Mirror Screws Cap – Brass Chrome Decorative Cover Caps (10mm to 25mm Diameter)
When you’re hanging a heavy mirror, a glass splashback, or a glass shelf, the screws are necessary – but exposed metal heads can look industrial and out of place. That’s where these decorative mirror screw cover caps come in. They fit over standard mirror screws (or any screw with a compatible head) and give you a clean, polished disc plate that hides the fastener. Made from solid brass with a bright chrome or gold finish, they resist tarnishing and daily wear. Choose from round flat or dome styles, in diameters from 10mm up to 25mm. Perfect for bathrooms, dressing tables, glass signage, or any furniture where you want the hardware to disappear – or to add a subtle elegant accent.
✨ Why Choose These Brass Chrome Cover Caps?
🔩 Designed specifically for mirror & glass fixing – Works with standard mirror screws to give a finished, professional look when attaching glass, mirrors, or splashbacks to walls.
🔩 Solid brass construction with chrome or gold finish – Built to resist daily corrosion and tarnishing, ensuring durability and longevity. The shiny surface stays bright for years.
📏 Wide size range – 10mm to 25mm diameter – Available in 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 19mm, 20mm, 22mm, and 25mm. Choose the cap that best covers your screw head and matches your fixture.
🎨 Two classic color options: silver (chrome) or gold – Chrome gives a modern, cool tone; gold adds warmth. Both blend well with brass, stainless steel, or zinc alloy trims.
🔘 Flat or domed head style – Flat caps sit nearly flush for a minimal look; dome caps have a slightly raised profile that catches light nicely.
🛋️ Wide application – Ideal for mirrors, tea tables, wardrobes, glass signs, wooden furniture, and any project where you need to conceal screw heads gracefully.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions – Mirror Screw Cover Caps
🔩 Do these caps work with any mirror screw, or do I need special screws?
They are designed to fit standard mirror screws (sometimes called “mirror bolts” or “glass screws”) – typically a Phillips flat head screw with a small thread that goes into a wall anchor or a threaded barrel. The cap snaps or screws over the head. If you already have mirror screws, measure the outer diameter of the screw head. Choose a cap that is slightly larger (e.g., 14mm cap for a 10mm screw head). We also sell matching screws separately – contact us if you need a complete set.
🔧 How do I attach the cap – does it glue on or screw on?
Most of these caps are push‑fit or snap‑on. You first install the mirror screw into the wall or furniture. Then you press the decorative cap over the exposed screw head. Some designs have a slight interference fit; others may have internal threads. For this set, they are friction‑fit – no glue needed for normal use. If you want extra security in high‑humidity areas (like a bathroom), a tiny dab of clear silicone inside the cap works well.
💧 Will the chrome or gold finish rust or tarnish over time?
The caps are made from solid brass, then chrome- or gold-plated. Brass itself resists corrosion, and the plating adds a hard, shiny layer. In normal indoor conditions (living rooms, bedrooms, offices), they will stay bright for many years. In high‑humidity bathrooms or near salt air, occasional wiping is recommended. Unlike cheap zinc alloy caps, these will not quickly pit or discolor.
📏 What size cap should I order for my project?
Measure the diameter of the screw head you want to cover. Choose a cap that is at least 2–4mm larger than the screw head. For example, if your screw head is 8mm wide, a 12mm cap provides a nice decorative rim. Also consider the thickness of the glass/mirror – the cap should sit flush or slightly recessed. If you’re unsure, start with a mid‑size like 16mm – it covers most standard mirror screws.
🛠️ Can I use these on wooden furniture instead of mirrors?
Absolutely. Many people use them to hide screw heads on cabinets, wardrobes, tea tables, and even headboards. They give a much cleaner look than bare screws. Just pre‑drill a shallow counterbore if you want the cap to sit flush with the wood surface. The gold or chrome finish complements brass handles and hinges nicely.
