This Blum CLIP top hinge opens full overlay doors to 120 degrees, with dowel mounting into the door and a self-close spring that pulls the door shut on face-frame and frameless cabinets alike.
Most concealed hinges stop at 110 degrees, which covers everyday access well. This hinge opens to 120 degrees, a difference that matters in specific situations: lower base cabinets where a door swings close to an adjacent wall, narrow galley kitchens where every inch of clearance counts, or deeper upper cabinets where a wider swing makes items in the back reachable without reaching around the door. The full overlay geometry keeps the door positioned squarely over the cabinet side, and the self-close spring handles the return so the door does not drift open. The 35mm cup seats in the bored door pocket, and the arm clips to a Blum base plate mounted to the cabinet, which is a separate purchase matched to your cabinet construction and desired overlay.
The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish, a neutral tone that works in painted, stained, and mixed-finish kitchens without drawing attention. Because this is a concealed hinge, the finish is only visible from inside the cabinet when the door is open, but it still matters in open-shelf designs and in jobs where a consistent hardware finish runs throughout. The nickel is a distinct finish designation, separate from Blum's ONYX BLACK line, so keep accessories in the same finish family when ordering cover caps or other visible pieces.
The dowel-mount cup is built for CNC shops and production lines where doors are pre-bored with 8mm dowel holes. No cup screws, no driver needed at the door: the cup presses in and locks. That matters on high-volume runs where installation speed per door adds up. This hinge is also a solid choice for renovation work on existing face-frame cabinets where the wider opening angle helps in rooms with tight layouts. It suits standard doors in the 16 to 22mm thickness range on either frameless or face-frame cabinets. For doors outside that window, match the hinge to the correct door thickness series.
At 120 degrees this hinge is self-close, meaning a spring pulls the door shut. Soft-close (a damped, cushioned close) is not integrated at this opening angle. If a quiet, cushioned close is a priority, the 110 degree CLIP top BLUMOTION version is the appropriate choice.
No. The arm clips to a separate Blum base plate that mounts to the cabinet, and that plate is sold separately. Choose a plate matched to your cabinet type, frameless or face-frame, and the door position you need.
The cup carries pre-attached dowels that press into 8mm holes bored in the door, so no screws hold the cup in place. This is the standard CNC and production method. If your doors are drilled for screw-on cups rather than dowel holes, use the screw-on version of this hinge instead.
Yes. The hinge body works on both. The base plate you choose determines which cabinet type it mounts to, so match the plate to the cabinet construction.
When the layout calls for a wider swing and a door that closes on its own, this nickel Blum CLIP top hinge gives you that combination on full overlay doors across face-frame and frameless cabinets.
