The Best Small Bathroom Mirror Cabinets for Compact Spaces
A small bathroom doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style or functionality. In fact, the right bathroom mirror cabinet can maximise storage, brighten your space, and add a sleek, modern touch. Bathroom mirror cabinets are a lifesaver for compact spaces, giving you practical storage solutions without taking up precious room. Here’s our guide to the best small bathroom mirror cabinets (and how to choose one that works for your space).
Why a Mirror Cabinet is Perfect for Small Bathrooms
When space is limited, every feature in your bathroom needs to work twice as hard. A mirror cabinet does just that by combining two essential elements—a mirror and storage—into one clever piece.
- Why It Works: It saves countertop space, keeps your bathroom organised, and reflects light to make the room feel bigger.
- Pro Tip: Choose a wall-mounted design to free up even more space, keeping your floor area clean and uncluttered.

Features to Look for in a Small Mirror Cabinet
Not all mirror cabinets are created equal. Look for features that add both practicality and style:
- Adjustable Shelves: Customise the inside to fit taller bottles or smaller essentials.
- LED Lighting: Built-in lights brighten up your bathroom and make grooming tasks easier.
- Auto Demister: No more wiping down a foggy mirror after a hot shower.
- Touchless Sensors: Convenient, modern, and great for hands-free lighting.
Cabinets in Buildmat’s LED Shaving Cabinets range are perfect for compact spaces, offering all these features in sleek designs.

How to Style Your Mirror Cabinet in a Small Bathroom
Keep it Minimal
The less clutter you have, the more open your bathroom will feel. A mirror cabinet keeps your essentials hidden while offering easy access.
- Style Tip: Pair a clean-lined cabinet with compact basins like the Lula Mini Fluted Matte White Basin for a sleek, minimalist vibe.
Add Layers of Light
In small bathrooms, lighting is everything. A mirror cabinet with built-in LEDs not only brightens the room but also creates the illusion of more space.
