Nickel Concealed Hinge for Half Overlay Doors with a Wide 120-Degree Swing

This Blum CLIP top hinge is built for half overlay doors on face-frame and frameless cabinets, combining a wider-than-standard 120-degree opening angle with self-close action and screw-on mounting in a nickel finish.

Key Features

• 120-degree opening angle swings the door back farther than the standard 110-degree hinge, improving access to the cabinet interior.
• Half overlay half-crank arm positions two doors that share a center partition, each overlapping the panel edge by about half.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut over the last few degrees of travel.
• Screw-on mounting fastens directly to the cabinet side or face-frame stile without requiring pre-drilled system holes.
• Three-way adjustment dials height, side, and depth after hanging so doors sit square and gaps are even.
• Nickel finish on steel coordinates with brushed hardware across the same cabinet run.

More Swing Where Partial Overlay Doors Meet

Half overlay is the configuration for two doors sharing a single partition: each door covers roughly half the panel edge, and the half-crank arm geometry is what makes that spacing work without the arms colliding. The 120-degree opening goes a step beyond the everyday 110-degree swing, pulling the door back far enough that the interior opening is less obstructed, which matters on narrow wall cabinets and pantry boxes where every inch of clearance counts. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the hinge arm connects to a base plate mounted on the cabinet. That base plate is a separate, brand-specific purchase matched to your cabinet construction.

Steel Build With a Finish That Coordinates

The hinge is plated steel in a nickel finish. On a face-frame run, nickel reads as a quiet, neutral tone that matches brushed bar pulls, hinges, and slide hardware without competing with the door color. The screw-on connection is the strongest mechanical option in the Blum CLIP top line: it lands direct fasteners into the cabinet side or stile rather than relying on system holes, which makes it the right call on custom face-frame work, on cabinets built without a 32mm hole pattern, or anywhere a contractor wants screws in solid wood rather than a dowel or clip.

Where This Hinge Fits the Job

This hinge suits two distinct situations. First, any partial-overlay door run on face-frame or frameless cabinets where an extra degree of swing is worth specifying, such as a pantry, a tall utility cabinet, or a bank of wall boxes in a tight kitchen where the standard 110-degree stop is just short of clearing the door fully. Second, installs on cabinets without pre-drilled 5mm system holes, where screw-on is the only reliable plate-mounting route. Cabinet shops doing custom face-frame work and contractors replacing hinges in existing boxes where the hole pattern is unknown will both reach for the screw-on version over the INSERTA or EXPANDO alternatives. For doors thicker than 22mm, a thick-door hinge is the right pick. And if the project calls for a cushioned, quiet close rather than a spring pull, the BLUMOTION soft-close version of this series is the upgrade to quote.
