Template worked well for my needs. The instructions are confusing and ended up being useless and could not be followed. Need to have knowledge of how to set up and use a router and other basic tools.

Worked great and made perfect hinge cutouts – very easy to use and certainly made the hanging of 10 new doors, 3 hinges each, a snap.Highly recommend and a fantastic price with superior quality.

After hacking up too many mortises with a chisel, this really does the trick. My only complaint is that is sets too high off the door edge making eyeballing the new hinge location a little harder. But all in all, its a good tool.

It did work well, but the setup with the screws I didn’t like. It put extra holes in the door, a clamp would be better.

The only hassle is that you have to screw the template to the door and frame. I liked that it is set up for hinges with either a 1/4 or 5/8 radius corners.

Instructions were minimal, but it did the job.

A little chinsey on the adjustment knobs, but a good value overall. used it on 7 doors without a problem, and put it away in case I need it again. the router bit worked well too. I used the nails it came with once and tossed them out, found some small screws instead. practice on a scrap piece to set the router bit height first.

For installing unhinged doors it’s the tool you need. Easy to use and the hinges came out perfect every time. I replaced 12 unhinged doors with the mortise kit.

Very easy to use, great quality at a great price. It even comes with a nice chart giving measurements for different sizes of doors. Also includes a nice router bit. The only improvement that can be made is to include some type of case.
