This Blum CLIP top hinge opens full overlay doors to 120 degrees on frameless and face-frame cabinets, with INSERTA tool-free plate mounting and a self-close spring, finished in nickel.
Ten more degrees beyond a standard 110-degree hinge is a real difference when a door would otherwise block part of a drawer, a pull-out shelf, or a corner run. This hinge suits base cabinets with wide drawers, pantry doors that open against an adjacent wall, and any upper cabinet where the door needs to fold back far enough to clear a built-in appliance or shelf. On a face-frame build it works the same as on a frameless box, so it fits both cabinet types without a different part. The 35mm cup bores into the door, and the arm clips to a base plate on the cabinet ordered separately. Match the Blum plate to your cabinet construction and the door position you need.
The hinge is plated steel in a nickel finish, a neutral tone that holds up in kitchens and bath builds where hardware stays visible over years of use. The self-close spring draws the door shut from roughly 15 degrees open, so it does not stay ajar on its own. That is the right mechanism for builders and homeowners who want automatic closing without a damped cushion. For projects where a quiet, slowed close matters more than a spring pull, the BLUMOTION soft-close version is the comparison to make at spec time. This hinge is the self-close choice at the 120-degree opening angle.
Cabinet shops running production lines on the 32mm system will find INSERTA mounting the fastest path: the plate presses into the cabinet's 5mm system holes with no screws, and the arm clips on after the door is fitted. Contractors and remodelers get the same benefit on any frameless or face-frame box that carries system holes. For boxes without pre-drilled 5mm holes, the screw-on plate version handles the install. The 120-degree swing is for jobs where standard access is not quite enough, not as a default replacement for the 110-degree hinge on every cabinet in a run.
No. The hinge arm clips to a base plate that mounts to the cabinet, and the plate is a separate purchase. Use a Blum plate matched to your cabinet type and door position. Plates from other brands will not connect to this hinge.
This hinge is self-close: a spring pulls the door shut over the last few degrees but does not slow or cushion the motion. Soft-close uses a damper to slow the door so it settles quietly. If a damped close is the goal, look at the BLUMOTION version in this series.
INSERTA presses into pre-drilled 5mm system holes, so it requires a cabinet built on the 32mm system with those holes present. If the cabinet does not have them, use the screw-on plate version instead.
Yes. The hinge is rated for both cabinet types. The base plate you select determines how it mounts to the specific cabinet construction.
Specify this hinge when a door needs to open past the standard angle, close on its own, and sit at a full overlay in a nickel finish that matches across the hardware package.
