If you've ever wondered how do some craftsmen turn a door rehanging or adding a deadbolt into an existing door and frame. And when it's done it looks like it's always been there, well this is one of the tools that will help you achieve those types of results. Helps you put latches and strikes into door edges and jambs with ease. It will save you from ruining materials costing much more in money that this Milescraft Tool Set will cost you, plus it will allow you to do professional quality work for a long time to come because this set is built to last for a lifetime.

I am just finishing a new mahogany frame and panel entry door, and I used the Milescraft kit to cut the hinge and bolt mortises for a new set of hardware. The kit is very versatile in accommodating many styles of hardware. My only (but serious) concern is a lack of indexing features for hinge mortise placement. I "solved" this inscribing my own on the plastic template, but this is a serious oversight in an otherwise well engineered kit.

Constructed well and it works but I don't like the way that you have to put screws in the side of your door to hold the router fixture in place. There are better fixtures out there that clamp onto the door and don't leave holes in the side of your door but they do cost a few more dollars, look around before you make your purchase.
Took about 10 min to figure out how this worked. After that hinge mortiseing is a snap. Highly recommend!!
Sets up quickly, works better then expected for the price.
I hate to write a negative, but to be honest, plastic knobs are loose and kind of flimsy, not perfectly accurate in adjustment. Jig pieces are brittle plastic. Slightly expensive given the lower quality of the parts. Once attached to door edge, jig worked as described.
Easy to replace interior doors by using this tool. Quick turnaround on my order.
Once you figure out how the use in it a great tool
It was just as described and new in the package. It was just what I need for installing doors.
