The bathroom cabinet doors are gradually losing the mirror finish in the corners and I'd like to replace them. AS Spares don't have any and wondered if there was a ready made source.
Also, how do you get the little darlings out of the runners ??? scratch head

Don't they just lift up and tilt out?

If only !!!!

I thought that at first and after 20 minutes of trying wondered if they were fitted in the tracks then the whole thing glued in to place ??
Am I being too gentle ..... ?

Hi, you will need to take the whole unit off,its easy enough its just 4 screws, two at top two at bottom after you have taken caps off.
Once its laid flat it flexes enough to take the mirrors out.

Sorry Terry to have given 'duff' info without really knowing.
Just looked at mine.....................and the glass won't come out!
I was going to suggest sliding something thin and flat under the runners, but Dave's suggestion would be worth a go first.

There were only 4 tiny screws holding the cabinet in place and once on a flat surface the doors came out with a little 'persuasion'.
Fareham Glass have quoted approx £6 per panel replacement and £4 to drill the hole in one panel for 4mm, but these are thinner.
The push button is held in with mastic only.
I'll go over there next week and keep you posted on the result.

Just to round this topic off, the doors are back and as they are now 4mm instead of the original 3mm, needed a bit of persuasion to get them back in the grooves. Having the cabinet off the wall made it a lot easier.
The press button catch has been re-inserted and secure using plumbers mait putty.
Having opted to have the original finger grips copied on the new doors, the overall cost tripled, £45 in total !! (£16 all in without)
I'll have to apply sealant to the LH wall before lifting the cabinet in to place and then seal up the 3 other exposed edges afterwards, not forgetting a dab in the screw holes.
Another job ticked off the shrinking list.
