An Easy Walk Through of Using and Installing Blum 170° Hinges

[@austen855]

Hi great video. What’s the door protrusion on these hinges? That is, the gap between the door and the cabinet

[@WoodworkersHardware]

Hello, When the door is shut, the gap can be minimal, down to about 1mm. When a ¾” door is open, the gap will be about 1-1/4”. The door protrusion when using a 0mm plate, fully opened to 170° is 1.5mm. -Woodworker's Hardware

Thanks very much. You’re a lot more helpful than Blum 👍

Hello again. I’m trying to source cabinet hinges for doors which will be 30mm thick. Do you have any suggestions?

Hello, Salice has a nice option in their “F” Series hinge. It uses a 40mm hole and can do up to a 35mm (1-3/8”) thick door. We do have the bit in stock- part number CMT537.400.31 This hinge limits the opening degree to 94°. If you need a larger degree of opening, Blum’s 170° hinge, when combined with a 130°restriction clip, can do up to nearly a 1-1/2” thick door. If you need information on these, just give us a call at 800-383-0130. -Woodworker's Hardware
