Hanging a mirror flush to the wall

[Philip624]

I want to hang a pine mirror about 4ft wide, 3ft long so that it is flush against the wall, preferably without the fixings showing. What is the best way to go about this. The mirror is heavyish but not too heavy, it would need two hooks I think. The wall is solid although it is an internal wall, its a 1930s victorian house. Is there a particular type of fixing I should be looking for.

I did wonder about those brackets that you attach to the mirror and screw into the wall, that would certainly make it flush but of course these fixings show, I thought I could paint over the fixings to make them more discrete but it would not be ideal. Any thoughts?

use slotted brackets hidden behind the frame 2 top 2 bottom cut a recess for the screwheads
make shure the screws and slots are well lined up push the mirror onto the screwheads and drop down to lock on the slots

if your not 98percent accurate the mirror wont fit

You could use these, not entirely flush with the wall but very secure and the brackets are hidden.
