This is a trade box containing 100 Blum CLIP top BLUMOTION hinges, designed for overlay cabinet doors in your kitchen. Each hinge includes Blum's integrated soft-close mechanism and comes with matching steel mounting plates and all necessary screws.
Where It Fits
These hinges work with overlay doors, where the door sits over the front edge of the cabinet frame. The 110° opening angle makes them suitable for most kitchen situations, including corner cabinets where you need the door to open wide enough to access the full interior.
How It Works
The BLUMOTION mechanism is built into each hinge, so your doors close gently and silently without slamming. You'll feel the soft-close engage in the final few centimetres of closing. The CLIP system means the hinges attach to pre-installed mounting plates, making door removal straightforward when needed.
Why It Matters
Soft-close hinges protect your cabinet doors and frames from the daily impact of closing, while eliminating the sharp bang of doors slamming shut. This becomes particularly valuable in busy kitchens where multiple people are opening and closing doors throughout the day.
Design Consideration
These hinges suit door thicknesses from 16mm to 26mm, covering most kitchen door specifications. The nickel finish works well with contemporary hardware, though it will be visible when doors are open. If you prefer concealed hinges or have very thick doors outside this range, alternative solutions would be more appropriate.
Build Quality
Blum's steel construction and integrated damping mechanism are engineered for daily use. The three-way adjustment allows fine-tuning of door alignment both during installation and over time. Each hinge carries Blum's lifetime guarantee.
Options
The mounting plates can be specified as standard steel plates or Expando plates, depending on your cabinet construction. Boss spacers are available if needed for specific installation requirements.
Closing Guidance
This trade box format makes sense for complete kitchen projects where consistency across all doors matters. The quantity and integrated soft-close make it suitable for medium to large kitchens where door operation will be frequent and needs to be reliably quiet.
