The 95° CLIP top BLUMOTION angled hinge is Blum's solution for cabinet doors that sit at angles rather than perfectly vertical. These hinges work with cabinets angled anywhere from -50° to +50°, making them essential for corner units, sloped ceiling installations, or any kitchen where your cabinets need to follow non-standard angles.
Where It Fits
You'll find these hinges in corner base units where doors meet at angles, under sloped ceilings where wall cabinets follow the roofline, or in custom installations where your kitchen works around architectural features. They're particularly valuable in loft conversions or period properties where walls aren't perfectly square.
How It Works
The hinge opens to 95°, giving you good access inside angled cabinets. Blum's BLUMOTION soft-close technology is built directly into the hinge boss, so there are no separate dampers to fit or maintain. The mechanism adapts automatically to your door's weight and the force you use when closing, giving the same gentle, controlled close whether you push firmly or barely touch the door.
Why It Matters
Angled cabinets can be awkward to use, but these hinges make the doors behave exactly like those on your standard cabinets. The soft-close function means doors won't slam shut even when you're reaching into tight corner spaces. The consistent closing action across all your doors, regardless of their angle, gives your kitchen a cohesive feel.
Design Consideration
These hinges are specifically engineered for angled applications, so they're not interchangeable with standard hinges. The soft-close feature can be deactivated if needed, which is sometimes useful for very light doors where the mechanism might feel too strong. You'll need to specify the exact angle of your cabinets, as the hinge needs to match your installation precisely.
Build Quality
Made from steel with a nickel finish, these hinges use the same precision engineering as Blum's standard range. The BLUMOTION technology is integrated rather than added on, which means fewer wear points and more reliable long-term performance. The three-dimensional adjustment allows fine-tuning of side position, height, and depth to ensure perfect door alignment.
Options
The hinges accommodate door thicknesses from 16mm to 24mm and work with Blum's CLIP mounting plate system. Adjustment ranges are +3mm/-2mm for depth, ±3mm for height, and ±2mm for side positioning. They come with a lifetime guarantee and require separate mounting plates for installation.
If your kitchen includes angled cabinets, these hinges ensure they work as smoothly and quietly as the rest of your doors. The key is matching the hinge angle precisely to your cabinet angle for optimal performance.
