ONYX BLACK Soft-Close Hinge for Full Overlay Doors

This Blum CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge brings full overlay geometry and integrated soft-close to both frameless and face-frame cabinets, finished in ONYX BLACK for a bold, dark look that holds against the hardware around it.

Key Features

• ONYX BLACK finish delivers a consistent dark surface that pairs cleanly with black pulls, knobs, and other visible hardware.
• BLUMOTION soft-close damps the door over the final closing arc so it settles quietly without impact.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving only a narrow reveal.
• 110 degree opening provides the standard everyday swing for access on residential and commercial cabinets alike.
• Screw-on mounting fastens directly to the cabinet without requiring pre-drilled 5mm system holes.
• Three-way adjustment dials height, side, and depth after installation to square up the reveal.

A Finished Look That Holds the Dark Hardware Theme

The ONYX BLACK finish is the right call when the rest of the hardware on the job is dark. Black drawer slides, black pulls, black knobs all share a visual register, and a nickel or stainless hinge visible in a gap breaks that register the moment a drawer opens. This hinge keeps the concealed hardware consistent with what shows. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the arm connects to a Blum base plate on the cabinet, ordered separately. That plate is screw-on, which means it threads into the cabinet side directly, no pre-drilled 5mm system holes required. The hinge works on both frameless and face-frame cabinets when paired with the matching Blum plate for each cabinet type.

Steel Construction and Controlled Close

The hinge is steel in an ONYX BLACK finish. Two things define its daily performance: BLUMOTION soft-close and three-way adjustment. BLUMOTION engages over the last few degrees of travel, taking the impact out of closing so the door settles instead of slamming. Three-way adjustment, covering height, side, and depth, lets an installer bring doors back into alignment as the cabinets settle over time. Because this is the screw-on version, the plate holds through a conventional wood-screw connection, which suits cabinets without the 32mm system boring or where a more traditional mechanical connection is preferred.

Where This Hinge Fits Best

This is the right hinge for cabinetry projects where the hardware finish is black or near-black throughout. Kitchen remodels, bath vanities, and built-in entertainment units where the pulls and knobs are already specified in a dark finish benefit from carrying that choice into the concealed hardware. It suits cabinet shops running production in black hardware packages, contractors installing in high-end residential kitchens, and designers specifying a monochromatic hardware palette. Because the mount is screw-on rather than INSERTA, it also suits custom and semi-custom shops working with cabinets that are not line-bored on a 32mm grid. For door thickness, keep to the standard 16 to 22mm range; for thicker doors, a thick-door hinge is the right match. Note that the ONYX BLACK finish is specific to this color family and accessories in this finish are not interchangeable with nickel or stainless versions.
