(N.Morgan) In the age of high tech video cameras and surveillance devices knowing how to check for two way mirrors can be an essential skill to maintaining your privacy.

Have you ever been in a bathroom, dressing room or another private area with a mirror and had that feeling that someone is watching you?

You may have heard about the fingernail test but there are more accurate ways to tell if a mirror is two-way or not.

How To Detect Hidden Camera In Trial Room?

When going to court, make sure to bring your cell phone. Upon entering the trial room, make sure you are still able to make phone calls. If you can’t make a call, there is a hidden camera somewhere nearby.

The issue is due to the interference of fiber optic cable during the signal transfer.

How To Detect A 2-Way Mirror?

When we visit bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., how many of you know for sure that the seemingly innocent mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror or is actually a 2-way mirror?

How a 2 way-mirror works is basically they can see you, but you can’t see them.

There have been several cases in the last decade of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms or bathroom or bedrooms to spy on unsuspecting people.

It is nearly impossible to positively identify the surface by just looking at it. What method can be used to determine with certainty what type of mirror we are looking at?

How to Detect ‘Two way mirror’ and Stay Safe from Hidden Camera

Here’s A Simple Test

Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a gap between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a genuine mirror.

However, if your fingernail directly touches the image of your nail, then beware, it is a 2-way mirror! (There may be someone seeing you from the other side).

So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the “fingernail test.” It doesn’t cost you anything and it is simple to do and takes only a second of your time.

The reason there is a gap on a real mirror, is because the silver is on the back of the mirror under the glass.

This ensures your safety and privacy.

Whereas with a two-way mirror, the silver is on the surface.

Make sure and check every time you enter in hotel rooms,bathrooms, changing rooms, any place that might have mirrors to spy on your most intimate moments.
