What it is

Tip-On is Blum’s mechanical push to open: press the door and part B956A1004, a spring loaded plunger, pushes it out far enough to grab, no handle needed. Part B956A1004 is the longer throw unit for doors taller than 48 inches, in gray, sold each.

What it fits

Handleless doors on frameless or face frame cabinets are the fit for part B956A1004. A free swinging Clip Top hinge, with no self close spring, is what belongs opposite it; a self closing hinge would push back against the unit instead of letting it work. The gray finish is there so it reads as part of the cabinet interior rather than a visible gadget. Plates and hinges for part B956A1004 are in cabinet hinges and Blum accessories.

Installation notes

Fix part B956A1004 or its adaptor plate at the door’s free edge, set the catch plate on the door, then adjust the unit’s reach so the door sits with a small gap when closed and pops out cleanly when pressed. Drawer slide types covers the drawer side of a handleless kitchen with part B956A1004, where push to open comes from the runner instead.

Pair it with

Handleless only works if the drawers behind the doors match part B956A1004, so we build those too: a custom size dovetail drawer box in Baltic Birch or Hard Maple (Select Grade) from our Las Vegas shop, Built in USA, notched for Movento and cut with the wider Tip-On notch on request. Blum accessories has the rest of what part B956A1004 works with.

Questions

Does the Tip-On push to open set for large doors over 48 come in more than one color?

Yes. This one ships in gray; Blum makes the set in several finishes so it disappears against the cabinet interior.

Which hinge do I use with the Tip-On push to open set for large doors over 48 ?

A free swinging Clip Top hinge with no self close spring, so the door on part B956A1004 can be pushed open; a self closing hinge would fight part B956A1004.
