This is a specialist hinge designed specifically for integrated refrigerator and freezer doors in your kitchen. The Blum MODUL hinge handles the unique demands of heavy appliance doors, opening to 95 degrees and working with door panels up to 32mm thick.

Where It Fits

You'll find this hinge on integrated fridge and freezer units where the appliance door needs to align perfectly with your kitchen cabinetry. It's designed for overlay applications where the door sits over the cabinet frame, creating that seamless integrated look.

How It Works

The hinge uses Blum's slide-on system, which means the door can be attached and removed without tools once installed. It includes three-dimensional adjustment, letting you fine-tune the door position by up to 3mm in height, 2mm in depth, and 2mm sideways. A built-in pull-out stop prevents the door from opening too far and potentially damaging your kitchen units.

Why It Matters

Integrated appliance doors are heavy and get opened frequently throughout the day. This hinge is engineered to handle that constant use while maintaining perfect alignment with your other cabinet doors. The adjustment capability means your installer can achieve precise gaps even after the appliance is in position, something that's particularly valuable when working around existing kitchen layouts.

Design Consideration

This hinge works well when you need reliable, adjustable hardware for integrated appliances. However, it doesn't include soft-close functionality, so the door will close with whatever force you apply. If you want that gentle, cushioned closing action, you'll need to consider alternative hinge options that include integrated dampening.

Build Quality

The hinge is made from steel with a nickel finish and comes with Blum's lifetime guarantee. The sprung mechanism provides consistent closing action, and the robust construction is designed to handle the weight and frequent use of appliance doors over many years.

Closing Guidance

If you're planning integrated refrigeration in your kitchen and want reliable, adjustable hardware that can be fine-tuned after installation, this hinge provides that functionality. Just consider whether the lack of soft-close matters to you, as this will affect the daily feel of opening and closing your appliance doors.
