It uses the familiar tool-free CLIP connection to a compatible mounting plate but should not be labelled CLIP top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the 71M2790B have soft close?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is sprung and self-closing, but it does not contain BLUMOTION. Soft closing can be added with the compatible 973A0700 clip-on damper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does inset mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInset means that the closed cabinet door sits inside the cabinet opening rather than covering the front edges of the cabinet sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does INSERTA mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eINSERTA is Blum's tool-free system for securing the hinge cup to a correctly prepared cabinet door. It requires a 35mm cup drilling and two additional 8mm fixing holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the mounting plate included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This listing supplies one hinge only. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be selected and purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the door be removed without tools?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The hinge arm can be released from the mounting plate using the CLIP mechanism without removing the INSERTA cup from the door.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for push-to-open doors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This hinge contains a closing spring and is therefore not the correct choice for a TIP-ON or push-to-open application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the 71T3790 a direct replacement?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot automatically. The 71T3790 is a newer 110° inset INSERTA hinge, but its cup depth, arm geometry and planning requirements differ. Check the existing drilling and cabinet dimensions before substitution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JULIUS BLUM UK LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62846515151197,"sku":"HI71M2790B","price":1.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4100\/7453\/files\/HI71M2790B_3cf21e56-36c2-4184-bfe6-572b48235fa1.jpg?v=1785428262","url":"https:\/\/www.blum.org.uk\/products\/blum-71m2790b-100-degree-inset-inserta-hinge","provider":"Hart Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
