We now stock an extensive selection of excellent Moravia convex mirrors including traffic safety mirrors, industrial mirrors, observation mirrors and inspection mirrors. Read on to learn more.
Choosing the right convex mirror can make a significant difference to visibility and safety in areas where buildings, machinery, shelving, walls or other obstructions create blind spots.
To expand our range of professional traffic and safety mirrors, Insight Security is now offering a comprehensive selection of convex mirrors from Moravia, covering applications from industrial workplaces and warehouses to roads, junctions, retail premises and vehicle inspection areas.
The new Moravia range includes traffic mirrors, industrial mirrors, observation mirrors, panoramic mirrors and portable inspection mirrors, with different materials, shapes, mounting systems and sizes available to suit a wide variety of applications.
Moravia has more than 60 years of experience in protection equipment and marking systems for traffic areas, and its mirrors are widely used on industrial and municipal sites.
Why use a convex mirror?
A conventional flat mirror provides a relatively narrow field of view. A convex mirror curves outwards, allowing it to reflect a much wider area.
This makes convex mirrors particularly useful where the objective is to see around corners, monitor blind spots or improve visibility at intersections.
Typical applications for these convex mirrors include:
- Warehouse aisles and industrial premises
- Factory floors and production areas
- Car parks and private roads
- Site entrances and exits
- Blind corners and junctions
- Loading bays
- Forklift and pedestrian areas
- Retail and commercial premises
- Security and observation applications
- Vehicle and machinery inspection
- Road and traffic management.
The important point is that a convex mirror does not eliminate a blind spot in the physical sense. Instead, it provides an additional field of vision, allowing people to see areas that would otherwise be hidden.
A Moravia mirror for almost every application
The new Insight Security range has been selected to cover a particularly broad spectrum of requirements.
Rather than offering one generic convex mirror for every situation, the Moravia range includes different designs for different environments.
Moravia View-Minder industrial mirrors
The Moravia View-Minder Industrial Duty Mirror is designed for demanding industrial applications where robust construction and good visibility are important.
Industrial mirrors can be used to improve visibility around corners, at the ends of aisles and in areas where vehicles, forklifts and pedestrians share the same working environment.
For larger industrial areas, choosing an appropriately sized mirror can help provide a useful field of view from a greater distance.

Moravia View-Minder traffic mirrors
Traffic mirrors are particularly useful at entrances, exits, junctions and other locations where drivers need to see approaching vehicles or pedestrians.
The Moravia View-Minder Traffic Mirror provides a practical solution for improving visibility at potentially hazardous blind spots.
There is also a View-Minder Eco Traffic Mirror, providing another option for applications where a more economical solution is required.

Observation mirrors for security and visibility
Convex observation mirrors are widely used in environments where staff need to monitor areas that cannot be seen directly.
The Moravia Detective range includes several different observation mirror designs, including wall-mounted, magnetic and Eco models.
These can be particularly useful in shops, warehouses, commercial premises and other locations where shelving, partitions or building layouts create visual obstructions.
Detective magnetic-mount convex mirror
The Moravia Detective Convex Mirror with Magnetic Mount offers a particularly flexible approach where a suitable ferrous surface is available.
Its magnetic mounting system can make it useful for applications where the mirror needs to be positioned without a conventional permanent wall fixing.

Panoramic mirrors for an exceptionally wide field of view
Sometimes a conventional convex mirror is not enough. Where an extremely broad area needs to be monitored, a panoramic mirror can provide a much wider field of vision.
The Moravia range includes 90°, 180° and 360° panoramic observation mirrors, providing options for different viewing requirements.
These mirrors can be particularly useful for monitoring intersections between aisles, large open areas and locations where visibility is required across multiple directions.

Portable inspection mirrors
Not every visibility problem requires a permanently installed mirror.
For inspection work, maintenance and checking difficult-to-access areas, Moravia also offers portable inspection mirrors with extendable handles.
The range includes both a hand-held 230mm model and a castor-type 450mm model, making these useful where personnel need to inspect underneath, behind or around vehicles, machinery and other equipment.

How do you choose the right convex mirror?
With so many options available, it is worth considering several factors before selecting a mirror.
1. Where will the mirror be installed?
The first consideration is the environment.
A mirror installed outside at a vehicle entrance may have very different requirements from one installed inside a warehouse, retail premises or factory.
2. What needs to be visible?
Consider whether the mirror is intended primarily for:
- Vehicle visibility
- Pedestrian safety
- Forklift awareness
- Security observation
- Monitoring blind corners
- Traffic management
- Machinery inspection.
This will help narrow down the most appropriate product type.
3. How far away will the viewer be?
Mirror size matters.
A larger mirror can be appropriate where the viewing distance is greater or where a larger area needs to be monitored. However, simply choosing the largest available mirror is not necessarily the right solution for every installation.
4. What mounting arrangement is required?
The Moravia selection includes different mounting approaches, including wall-mounted and magnetic options, as well as portable inspection mirrors.
The available mounting surface and the desired installation position should therefore be considered before ordering.
5. What environment will the mirror face?
For demanding outdoor or industrial environments, material and construction are important considerations. The availability of stainless steel Durabel models, glass mirrors and other specialist constructions means there are options for different operating conditions.
Convex mirrors: a simple way to improve visibility
A convex mirror is a relatively simple piece of equipment, but it can solve a surprisingly wide range of visibility problems.
Whether the requirement is a traffic mirror at a site entrance, an industrial mirror in a warehouse, an observation mirror in a shop or a portable inspection mirror for vehicle and machinery checks, the right mirror can provide an additional field of vision where direct visibility is restricted.
The new Moravia mirror range at Insight Security brings together a particularly broad selection of professional mirrors, including traffic, industrial, observation, panoramic and inspection models.
With a choice of sizes, materials, mounting systems and designs, the range makes it easier to find a mirror suited to the specific environment and application.

