Mirror Guard Ltd

Mirror Guard Ltd and its wing mirror protection range

Mirror Guard Ltd is a UK-based manufacturer of protective covers for the wing mirrors of motorhomes, panel vans and van conversions. The company states that it is in its fifteenth year of manufacturing and that all its mirrorguards are hand made in the UK. The product line is aimed at reducing the risk of accidental damage to mirrors, which the company describes as a frequent occurrence and an expensive one to repair.

The origin of the business is linked to damage sustained by motorhome mirrors that had previously been repaired by plastic welding. Although that repair method worked, the company presents it as time-consuming and costly, which led to the development of a dedicated protective cover.

Materials and construction

According to the company, early tooling was handmade for the Fiat, Citroën and Peugeot mirrors used on motorhomes, vans and van conversions registered between 2001 and 2006 and from 2007 onwards. Tests compared fibreglass with ABS plastic, and the company reports that 5mm ABS proved the strongest material, which it continues to use.

In 2015 and 2016 the company carried out further research into a shock-absorbent material and selected a foam similar to that used in crash helmets. All short, medium and long armed mirrorguards now include a foam liner. The white and silver versions are made from virgin, non-recycled 5mm ABS outdoor plastic with a scratch- and UV-resistant coating; the company states that this coating makes scratches easy to polish out and protects against tarnishing or fading. A rubber trim is fitted around the edge, sealing the cover around the mirror and removing the need for screws, so that the assembly can remain flexible and move on impact.

Colours and fitting logic

Mirrorguards are produced in three colours: a standard semi-matte black intended to match the original mirror, silver grey, and white, which the company describes as the most popular because it makes the mirror more visible to oncoming drivers. The design rationale given is that motorhome mirrors are usually long-armed to clear the width of the body, which exposes them to contact with other vehicles, walls, signs and hedgerows.

Stated advantages and quality positioning

The company argues that a damaged motorhome wing mirror can cost three times as much to replace as a pair of Mirrorguards, and highlights impact resistance, ease of fitting, low cost and full protection as the product's main attributes. It also warns about imitation products, listing problems it says have been reported or encountered with other offerings: poor fit, very thin material, cheap foreign manufacture, and lack of UV stabilisation leading to tarnishing within three months that cannot be polished out. Mirror Guard Ltd presents these points as part of its own quality argument rather than as an independent assessment.

The company states that it has sold thousands of pairs worldwide.
