Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size hinges is this hinge installation jig compatible with?
A: This hinge jig is specifically designed for 35mm straight or semi-overlay cup hinges — the standard size used in most kitchen cabinet doors, bathroom cabinets, wardrobe doors, and furniture drawers. Always verify your hinge cup diameter before use.
Q: How does the magnetic backing work and why does it matter?
A: The integrated large-area magnetic backing adheres securely to ferrous metal workpiece surfaces or hardware, holding the jig firmly in position while you mark or drill. This prevents the jig from shifting mid-operation, ensuring each hole lands exactly where it should without the need for clamps or re-measurements.
Q: Can I use this jig on both the door panel and the cabinet frame?
A: Yes. The jig's built-in reference points and 2mm door-gap guide allow you to accurately position and mark holes on both the door panel and the cabinet frame, ensuring perfect hinge alignment and a consistent gap across all doors.
Q: Is this tool suitable for beginners as well as experienced carpenters?
A: Absolutely. The straightforward magnetic-lock design and clearly marked reference points (32mm, 48mm, Ø35mm) make this jig easy to use for first-time DIYers while still delivering the accuracy that professional carpenters expect.
