The Adjustable Lock Jig is a versatile tool designed for precision and efficiency, featuring sliding plates and stops that accommodate mortice and faceplates ranging from 1-3/16 inches to 9-27/32 inches in length. This makes it perfect for both obscure-sized locks and standard locks and latches. Its quick and easy setup is enhanced by engravings on the underside, allowing for fast, accurate adjustments for common door widths of 1-3/8 inches, 1-9/16 inches, 1-3/4 inches, and 2-1/8 inches. The adaptable sliding plate and stop adjustments are compatible with various guide bush diameters and straight cutters, making it ideal for general mortice work in construction projects. Designed for use with a 1/2-inch capacity router with a 3-5/32 inches plunge capacity, it fits a 1-3/16 inch guide bush and 1/2 inch cutter, and is compatible with Trend cutters such as 3/75X1/2TC, TR37X1/2TC, and C172X1/2TC. The adjustable range of this jig makes it the perfect choice for precision fitting of mortice positions for multi-point lock strips into wooden doors, accommodating lock faceplates up to 9-27/32 inches in length.
