Plumking Door Hinge Jig | Adjustable Mortise Width Template Kit for 1/4 in, 5/8 in, and Square Hinges (2 in to 5 in)

Overview

The Plumking Door Hinge Jig is a precision template crafted from high grade 6061 aluminum alloy. Its anodized, precision machined body delivers stable, repeatable recesses and long lasting performance, helping you achieve clean hinge mortises with confidence.

Key benefits

• Flexible mortise width setup: adjust width to suit hinge size and door thickness for a precise fit and minimal edge edge damage.
• Works on doors and jambs frames: clamp onto doors or secure with screws on jambs for solid alignment; compatible with 5/8 in round, 1/4 in round, and square hinges. Note: for square hinges, final corner finishing with a chisel is required after routing.
• Professional-grade construction: 6061 aluminum alloy with an anodized, precision-machined finish; offers 300% greater deformation resistance than plastic jigs for consistent results.
• Easy to use: set mortise width, length, and depth, then secure the template and guide your router for clean recesses; no guesswork required.
• Pro results, no experience needed: intuitive design supports precise hinge mortises across doors and frames, saving time and effort.
• Complete package: includes hinge mortiser, router bit, self-centering hinge bit, double-ended screwdriver bit, hex key, mounting screws, and user manual—everything you need to start right away.

Real-world use cases

This jig shines when retrofitting or upgrading doors and cabinets. Expect flush hinge fit with minimal edge contact, reliable alignment across frames, and smoother door operation after routing with the included bits.

Setup tips

• Place the jig on the door or frame, set width, length, and depth, then secure it in place before routing.
• Drill pilot holes with the self-centering hinge bit and drive screws with the double-ended bit for clean, repeatable results.
• For door frames, remove the securing plate before mounting; the resulting two small holes can be filled later if desired.
