PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 71B3690 CLIP top BLUMOTION 110° dual half-overlay INSERTA hinge – Onyx Black
The Blum 71B3690 combines integrated BLUMOTION soft close with fast, tool-free INSERTA installation and an Onyx Black finish. Its 110° opening angle and half-cranked hinge arm suit dual or half-overlay applications where two cabinet doors share one central partition.
Each door covers only part of the partition edge, allowing both fronts to open independently. BLUMOTION provides controlled closing, and the damping function can be deactivated when less resistance is needed for a smaller or lighter door.

Half-overlay planning
A half-overlay hinge is used when two cabinet doors share the same central partition. The half-cranked arm positions each door so both can close correctly while covering only part of the shared panel edge. This differs from a full-overlay hinge, which is normally used on an outside cabinet side.
Planning and fitting
INSERTA requires correctly prepared door drillings. The hinge cup locks into the prepared fixing pattern without conventional cup-fixing screws or insertion machinery. The CLIP mechanism then connects the hinge arm to a compatible mounting plate without tools.
A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be ordered separately. Select the plate height according to the cabinet construction, drilling distance and required half overlay.
For the verified nickel counterpart, see the Blum 71B3690 dual half-overlay INSERTA hinge. For a conventional screw-fixed cup, compare the Blum 71B3650 half-overlay screw-on hinge. Browse the Blum CLIP top half-overlay hinge collection.
Matching components
The mounting plate, cabinet fixings, cover caps and drilling equipment are supplied separately. This listing contains one hinge.
