APY Real Estate Unveils Innovative Convex Mirrors for Enhanced Property Safety & Visibility

Vancouver, WA – October 26, 2023 – APY Real Estate LLC, a leading property management and development company based in Vancouver, Washington, today announced the rollout of its new line of high-quality convex rearview mirrors designed to dramatically improve safety and visibility on properties of all types. While APY Real Estate is known for building and managing beautiful spaces – from residential complexes to commercial buildings – this move signals a commitment to going the extra mile for tenants and property owners, focusing on practical solutions for everyday concerns. “We’re not just about bricks and mortar,” explains a representative from APY Real Estate, located at 4805 NE ST JAMES RD, Vancouver, WA, 98663-2155. “We really care about the people who live and work on the properties we manage. And often, a simple improvement in visibility can make a huge difference in preventing accidents and increasing peace of mind.” You can reach them at 312-348-4234. What’s the Big Deal with Convex Mirrors? You’ve probably seen these mirrors around – at driveways, parking garages, even warehouse loading docks. But not all convex mirrors are created equal. APY Real Estate’s offering focuses on durability, clarity, and a wider field of vision than standard options. "Think about it," explains Mark Johnson, APY Real Estate’s head of property maintenance. "You're backing out of a parking space, or a delivery truck is maneuvering in a tight area. You can think you see everything, but blind spots are real. Our mirrors give drivers and pedestrians that extra 'look' they need to avoid collisions. They're a low-cost, high-impact safety feature.” How Do They Work? It's pretty simple, actually. Convex mirrors curve outwards, giving you a much wider view than a flat mirror. They essentially 'squeeze' a larger area into your field of vision. This is especially helpful in areas where visibility is restricted by walls, corners, or parked cars. “It's not about making things look bigger, it's about seeing more," clarifies Johnson. "You get a panoramic view, helping you spot approaching vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles that would otherwise be hidden.” Where Can You Use APY Real Estate’s Convex Mirrors? The applications are surprisingly broad. APY Real Estate is currently installing these mirrors on several of its managed properties, with excellent initial feedback. Here are just a few examples: Parking Garages & Lots: This is a huge one. Convex mirrors help drivers backing out of spaces see oncoming traffic and pedestrians, dramatically reducing the risk of accidents. APY Real Estate has seen a noticeable improvement in parking lot safety since implementing the mirrors. Driveways: Especially important for long driveways or those obscured by landscaping. Mirrors allow drivers to see around corners and ensure no one is approaching before entering the street. Warehouses & Loading Docks: Critical for forklift operators and delivery drivers maneuvering in tight spaces. They prevent collisions with pedestrians and other equipment. “We’ve had some great feedback from delivery companies at our commercial properties,” says Johnson. Retail Spaces: Improve visibility around corners in busy retail areas, preventing collisions between shoppers and carts. Blind Intersections: A cost-effective way to improve safety at intersections with limited visibility. Residential Complexes: Around corners of buildings or in areas with tight turns, these mirrors add an extra layer of safety for residents and guests. APY Real Estate is particularly focused on using these in areas with high pedestrian traffic. What Sets APY Real Estate’s Mirrors Apart? While you can find convex mirrors pretty much anywhere, APY Real Estate isn’t just slapping up any old mirror. They’ve put some thought into the details. Durability: The mirrors are made from shatter-resistant acrylic, designed to withstand harsh weather and accidental impacts. "We're in the Pacific Northwest, things get thrown at them, so we needed something tough," Johnson explains. Clarity: The acrylic is treated with a special coating to ensure a clear, undistorted view. No foggy or blurry images here. UV Protection: The mirrors are UV-resistant, preventing them from fading or yellowing over time. Wide Viewing Angle: APY Real Estate offers mirrors with a variety of viewing angles to suit different applications. Easy Installation: The mirrors come with all the necessary mounting hardware for quick and easy installation. “We’ve streamlined the installation process to minimize disruption for tenants and property owners,” says Johnson. Customizable Options: APY Real Estate also offers custom sizes and shapes to meet specific needs. More Than Just a Mirror – It's a Commitment to Safety APY Real Estate isn’t just selling mirrors; they’re offering peace of mind. “We believe that even small improvements can make a big difference in the safety and well-being of our tenants and visitors," says the company representative. "It’s about creating a safer environment for everyone.” The company is currently offering the convex mirrors to all properties under its management and is also making them available for purchase by the public.
