Compact 33 Edge Mount Mounting Plate, Nickel-Plated, Screw-On, 1-1/8" Overlay
Description
Compact 33 Edge Mount Mounting Plate Purpose
Compact 33 edge mount mounting plate from Blum, Inc. is a hinge mounting plate designed for Compact 33 applications where you need a stable base to mount the hinge arm to the cabinet. The edge mount design supports mounting to the front edge area, which helps when laying out hinges on face frame constructions that call for this style of plate. Nickel-plated finish provides a treated surface on the plate, which supports a consistent appearance with other nickel hinge components in the run. The plate is screw-on, so it is intended for direct screw fastening to the cabinet, giving you a familiar installation method with standard tools. The 1-1/8 inch overlay specification defines how far the door edge overlaps the cabinet front, which lets you match this plate to face frame layouts calling for that overlay.
Key Details That Support Cabinet Hinge Layout
- The Compact 33 edge mount design focuses the mounting at the cabinet edge, which helps you position the hinge plate on face frames that require this mounting geometry and keeps your layout consistent along the frame.
- The nickel-plated surface on the mounting plate provides a treated metal finish, which helps the plate visually coordinate with nickel-finished Blum hinge arms across a cabinet run for a unified look.
- The screw-on style means the plate is fastened with screws through the plate into the cabinet, which works with standard drilling and fastening routines already used on many hinge installations.
- The 1-1/8 inch overlay rating defines the intended door overlay dimension, which helps you select this plate when your door and frame design are set up for that specific overlay requirement.
- The hinge mounting plate classification places this part in the hinge base plate family, which helps you pair it with matching Blum Compact 33 hinge components in the same system.
Edge Mount Plate Details For Installation
The Compact 33 edge mount mounting plate uses an edge-focused geometry, so it is oriented for mounting at the cabinet front edge where the hinge arm will connect. The screw-on attachment method means the installer fastens through the plate into the cabinet using screws suited to the cabinet material. The 1-1/8 inch overlay specification tells you the plate is meant for door applications where the door covers 1-1/8 inch of the cabinet front, which guides your drilling pattern and hinge placement on the door stile. The nickel-plated finish on the plate matches typical nickel hinge arms, which helps when aligning multiple hinges on a visible cabinet face and aiming for a consistent hardware appearance.
Using This Hinge Mounting Plate In Work
Where This Blum Compact 33 Plate Fits Best
This Blum, Inc. Compact 33 edge mount mounting plate is intended for hinge work where you use Compact 33 components and need an edge-mounted base plate. The edge mount style suits face frame or similar front constructions where the plate positions near the outer frame edge. As a hinge mounting plate, it serves as the connection point between the cabinet structure and the Compact 33 hinge arm, so it sits at the core of the hinge system layout. The 1-1/8 inch overlay spec means it is suited to doors designed to overlap the cabinet front by that amount, giving you a plate option aligned to that overlay in your project planning.
Details That Help Repeatable Overlay And Alignment
The 1-1/8 inch overlay value on this Compact 33 screw-on hinge plate sets a defined relationship between the plate position and the final door coverage, which supports repeatable hinge runs across multiple openings built to that overlay. The screw-on configuration allows the plate to be positioned and fastened using standard screw locations, which supports predictable drilling jigs or templates in a production or shop setting. The nickel-plated finish keeps the visible metal components consistent where the plate may be seen in certain cabinet interiors, helping align aesthetics with other nickel-plated hinge hardware. Because this part is a hinge mounting plate from the Blum Compact 33 family, it allows the installer to maintain a single system of related components, which simplifies hinge planning when using Compact 33 hinges across a job.
