FREEHAND VS. GUIDED DRILLING

A Little Alignment
Makes a Big Difference.

Door lock holes must line up with the hardware you install. A fixed drilling guide helps you position the holes before the first cut, rather than relying on repeated freehand measurements.

MADE FOR PRACTICAL DOOR PROJECTS

Fewer Guessing Games.
More Confident Drilling.

Designed around the steps that matter when fitting new door hardware.

🔩 Clamp Firmly Before Drilling

Ever worried about your guide shifting after you mark the hole? The adjustable clamping design grips a compatible door edge, helping hold the drilling template in position while you work.

🪚 Two Hole Saws for Two Essential Cuts

Installing a lock typically requires both a large face opening and a smaller latch opening. The kit includes 2-1/8 in and 1 in hole saws, plus an arbor bit, so the matching cutting sizes are ready for your project.

🔒 One Guide for Common Lock Styles

Replacing a knob or preparing a door for a lever or deadbolt? The jig supports 2-3/8 in and 2-3/4 in backsets, two common residential lock layouts. Check your hardware template before making any cuts.

🏡 Tackle Your Next Door Upgrade

A worn lock shouldn't turn a weekend project into a guessing game. Position the jig, drill the required openings, and fit compatible hardware with a more organized installation process.

A SIMPLE THREE-STEP PROCESS

Set the Guide.
Make the Cut.

Measure twice, confirm your hardware requirements, and work through each step.

1
Measure & Clamp

Check door thickness, backset and lock height. Position the jig on the door and tighten it securely.

2
Drill Both Openings

Use the appropriate hole saw through the guide. Drill the face opening carefully from both sides to help reduce exit-side tear-out, then make the latch opening.

3
Remove & Install Hardware

Take off the jig, clean the openings, and follow your lock manufacturer's installation instructions to fit and test the hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers before you start your door upgrade.

What does this tool do?
It is a clamping drill guide used to position the face and latch holes for compatible door lock installations. It helps reduce the guesswork involved in locating and drilling those openings.
What door thicknesses does it fit?
The listed range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. Measure your door before ordering and check that the clamp can sit securely on the door edge.
Which backset sizes are supported?
The guide supports the common 2-3/8-inch and 2-3/4-inch backset positions. Backset is measured from the door edge to the center of the main lock bore.
Can I use it for knobs, levers and deadbolts?
It is designed around common residential lock layouts used by many knobs, levers and deadbolts. However, you must verify that your specific lock's bore sizes, backset and installation requirements match the jig.
Does the kit include hole saws?
Yes. The listed kit includes a 2-1/8-inch hole saw, a 1-inch hole saw, and an arbor bit, along with the drilling guide.
Are door locks included?
No. The knobs, lever handles and deadbolts shown in demonstration images are examples of compatible hardware styles. Lock hardware is not included.
Can I use it on a metal front door?
The product is described for standard interior wood doors. It is not specified for metal doors, fiberglass or security doors. Do not use it on unsupported materials.
Can a beginner use this tool?
The guided layout can simplify a DIY installation, but you should be comfortable using a power drill and hole saws. Follow the lock instructions, wear suitable safety protection and verify all measurements before cutting.
How do I avoid wood tear-out?
Use a sharp, appropriate hole saw and follow the door manufacturer's recommendations. For many wooden doors, cutting partway from one face and finishing from the other can help reduce splintering at the exit side.

I've worked on a few interior doors, and getting the hole placement right is always the part I think about most. Having a guide that clamps to the edge and supports the common backset sizes makes the layout feel much more straightforward. I also like the idea of having both hole saw sizes together rather than hunting for separate parts before starting the job.

I'm always looking for ways to make weekend home projects more organized. The two common backset settings are a big part of why this jig interests me. Being able to position the main lock bore and the door-edge opening with one guide is much better than trying to line up several separate measurements by eye.

What appeals to me is having a practical tool for replacing an old bedroom or utility-room lock. The adjustable clamp and included hole saws make it feel like a more complete setup for the preparation work. I'd still double-check the lock template before drilling, but having a dedicated guide makes the job less intimidating.

Better Preparation.
Better DIY Projects.

Thoughtful tools for everyday home improvements, from the first measurement to the finishing touches.
