It can be. While not all smart glass comes soundproof, you can buy smart glass made specifically to be soundproof.

While finding your mirror cracked can be spooky, there are actually many logical and common reasons why this happens. First, the mirror may have been mounted unevenly in the first place. Over time, poor mounting leads to stress points that will eventually cause a mirror to crack. Other common causes of a mirror spontaneously cracking include dramatic temperature shifts, strong thunder or a loud crash somewhere in the distance, exposure to heat and sunlight, and an uneven wall in your home. It's also possible that your mirror had a manufacturing defect or microscopic cracks that occurred during glass cutting or handling that eventually caused it to shatter.

Yes, replacing only the glass in a double-pane window is possible, but you’ll need to hire a window repair professional to tackle this task. Your window repair technician will cut the seal around the existing glass, remove it, install new glass, and create a vacuum between the new panes to fill with insulative gas. This process will restore the energy efficiency of your window while keeping your costs as low as possible. It’s almost always more affordable to undergo this window repair process rather than replace the entire frame along with the glass.

Just how long it takes to install a wall mirror depends on the size of your wall, the type of mirror, the installation method, whether you decide to hire a professional, and the number of installers. For smaller walls with multiple trained professionals and acrylic mirror sheets, you can anticipate having your wall finished within an hour. Larger walls comprised of several custom mirrors can take upward of four hours to complete.
