PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 71B7650 CLIP top BLUMOTION 155° Dual Half-Overlay Hinge – Screw-On
The Blum 71B7650 is a 155° wide-angle CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge for dual and half-overlay cabinet-door applications. Its half-cranked hinge arm is designed for installations where two doors share a central cabinet partition and each door partially overlays the panel.
The generous 155° opening provides significantly better access than a conventional 110° hinge, making it an excellent choice for wide cabinets, larders and furniture containing internal drawers or pull-out fittings.
BLUMOTION soft closing is integrated discreetly into the hinge arm. It controls the door during the final stage of closing for a smooth, quiet movement and can be switched off at the hinge when necessary.
This version uses a conventional screw-on 35mm hinge cup for attaching the hinge to the door. The screw-on fixing is the hinge cup—not the cabinet mounting plate. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be selected separately.

Typical applications
The 71B7650 is particularly suitable for two cabinet doors sharing one central panel, kitchen cabinets with half-overlay doors, larder and pantry cabinets, wide furniture doors requiring improved access, cabinets containing internal drawers, cabinets with pull-out shelves or baskets, and specialist furniture and mitred-door applications.
Door clearance must be calculated for the actual cabinet construction, overlay, mounting plate and door thickness. Blum’s formal zero-protrusion designation applies to the full-overlay configuration within this hinge family, so clearance should not be assumed automatically for every half-overlay installation.
Browse our Blum CLIP top mounting plates to select the appropriate plate for your cabinet.
For a full-overlay screw-on version, see the Blum 71B7550 155° hinge.
Opening-angle restriction
The opening can be reduced where the full 155° movement would bring the door close to an adjacent wall, handle or appliance. HI70T7553 reduces the opening to approximately 110°, and HI70T755309 reduces it to approximately 92°.
Frequently asked questions
What is a dual or half-overlay hinge?
A half-overlay hinge is used when two cabinet doors share the same central partition. Each door covers only part of the partition, allowing both doors to be fitted to the same panel.
Is the 71B7650 a full-overlay hinge?
No. The 71B7650 has a half-cranked arm for dual or half-overlay applications. The corresponding full-overlay screw-on hinge is the Blum 71B7550.
Does it include soft closing?
Yes. BLUMOTION soft closing is built into the hinge arm and can be deactivated when required.
What does screw-on fixing mean?
The 35mm hinge cup is secured to the cabinet door using screws. It does not mean the separate cabinet mounting plate is included.
Is a mounting plate supplied?
No. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be ordered separately according to the required overlay and cabinet construction.
Can this hinge be used with internal drawers?
Its 155° opening can provide improved access to internal drawers and pull-outs. Clearance must still be checked for the actual half-overlay cabinet layout.
Can it be used for an inset door?
Blum specifies that the half-overlay hinge can be used for certain inset applications with a 9mm spaced mounting plate. The cabinet should be planned and trial assembled before production.
What is the maximum compatible door thickness?
The hinge is suitable for compatible doors up to 24mm thick. Door profile, cup position, opening clearance and edge geometry must be checked.
Can the opening angle be reduced?
Yes. Compatible stops are available to reduce the opening to approximately 110° or 92°.
Is the hinge sold individually?
Yes. HI71B7650 is supplied as one hinge. Order the required quantity based on the door’s dimensions and weight.
