ONYX BLACK Finish And Full Overlay Fit

This Blum CLIP top hinge brings BLUMOTION soft-close and full overlay geometry to both frameless and face-frame cabinets, finished in ONYX BLACK for installations where the hardware stays visible or coordinates with dark pulls and handles.

Key Features

• ONYX BLACK finish gives the hinge arm a consistent dark appearance for design-forward or handle-free cabinet interiors.
• BLUMOTION soft-close damps the door over the final degrees of closing so it settles quietly without slamming.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving a narrow reveal.
• INSERTA toolless plate mount presses the base plate into pre-drilled 5mm system holes with no screws needed at the plate.
• Clip-on arm engagement attaches and releases the door without tools, with three-way adjustment for height, side, and depth.
• 110 degree opening angle provides the standard everyday swing for full cabinet access.

Where the ONYX Finish Does Its Work

Dark cabinetry, matte black pulls, and handle-less fronts all share one expectation: hardware that does not break the color story. The ONYX BLACK hinge arm stays consistent inside the cabinet whether the door is open or closed, so a carefully specified interior holds its look. This hinge mounts to a Blum base plate on the cabinet, ordered separately, and the 35mm cup bores into the back of the door. It works on both frameless boxes and face-frame cabinets, making it a practical single-SKU choice on mixed-construction projects where the finish spec is non-negotiable.

Steel Build With BLUMOTION Damping

The hinge body is steel finished in ONYX BLACK. Pair the finish spec with a practical note: the BLUMOTION damper is integrated into the hinge, not an add-on clip, so there is nothing extra to install and nothing to rattle loose over time. Three-way adjustment handles the settle that happens as cabinets are loaded and the structure finds its final position. Height, side, and depth each move independently, so bringing a run of dark doors to an even reveal is a matter of a few turns at the cam, not a re-hang.

Who Reaches for This Hinge

Designers specifying a black hardware package will find this hinge the cleanest way to carry the finish from the pulls to the hinge arm. Cabinet shops fitting dark-finish kitchens, entertainment centers, or office built-ins can run this hinge across the job and keep the ONYX BLACK consistent throughout. INSERTA mounting is built around the 32mm system, so it needs cabinets with pre-drilled 5mm system holes. On a box without them, the screw-on plate version is the right substitute. Standard doors in the 16 to 22mm range are the fit here; doors thicker than 22mm need a thick-door hinge instead. Note that ONYX BLACK accessories, including the matching base plates, are specific to the black finish line and are not interchangeable with nickel versions.
