About this hinge

This is a Blum Clip Top concealed hinge with a 110 degree opening, with a self closing spring that pulls the door shut from the last part of its travel. Concealed hinges like part 71T3550 are what frameless cabinets use: the cup goes in the door, the arm clips to a plate on the cabinet, and the door is adjusted from the hinge after it is hung, sold each.

Cabinet and overlay

Part 71T3550: Full overlay means the door covers the cabinet side or partition almost completely, the usual choice for frameless cabinets with one door per side panel. This 110 degree Clip Top hinge is the full overlay version, built for frameless cabinets, on a Clip wing or in-line mounting plate. Door boring for this Clip Top is the 45mm pattern. Plates for part 71T3550 are sold separately by height in cabinet hinges; the plate, not the hinge, is what sets the reveal. If you want soft close on this Clip Top 110 degree door, the same hinge is made with BLUMOTION, or you can add a BLUMOTION add on unit to an inset door.

Where this version fits

Full overlay, the look part 71T3550 is built for, is the standard look on a frameless kitchen: each door covers its own cabinet side almost edge to edge, with just a sliver of reveal between neighbors. It is the version to reach for on part 71T3550 unless the cabinet drawing specifically calls for half overlay or inset.

Installation notes

Bore the 45mm cup in the door, press or screw the Clip Top hinge in, screw the mounting plate to the cabinet, then clip the hinge arm onto the plate; it releases with a tab for taking the door off later. Adjust side to side, depth, and height on part 71T3550 from the hinge and plate so the gaps match the neighboring doors. Behind part 71T3550, the drawers and pull outs are our department; Drawer slide types shows what slides each kind of cabinet uses.

Pair it with drawer boxes

A 110 degree Clip Top full overlay door usually has a drawer or pull out somewhere behind it, and we build those in our Las Vegas shop: a custom size dovetail drawer box in Baltic Birch or Hard Maple (Select Grade), or a standard size drawer box off the shelf. Built in USA. How to install a replacement drawer box and Drawer side thickness cover that side of the job if both are changing at once with part 71T3550.
