There is a partition between the bedroom and living room on the slide side. The sliding door is anchored on this partition. Until yesterday there was a full length mirror covering the living room side of this partition. Leveling jacks tweaked the mirror enough to crack it in several places. Was this mirror standard equipment on a 2552? Videos and HWH literature say frame distortion is not supposed to happen, BUT. So, if you don’t have a mirror in this location, what material do you have that covers the partition? We have cherry cabinets and plank floor. I’m thinking a thin plywood sheet with some type of contrasting vinyl. There is a narrow trim piece that framed the mirror. What say you. Today will be spent scraping mirror fragments off the wall.

Op, second try on this. Removed some of the shards of mirror and found a thin luan covered with a cherry vinyl underneath. Might just cut off square(top 12” shattered) and try to salvage the rest. This mirror was 21x74”.

Mirror was not standard

Do you have Liquid Springs? I read here reasonly that you need to power off the LS before you use the hydraulic leveling system or they will work against each other and could twist the frame. I have both and was never told this and did not have a issue that I know of but will definitely be powering off the LS in the future.

We had our mirror come down and shatter a couple years ago on our 2700. It was mounted to the back of the bathroom door, glued and screwed, and appeared to be factory installed. And it happened
after we had pulled off to have lunch, and had been sitting for a while. So, really can't blame it on our jacks, probably just wear and tear over the years, from the general jolting that goes on, who knows ?
Decided we needed a towel bar there more than a full length mirror, and that has worked out well. Saved some weight too.

I've never seen a mirror placed there on another 2552. There was/is a small one next to the stove on the wall that was standard. We had it left off.

Mirror not standard. You may be able to purchase matching stick on vinyl from Phoenix to recover that area... Assuming you have the skills so you don't glue yourself to the wall like I would. I believe it's like "Contact" paper.
