See the Full LineupWhy Texas Bathrooms Need Their Own Rules
Between Houston humidity thick enough to fog a mirror before you've finished showering, and primary suites out in the Hill Country built with room to spare, a Texas bathroom asks more of a medicine cabinet than most. You need real anti-fog performance, sizing options that scale up to a genuinely wide double vanity, and hardware — hinges, frames, shelves — built to hold up over a long, humid summer. Below is TETOTE's full medicine cabinet lineup, plus the sizing math and install steps to get it done right the first time.

How to Install Your Medicine Cabinet
Recessed Mount
Flush, built-in look — needs wall depthFind studs, mark the opening
Locate studs, then trace the cabinet's rough opening between them wherever your width allows.
Check the cavity before cutting
Drill an inspection hole and check for pipes, ducts, or wiring. Don't proceed if you find any.
Cut, dry-fit, and level
Cut the opening, dry-fit the box, shim any gaps, then level and screw into the studs — never drywall alone.
Hang the door and caulk
Attach the mirrored door, adjust soft-close tension, and caulk the gap between frame and wall for a finished look.
Surface Mount
No cutting — mounts like a heavy mirrorMark height and centerline
Center the mirror between 60"–66" from the floor, adjusted for your household's height.
Find studs or use rated anchors
Screw into studs where you can; use anchors rated for the cabinet's loaded weight where you can't.
Mount the bracket, hang the cabinet
Secure the bracket level, then hang the cabinet with a helper supporting the bottom until it's seated.
Level and add the second fastening point
Check level, then add the lower screw point most models include to stop the cabinet swinging when the door opens.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size cabinet fits a 60-inch double sink vanity?
Go with two 20–26 inch cabinets, one centered over each sink, or one wide 50–54 inch cabinet spanning the vanity — both work well depending on whether you want individual grooming space per person.
Does Texas humidity mean I need anti-fog more than other states?
It certainly doesn't hurt to have it — Gulf Coast humidity and long, hot summers make a fast-clearing anti-fog mirror a genuinely useful feature rather than a nice-to-have extra.
Recessed or surface mount for a new-build Texas home?
If you're framing walls during new construction, recessed gives the cleanest built-in look. For an existing home or a faster weekend project, surface mount avoids cutting into a finished wall entirely.
Do I need an electrician for the LED cabinets?
Only if you're running new wiring or adding an outlet. If there's already a switched receptacle near the install spot, most homeowners can complete the plug-in connection themselves.
