Important Note
This listing is a custom designed and manufactured product made to order, the photos are displaying example jigs. Please ensure you carefully measure your hinge as accurately as possible as no returns are accepted for user error while taking measurements. I recommend using an accurate Vernier calliper. A small tolerance will be added to each measurement to offset tolerances and shrinkage during cooling and ensure compatibility, this may result in jigs being up to 0.3mm larger than specified. The product video shows the slimline and standard model usage, the slimline basic is the same as the slimline except without the storage hook, screw storage and built-in depth set.

Jig Usage
Designed to be used with a guided template profiler router bit up to 15mm in diameter. This sort of bit has a bearing that allows the blade to run around the guide without cutting it, I recommend the Trend 1/4″ 12.7mm x 9.5mm C121BX1/4TC (Toolstation code 41051). The router bit is not included.
To quickly set the router depth using the integrated cut-out:
- Check the your hinge matches the thickness in mm given on the jig near the arrows
- This will be the recess depth, do not proceed with these steps if it does not closely match
- Turn the jig upside down with the colour facing upwards
- Place your cutter over the cut-out (between the two arrows)
- Push the cutter as far as it will go into the cut-out then secure the blade at this depth
- You have now set your cutter depth and are ready to recess your hinge
Once the depth has been set, secure the jig on your door or door frame in the correct location. Position the router carefully within the jig before switching it on. Once the cut has been made, ensure the router has fully stopped before removing it from the jig. These steps will help prevent accidental damage to the jig.
I recommend you trial the above steps on a spare piece of wood first to make sure you have set the depth correctly and the jig is compatible with your hinge.
Note
Exact colour may vary subject to filament availability. Some small visual imperfections is normal for additive manufacturing, strength and function is not effected.
