Blum 71B9650 CLIP top BLUMOTION 95° dual/half-overlay screw-on hinge – Onyx Black

The Blum 71B9650 is a 95° concealed hinge for thick or profiled cabinet doors in a dual, commonly called half-overlay, application. Its cranked arm allows two doors to be fitted to opposite sides of the same central cabinet panel.

The Onyx Black finish coordinates with dark cabinetry and contemporary furniture interiors. Integrated BLUMOTION provides controlled closing, and the damping function can be deactivated on individual hinges when less resistance is required.

Dual and half-overlay planning

A half-overlay hinge is used where two cabinet doors share the same central partition. Each door covers part of the panel edge when closed, so mounting-plate height and cabinet drilling positions must be selected for the required overlay, reveal and door clearance.

Door thickness alone does not confirm suitability. Check the cup position, profile shape, overlay and the complete 95° opening movement before drilling, with a trial installation for specialist fronts.

Screw-on cup fixing

The 35 mm hinge cup is secured to the back of the door using screws. Screw-on describes the hinge-to-door connection, not the separately purchased cabinet mounting plate.

A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate and suitable fixing screws must be selected and ordered separately. Once fitted, the hinge connects to the mounting plate using the tool-free CLIP mechanism.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a dual or half-overlay hinge?

It is used when two doors share a central cabinet panel. The cranked arm positions each door so that it covers only part of the panel edge.

Is the mounting plate included?

No. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be ordered separately and selected according to the required overlay and cabinet construction.

What does screw-on mean?

It means the 35 mm hinge cup is secured to the back of the door using screws. It does not describe the separately purchased cabinet mounting plate.

Can this hinge be used on a 32 mm-thick door?

Planning information covers fronts up to approximately 32 mm. Final suitability depends on the door profile, cup position, required reveal and opening clearance.

Can the soft-close action be turned off?

Yes. The integrated BLUMOTION mechanism can be deactivated when reduced closing resistance is needed for a small or lightweight door.

What opening angle does this hinge provide?

This hinge provides a controlled 95° opening angle. Check the complete cabinet and door clearances before installation.

Is one hinge supplied?

Yes. This listing is for one hinge. The mounting plate is not included.
