PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 79A5450.T −45° Type III Angled Cabinet Hinge
The Blum 79A5450.T is a specialist sprung CLIP top hinge for −45° Type III maximum-overlay cabinet applications. It is designed for angled furniture constructions where the door and cabinet side meet at a negative angle rather than a conventional 90° cabinet corner.
The −45° figure describes the cabinet construction angle. The hinge provides an approximately 110° door-opening angle.
This version has a sprung, self-closing mechanism and a conventional screw-on 35mm hinge cup. It does not have integrated BLUMOTION soft close.

Understanding the −45° application
The cabinet angle and opening angle are different measurements. The −45° specification describes the relationship between the door and cabinet side when closed. Once installed, the hinge allows the door to open through approximately 110°.
Type III identifies the specialist hinge-arm geometry used to produce a maximum-overlay door position on this angled construction.
Mounting plate required
For Blum's standard planned −45° Type III application, a 3mm-spaced CLIP mounting plate is used. Always confirm the complete installation against the cabinet dimensions before drilling.

Installation guidance
Confirm the cabinet angle, application type, door thickness, cup drilling distance, mounting-plate height and required finished overlay before production drilling. A trial assembly is recommended because small changes to the cabinet angle or mounting position can affect the final overlay and door clearance.
Frequently asked questions
Does −45° mean the door only opens 45°?
No. The −45° figure describes the cabinet construction angle. The hinge provides a 110° door-opening angle.
What does Type III mean?
Type III identifies the hinge-arm geometry used for a maximum-overlay door on the specified angled cabinet construction.
Is this hinge sprung?
Yes. The 79A5450.T contains a closing spring that pulls the cabinet door into the closed position.
Does it include BLUMOTION soft close?
No. It is self-closing but does not have an integrated damping mechanism.
Is it suitable for TIP-ON?
No. Standard TIP-ON applications require hinges without a closing spring. This model is sprung and should not be used as a TIP-ON hinge.
What does screw-on fixing mean?
The 35mm hinge cup is secured directly to the back of the door using screws. The hinge arm connects separately to a Blum CLIP mounting plate.
Which mounting plate is required?
The standard planned −45° Type III application uses a 3mm-spaced Blum CLIP mounting plate. Confirm the complete cabinet geometry before drilling.
Is the mounting plate included?
No. The mounting plate and hinge-cup fixing screws are sold separately unless expressly stated otherwise.
Can this replace an ordinary overlay hinge?
No. It has specialist geometry for a −45° angled cabinet and will position the door differently from a standard overlay hinge.
Is it supplied as a pair?
No. This listing supplies one hinge.
