95° CLIP top BLUMOTION Blind Corner Hinge

This is Blum's solution for blind corner cabinets, where a door needs to open at 95 degrees rather than the usual 110 degrees. The L-shaped design connects your corner cabinet door to a blanking panel, creating a continuous surface when closed while allowing the door to clear the adjacent cabinet when opened.

Where It Fits

You'll find this hinge on corner base units where space is tight and a standard hinge would cause the door to clash with the neighbouring cabinet. It's particularly useful in galley kitchens or where you're working within existing structural constraints that limit door swing.

How It Works

The hinge opens to exactly 95 degrees, giving you access to the cabinet interior while preventing the door from hitting adjacent units. The integrated soft-close mechanism adapts to your door's weight and the force you use to close it, so every closure feels controlled and quiet.

Why It Matters

In corner situations, every degree of opening angle matters. This hinge gives you the maximum access possible within the constraints of your kitchen layout. The soft-close function means you can push the door firmly without worrying about noise or impact, particularly helpful when the corner cabinet holds heavy items like pots or small appliances.

Design Consideration

The 95-degree opening angle is specifically designed for tight corner situations. If your corner has more clearance, a standard 110-degree hinge might give you better access to the cabinet interior. The blanking panel connection also means this hinge creates a particular visual effect when closed, which works well in handleless designs but may look unusual in traditional kitchens.

Build Quality

The steel construction and nickel finish provide long-term durability. Blum integrates the soft-close mechanism directly into the hinge boss rather than adding it as a separate component, which reduces wear points and maintains consistent performance. The hinge includes full three-dimensional adjustment, so your installer can fine-tune the door position precisely.

Installation Requirements

This hinge requires a specific mounting plate, which is sold separately. Your doors need to be between 16mm and 32mm thick to accommodate the hinge mechanism properly.

Closing Guidance

Consider this hinge when your corner cabinet design demands the 95-degree opening angle, but remember that it will change how the corner looks and functions compared to standard door arrangements. Your kitchen designer can help you understand whether this solution fits your specific corner situation and daily use patterns.
