ABSTRACT:
A method and a kit is disclosed for forming an alcove in a rough opening for a standard door. The alcove is formed with a pair of converging side walls, disposed at an angle relative to the plane of the rough opening, which define a recessed door opening that is closed by an access door. The walls and the access door may be covered with mirrors forming a three-way mirror arrangement. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the alcove is formed with a recessed wall relative to the plane of the door opening and one or more side wall doors. In order to facilitate construction of the alcove, a construction guide is disclosed which locates the positions of the side walls used to form the alcove. The guide as well as preformed structural members allow for relatively quick and easy construction of the mirrored alcove. Mirror panels are removably mounted for allowing relatively easy replacement of damaged mirrors.
