Key features

• •Complete Door Hardware Installation in One Kit:The 1229 Hinge Jig PLUS is the only tool you need for full door hardware setup. Unlike basic hinge jigs, this all-in-one system includes dedicated templates for strike plates and latch plates, allowing you to perfectly align and rout all three components—hinges—with unmatched precision. Whether you're installing new doors or replacing old hardware, this kit eliminates guesswork, ensuring every cut is square, centered, and depth-consistent
• •Dual Clamping System for Fast, Secure, and Scratch-Free Setup:Say goodbye to clamps, screws, and door damage. The dual clamping mechanism uses padded jaws that grip the door edge and face simultaneously, holding the jig firmly in place without leaving marks. The soft rubber padding prevents scratches on painted or finished surfaces. Setup takes seconds—just position, clamp, and route
• •Adjustable for All Standard Door Thicknesses & Hinge Sizes:Engineered for maximum versatility, this hinge jig fits both 1-3/8" and 1-3/4" thick doors with a simple adjustment—no extra parts needed. It accommodates hinges from 2.5" to 5.5", covering every standard size used in residential and commercial applications. Whether you're working on interior bedroom doors, heavy exterior entry doors, or kitchen cabinets, this jig adapts instantly
• •Eliminates Need for Multiple Inserts with Smart Corner Design:Traditional hinge jigs require different inserts for 1/4", 5/8", or square corners—costing more and creating clutter. The 1229 Hinge Jig PLUS features a patented guide system that allows you to rout all three corner types without changing inserts. Just adjust your router depth and follow the marked guides. This innovation saves time, reduces part count, and ensures consistent alignment across all cuts
• •Achieve Professional-Quality Mortises Every Time:Consistency and precision are the hallmarks of professional craftsmanship—and this jig delivers both. The self-aligning template ensures hinges are perfectly parallel to the door edge, preventing sagging or binding. The precision guide bushing works with standard router bits to create clean, flat-bottomed mortises that fit hinges flush with the surface