Which Moravia Convex Mirror Do I Need? Frequently Asked Questions
Which Moravia convex mirror is best for a warehouse?
For warehouses, factories and other industrial environments, a robust industrial or observation mirror is often appropriate. The Moravia View-Minder Industrial Duty Mirror is specifically designed for demanding industrial applications and can help improve visibility around corners, at aisle ends and in areas where forklifts and pedestrians may share the same space.
The appropriate mirror size will depend on the viewing distance and the area that needs to be visible.
What is the best Moravia mirror for a road or site entrance?
For vehicle entrances, exits, private roads and junctions, a Moravia traffic mirror is a suitable choice. The View-Minder range provides options for improving visibility where buildings, walls, fences or vegetation restrict a driver`s direct view.
When choosing a traffic mirror, consider the distance between the driver and the mirror, the size of the area that needs to be viewed and whether the mirror will be exposed to demanding outdoor conditions.
Which Moravia mirrors are suitable for outdoor use?
Several Moravia mirrors are designed for traffic and outdoor applications. The range includes View-Minder traffic mirrors, as well as stainless steel Durabel models and the View Ultra Sekurit glass traffic mirror.
The most appropriate choice depends on the environment, required durability, mounting position and budget.
What size convex mirror do I need?
The correct mirror size depends primarily on the distance between the observer and the mirror and the area that needs to be visible.
As a general principle, a larger mirror can provide a more useful image when viewed from a greater distance, while a smaller mirror may be perfectly adequate for shorter viewing distances.
It is therefore important to consider the installation location and viewing distance rather than simply choosing the largest available mirror.
What is the difference between a traffic mirror and an observation mirror?
Although both are convex mirrors, they are generally intended for different applications.
Traffic mirrors are primarily used to improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians at entrances, exits, junctions and other traffic-related blind spots.
Observation mirrors are commonly used inside commercial, retail and industrial premises to monitor areas hidden by walls, shelving, partitions or other obstructions.
Moravia offers both types, allowing the mirror to be selected according to its intended application.
Which Moravia mirror is suitable for a shop or retail premises?
For shops and retail environments, an observation mirror such as a Moravia Detective model can help staff monitor areas that are difficult to see directly.
The Detective range includes different designs and mounting options, allowing a suitable mirror to be selected according to the available space and installation requirements.
Can I mount a Moravia convex mirror without permanently fixing it to a wall?
Yes. The Moravia Detective Convex Mirror with Magnetic Mount provides a flexible option where a suitable ferrous surface is available.
A magnetic mounting system can be particularly useful where the mirror needs to be positioned or repositioned without using conventional permanent fixings.
Which Moravia mirror gives the widest field of view?
For applications requiring exceptionally broad observation, Moravia offers Panoramic 90°, 180° and 360° observation mirrors.
These specialist mirrors can be useful where visibility is required across a particularly wide area or in multiple directions. The appropriate panoramic configuration depends on the layout of the area being monitored.
Are Moravia convex mirrors suitable for industrial safety applications?
Yes. Convex mirrors can be used as part of a wider workplace visibility and safety strategy in factories, warehouses, loading areas and other industrial environments.
They can help users see around corners and identify approaching vehicles, forklifts or pedestrians that would otherwise be hidden from view. However, a convex mirror should be considered an additional visibility aid rather than a replacement for appropriate traffic management, signage, physical segregation or other safety measures.
Are there Moravia mirrors made from stainless steel?
Yes. The Moravia range includes several stainless steel options, including the Durabel Pro, Durabel Basic and Durabel Lite ranges.
Stainless steel construction can be particularly useful where a robust mirror is required for demanding environments.
Are Moravia convex mirrors available in different shapes?
Yes. The range includes different designs and shapes, including round and oval wall-mounted observation mirrors, as well as specialist traffic, industrial and panoramic designs.
The shape and design can be selected according to the available mounting area, required field of view and intended application.
Does Moravia make portable inspection mirrors?
Yes. The Moravia Vision portable inspection mirrors are designed for situations where a permanently installed mirror is not appropriate.
The range includes extendable-handle hand-held and castor-type inspection mirrors, which can be used for checking difficult-to-access areas around vehicles, machinery and equipment.
What is a convex mirror used for?
A convex mirror is used to provide a wider field of view than a conventional flat mirror. Common applications include monitoring blind corners, improving visibility at traffic junctions, observing warehouse aisles, monitoring retail areas and inspecting vehicles or machinery.
The outward curve of the mirror allows it to reflect a wider area, making it useful wherever direct line-of-sight is restricted.
How do I choose the right Moravia mirror?
Start by identifying what you need to see, where the mirror will be installed and how far away the observer will be.
Then consider:
- Application: traffic, industrial, observation or inspection
- Viewing distance: how far away the user will be from the mirror
- Required field of view: the size and direction of the area that needs to be visible
- Environment: indoor, outdoor or demanding industrial conditions
- Mirror material: for example, stainless steel, glass or other construction
- Mounting: wall-mounted, magnetic or portable
- Available space: the physical area available for installation
- Budget: Moravia offers options at different specification and price points.
With such a broad selection available, choosing according to the specific application rather than simply selecting a generic convex mirror will help ensure the mirror provides the required visibility.
