Why elevators have mirrors in them?

971 views

Almost every elevator I’ve been in has a mirror inside. Exceptions are paternoster or technical elevators.

Does it reduce claustrophobia? Does it make the space look bigger? Does it entertain passengers?

People in elevators face the door. It’s basically taboo in an elevator to turn around. The mirror allows you to see the person behind you without turning around.
