Perfect Angle Stopper for Blumotion Compact Hinge

These Angle Stoppers were installed on my Blum "38N355BE08x10S Compact Soft-Close 1/2" Overlay Blumotion Hinges", they fit easily and work great. A few tips. Guide Insert it down to the circular surface inside the hinge and point at the edge of the door.It won't latch, so insert it carefully and begin to close the hinge to latch.When the stopper moves partially loosens, you can only open it 70* or so, just loosen the screw, close the hinge to open the back, remove the stopper and gently push it back in, then open the hinge over it. NOTE: When you "open" the hinge (e.g. door was open), the hinge closes over the rear hinge area where the stopper is located "close" the hinge (as if the door were closed), it opens the rear portion of the hinge. Hopefully it will help. When inserting into hinges on doors already installed in cabinets, simply remove the hinges one at a time, insert the stopper and retighten the screw. The easiest seemed to me to be to loosen the single screw on the side of the cabinet and leave the two screws on the door in place. And first I made the upper loop, then the lower one. A hinge with a limiter will not let the door open further than 87*, but I put a limiter in both hinges for strength. I have used them in all cupboard doors at a 90Β° angle, including the ones that open towards the dishwasher. You might consider wanting them to be in doors 180Β° apart, but slam if they open at the same time. None of us are used in a way that would allow that, but for some people it might be a consideration.
