Thanks for that..The Mirror looks like it's been bonded to 1 & 1/4 door stock. Take a close look at the three panels of mirror in the clip. Notice the floor levelers are quite extended. If this thing was actually level when it was standing, the floor must have been of cobblestone!Now look at the so called rubber bumper...that's not a step...just a rather thin bumper, probably there to prevent damage from a floor buffer. I'm going to make an educated guess, either that Tri Fold was never anchored to the wall to begin with or if it was anchored, they are going to find the shield and screw used was totally inadequate for that amount of weight. If I'm right about this, I'm guessing the extended levelers made an already unstable design, not properly secured to a stud...lethal.
