I paid tremendous 120 Eur for the glass, however, I “just wanted” it and they were extremely friendly, I can only tell you that it is from Glass Fuess, 6mm thickness, I do not have more data, but I can tell you, it really looks great. Currently assembling the frame, will post some pictures latest in two weeks, Regards Stefan -
@Steff
No need to apologize, this is just a fun thing, we all have our real live and more important stuff to do.
Did they ship the mirror or did you have to pick it up your self? -
Hi,
following your conversations since a few weeks, guess what ?! I have the same trouble in finding a two way mirror.
Thanks for all the helpfull comments, tough i still strougle to find a feseller that i can afford ;-) Today i was at a glazier, his answer was roughly 220€ for that kind of mirror in 60x60cm. Still trying to find alternatives online…I came across this webpage and there was an interessting side note: “Smart-Mirror können mit Spionspiegeln nur bedingt erstellt werden, dazu sind schwach reflektierende Spiegel besser geeignet. Diese können von uns bestellt werden, unterliegen aber einem Mindestbestellwert.” (Quote: http://www.glaserei-kater.de/spionspiegel.html) Which translates roughly into: Spymirrors/two way mirrors arent the most suitable for a smartmirror, the best should be a low/weak reflecting mirror.
Any ideas about that ? First time I hear from that kind of mirrors and no real products to find on the internet under the phrase “schwach reflektierender Spiegel”.
@dbahn25 The UK Side you mentioned doesnt ship to Germany do they ?

A couple of weeks ago I found this link where several mirrors had been tested (German). The pros and cons are listet in detail and the test results seems to be comprehensible to me: https://glancr.de/development/test-spionspiegel-fuer-smart-mirrors/
Maybe that helps if somebody is in doubt in the right mirror material.

Here are pictures of a mirror by myspiegel.de + frame of bilderrahmen-passt.de
The mirror is darker than another ones i saw on pictures. It’s not a mirror for makeup ;)
But im satisfied and my wife, too! It does look very fine and beautiful with the darkness of the glass.If you expect a real shiny mirror like in your bathroom myspiegel.de is the wrong shop for you.
Regards

@yawns
I picked up the mirror myself. They had a sample in their glasshop which I tested with my setup directly in their shop. Since I did like the result, I decided to order it from them. Stefan -
@DirkS
Where do you hide all the technical stuff ? Is that a “rigips” wall ? -
@Novcheck check this

@DirkS Nice thank you - was a bit confused, how you “shrunk” the stuff down ;-)
