Product ReviewsMilescraft 1214 Door Hinge Mortising Kit

Good option to making a wooden jig yourself

This jig is a good option to making a wooden one yourself. The price is quite reasonable. Has a covenient indexing feature and cuts accurate mortises that fit the hinges perfectly. The only downside is locating the mortises along the length of the jamb/door. These measurements must be dead-on in order for the (multiple) hinges to line up exacty. The indent on the router guide is intended to hook a tape measure, which works fine for the wide jamb where you can keep the tape parrallell to the jamb but is difficult on the narrow edge of door; the tape must be angled or a block added to the end of the door for reference. Also, the indent is not laying on the work surface; it rests 1/4" or so high, so sighting a refernce mark is difficult. After struggling with this for the first door, I then used the edge of the jig as reference. This worked much better (see photo)Read full review...

First class product

Only purchased it just before Christmas but have already used it to install two sets of doors. The product functioned flawlessly. Extremely happy with my purchase.

Great for doors

I bought this one to have extra parts, because I have two other identical MilesCraft units. They work great for hinges and locks, and are easy to setup to work with.

Highly recommended

Practice on the wide side of a 2 x 4 until you get the feel of things and then do it.
