What it is

Press the door and part B956.1004 pushes it open far enough to grab by hand, no handle or pull needed. It is the standard version, for doors under 48 inches tall, finished in gray, sold each.

What it fits

Part B956.1004 suits handleless doors on frameless or face frame cabinets. Pair it with a free swinging Clip Top hinge, the version with no self close spring, so the door can be pushed open; a self closing hinge would pull the door back against the unit. Part B956.1004 mounts on the cabinet side or, without boring, on a Tip-On adaptor plate; this gray one disappears against a cabinet interior finished to match. The plates and the free swinging hinges are both in cabinet hinges and Blum accessories.

Installation notes

Mount part B956.1004, or its adaptor plate, at the free edge of the door, fit the catch plate to the door itself, then dial in the reach until the door sits with a small even gap closed and releases cleanly on a press. For the drawers in the same handleless kitchen as part B956.1004, Drawer slide types covers where push to open comes from on a runner instead of a hinge.

Pair it with

A push to open kitchen with part B956.1004 still needs drawer boxes behind the doors, and we cut those in our Las Vegas shop: custom size dovetail drawer boxes in Baltic Birch or Hard Maple (Select Grade), Built in USA, notched for Movento with the wider Tip-On rear notch when you tell us to cut it that way. The rest of the Blum catalog we stock next to part B956.1004 is in Blum accessories.

No, the unit mounts on a Tip-On adaptor plate that screws to the cabinet, or directly if you prefer to bore.
