Nickel Finish And A Perfect Fit For Angled Cabinets

This Blum CLIP top II hinge is built for cabinet doors on a 45-degree outward angle, delivering full overlay geometry, self-close action, and INSERTA tool-free mounting in a nickel steel finish, on both frameless and face-frame cabinets.

Key Features

• +45 degree cabinet angle matches doors set on an outward diagonal, such as bay and angled cabinet configurations.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side with a narrow reveal.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut over the last few degrees of travel.
• INSERTA tool-free plate mounting presses the base plate into pre-drilled 5mm system holes without screws.
• 110 degree opening gives full everyday access at the angled cabinet position.
• Three-way cam adjustment brings doors back to an even reveal after installation.

Hanging Doors on a 45-Degree Outward Cabinet

Bay-style and angled kitchen cabinets introduce a corner geometry that a standard straight hinge cannot resolve cleanly. This hinge is engineered for the positive 45-degree cabinet angle, where the cabinet side faces outward rather than straight forward, so the door swings clear and sits true to the angled opening. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door at the standard depth, and the arm clips to a Blum base plate mounted to the cabinet. That plate is sold separately and must be a Blum plate matched to the cabinet construction. INSERTA means the plate presses into the cabinet's pre-drilled 5mm system holes without reaching for a screwdriver.

Steel Construction In A Nickel Finish

The hinge is plated steel with a nickel finish that coordinates with pulls, knobs, and other visible hardware in silver-tone metal. On an angled cabinet, the hinge face is more visible than it would be on a flush-front box, so the clean nickel surface holds its place in the design. The arm carries depth, height, and side cam adjustments, each with a narrow tolerance range suited to precise door fitting on an angled run. The self-close spring closes the door reliably without a damper, which keeps the mechanism straightforward and serviceable.

Who Reaches For This Hinge

Cabinet shops specifying a bay or diagonal section in a kitchen run will recognize this as the Blum CLIP top solution for that corner. Contractors on a remodel that includes an angled upper or base cabinet need a hinge that fits the geometry without a workaround. Designers specifying a handle-less or minimal-hardware look on an angled cabinet will find the concealed profile keeps the diagonal face clean. This hinge works on both frameless and face-frame boxes at the +45 degree position. For a standard 90-degree cabinet, the straight CLIP top line is the right choice. For a soft, damped close instead of a spring pull, the BLUMOTION version of this angled hinge is the one to specify.
