Introducing the Trend Contractor One Piece Hinge Jig - a go-to tool for precise hinge installation. Crafted with the needs of contractors and joiners in mind, this single piece hinge jig is optimized for recessing hinges in wooden doors and frames using a plunge router. The tool promises simplicity and speed, taking the guesswork out of your hinge installation tasks and allowing you to complete them with precision and efficiency.
Boasting dual adaptability, it’s a perfect fit for on-site tasks and workshop jobs thanks to its user-friendly design. It also comes with four apertures to meet your fire door requirements. It eliminates the need for traditional marking out, as the hinge acts as the pattern, ensuring swift and effortless setup.
Each use yields clean, accurate recesses for an impeccable finish every time. Ideal for timber-based doors and square butt hinges. This jig is versatile enough to be used on both internal and external doors, rebated frames, and up to a maximum thickness of 25mm fixed stops.
For optimal performance, pair it with a light duty plunge router with a 1/4 inch collet. A long-reach router cutter is required - we suggest a 12mm diameter cutter with an overall length of 70mm. Note that in some cases, a Unibase might be needed, especially for a T4EK router, which would require either a ref UNIBASE or GB/T4/160 guide bush.
