My mother has a triple pane dressing-table mirror, but none of the hinges are tight enough to hold the mirrors in the position she sets them. Is there any 'glue' that would stiffen them up? I'm thinking of something like Loctite (but not Loctite, IYSWIM). The side panes hinge on normal hinges about vertical axes. The centre pane rotates on a horizontal axis on swivels. It would help if the swivels were positioned mid-way up the pane, so that when it was tilted, the resulting couple would be near zero, but they're about two-thirds of the way up, so the mirror always tends to hang exactly vertical. It could be changed, but I'd rather find some hinge-stiffener for all three panes, if such exists.
