Nickel Finish Angled Hinge for Full Overlay Doors on 20-Degree Cabinets

This Blum CLIP top hinge is built for cabinet boxes set at a +20 degree outward angle, hanging full overlay doors with self-close on both face-frame and frameless construction, with INSERTA toolless plate mounting.

Key Features

• +20 degree cabinet angle geometry matches cabinets angled outward, such as diagonal corner and bay configurations.
• Full overlay arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving a narrow reveal.
• Self-close spring draws the door shut automatically over the last few degrees of travel.
• INSERTA toolless plate mounting presses the base plate into pre-drilled 5mm system holes without plate screws.
• Three-way adjustment dials in height, side, and depth after installation to align doors precisely.
• Nickel finish on plated steel provides a clean, neutral appearance suited to a range of hardware schemes.

Where the +20 Degree Geometry Does Its Work

A standard concealed hinge is built for a cabinet face sitting perpendicular to the wall. When the cabinet is angled outward at 20 degrees, as it is on a diagonal corner base, an appliance bay, or an angled accent run, a standard arm geometry puts the door out of square. The +20 degree angle built into this hinge corrects for that offset so the door sits flush and swings clear without binding. The 35mm cup bores into the door in the usual way, and the arm clips to a Blum base plate on the cabinet, which is ordered separately. For face-frame cabinets, use a face-frame plate; for frameless boxes, use the matching frameless plate. Plates are Blum-specific and are not interchangeable with other brands.

Steel, Nickel, and a Spring That Closes Every Time

The hinge body is plated steel in a nickel finish, a neutral tone that reads well alongside satin nickel pulls and bar handles without demanding an exact match. The self-close spring engages near the end of the closing arc and pulls the door home reliably. This is not a soft-close hinge: the spring closes the door with a positive click rather than a cushioned settle. The 95 degree opening angle reflects the angled geometry. On a 20 degree cabinet, this is the designed swing, giving clean access while keeping the door clear of adjacent runs.

Who Reaches for This Hinge

Cabinet shops building diagonal corner boxes and contractors installing angled accent runs are the primary buyers. The INSERTA plate mounting keeps the install moving on production frameless boxes with 5mm system holes already bored. For face-frame work on angled cabinets, confirm the plate style matches the stile and desired overlay before ordering. The three-way adjustment handles the fine-tuning once doors are hung, which matters on angled runs where cumulative alignment errors are more visible than on a straight cabinet line. Standard doors in the 16 to 22mm thickness range are the right match for this hinge.

Angled Cabinets, Doors That Line Up

When the cabinet breaks from the wall at 20 degrees, this hinge is what keeps the door square, the close consistent, and the install clean across the whole run.
