This is the mounting plate that fixes Blum cabinet hinges to your kitchen cabinet sides. It's a pressed steel component with a cruciform (cross-shaped) design that provides the anchor point for Blum's CLIP system hinges.

Where It Fits

The mounting plate screws directly to the inside face of your cabinet sides, positioned precisely where each hinge needs to attach. It works with any Blum CLIP, CLIP top, or CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge, making it suitable for most modern cabinet door configurations.

How It Works

Your hinge simply clips onto this plate with an audible click, creating a secure connection that won't come loose during daily use. The CAM adjustment system allows you to fine-tune door height by plus or minus 3mm using a simple turning mechanism. When you need to remove a door for maintenance or adjustment, it lifts straight off without tools.

Why It Matters

This mounting system means your kitchen fitter can install doors quickly and adjust them precisely after installation. If a door needs tweaking months later, the adjustment happens in seconds without removing screws or dismantling anything. The cruciform design provides extra stability, particularly important for wide-angle hinges or heavier doors like those with thick timber or large glass panels.

Build Quality

Made from pressed steel with an onyx finish that resists corrosion in the kitchen environment. The CAM mechanism is engineered for repeated adjustments without wearing out. Blum backs this component with a lifetime guarantee, reflecting the quality expected in commercial kitchen installations.

Design Consideration

The cruciform design offers three fixing points rather than the standard two, making it the right choice when you're hanging particularly heavy doors or using wide-angle hinges that put extra stress on the mounting point. For standard weight doors with regular hinges, a simpler mounting plate may be sufficient and more economical.
