Nickel Finish Soft-Close Hinge for Full Overlay Doors on Any Cabinet Type

The Blum CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge brings integrated soft-close and INSERTA toolless mounting to full overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, finished in nickel for a clean, lasting look inside the box.

Key Features

• BLUMOTION integrated soft-close damps the door over its final closing arc so it settles quietly every time.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving only a narrow reveal.
• INSERTA toolless plate mounting presses the base plate straight into pre-drilled 5mm system holes, no plate screws needed.
• Clip-on arm engagement snaps the hinge onto the mounted plate without tools and releases the same way.
• Three-way adjustment dials height, side, and depth after the door is hung so reveals stay even as cabinets settle.
• Nickel finish on steel construction holds up to the daily contact of a working cabinet interior.

Full Overlay Doors, Both Cabinet Types

Full overlay is the geometry where a single door covers nearly the whole cabinet side, with only a slim gap separating it from adjacent doors or the cabinet edge. This hinge is built precisely for that position, using a straight arm that places the door at the correct overlay relative to the panel or frame. It suits both frameless boxes built on the 32mm system and traditional face-frame cabinets, so a single order covers a mixed job without specifying two separate hinges.

The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door at a 13mm depth. The hinge arm then clips to a Blum base plate mounted on the cabinet. That plate is a separate purchase, matched to your cabinet construction and the door position you are working with. Blum plates are Blum-specific, so pair this hinge with a plate from the same family.

Nickel Finish and a Build That Holds Up

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish. Inside a cabinet, the finish is a practical choice: nickel reads as neutral hardware that does not draw attention when a door is open, and the steel construction handles the repetitive motion of a kitchen or bath without fatigue. BLUMOTION soft-close earns its keep here, too. Taking the impact out of daily closing protects door faces, drawer fronts next to the cabinet, and the hinge itself over years of use. INSERTA mounting reinforces a solid connection at the plate, pressing into the cabinet's pre-drilled 5mm system holes for a fit that does not back out over time.

Where This Hinge Fits the Job

This is a reliable everyday hinge for cabinet shops running production kitchens and baths, contractors fitting out multi-unit projects, and designers who want consistent soft-close performance across a full run of doors. INSERTA mounting is fastest on 32mm system cabinets with the 5mm holes already bored. For a box without those holes, the screw-on plate version of this hinge is the better call. Doors should be in the standard 16 to 22mm thickness range. For doors over 22mm, a thick-door hinge is the right tool.

Quiet Doors, Clean Finish, Job Done

Specify this hinge when the project calls for full overlay doors that close without a sound, mount without screws, and carry a finish that stays neutral inside the box.
