The media could not be loaded. Great tool saved me an enormous amount of time, easy to use and well built, great investment for the novice as well as the experienced pro

We recently remodeled our kitchen, and we decided to pick our own knobs and handles. I decided to purchase this tool because I figured make that installation much easier and I was afraid of measuring wrong. This tool worked like a dream. Once you set the jig up, you can use the jig on other similar doors or drawers, which allowed me to install everything within a few hours. Even though this product is very cheap it performed exceptionally well. This was my first time installing knobs and handles so I was a bit nervous at first. After everything is done, it looks like a professional installed everything the adjustability is awesome. The tool also comes with a convenient punch so that after you put the chicken in place, you can identify your drill holes easily.

For the DIYer, this is a great jig for precisely locating your cabinet hardware with consistency. There are other more expensive versions out there, but they cost a lot more. This one worked as expected. It’s simple to set up. From the time I opened the box, it took less than 10 minutes to set it up for my first project. Probably would have been half that time if I had actually bothered to read the instructions. Once the jig is set up, marking the holes with the supplied spring-loaded punch is quick. You do need to take a little care with the punch as you can get it at an angle in the guide hole if you’re not careful. I like the method of only using the jig to locate the holes for the punch. The other versions out there show you drilling through the jig bushing. Trying to hold the jig, the cabinet door/drawer and the drill would be tricky. I pre-drilled the 11/64” holes with a 3/32” bit to ensure it stayed aligned with the punch marks. My first project was complete in less than 30 minutes from opening the box. I would definitely recommend this for the DIYer. The jig may not hold up long for the professional installer doing hundreds of pulls each year.I dinged this product 1 star because of the instructions. The product is made in China and the instructions are translated from Chinese (assumption). I see this all the time. The translators, probably software, do a poor job with the English language. The front cover of the instruction pamphlet is titled “Handle Cabinet Haroware Jig”. The next line says “Metric and Imoerial Double Scale”. Then key features are listed that include “Porous Measurement” and “Protable”. The back of the pamphlet says “How to Intall”. There are multiple grammar errors within the instructions as well. These are easily corrected if reviewed by someone that has English as the first language.

I used this tool to replace the hardware on all our kitchen drawers and cabinets (50+ in total). The new pulls required different holes than the ones I was replacing, so I had to align the new fixtures to cover the holes for the existing pulls.Many of the new pulls had 3 screws and getting those properly spaced by measuring and marking each with a square would have taken forever and likely would have resulted in some "misses", given my limited carpentry skills. This tool made the job super easy and relatively fast, and I had no "do overs".I had some hesitation when comparing this tool to other more expensive options due to some of the parts being plastic, but it worked like a champ, and I have zero regrets not opting for one of the more expensive all-metal options. The jigs locked in place and did not move once set and I was able to install all of the pulls of the same size without further adjustment. I will note that rather than measuring the distance between the holes and using the scale on the ruler, I just used the mounting screws for the pulls through the jig holes to align the spacing and lock the jigs in place. To make sure I was properly aligned with the existing holes I needed the new pulls to cover, I inserted a punch through the jig into one of the existing holes, then set the depth gauge and that worked great.The spring-loaded punch made easily identifiable dents that made locating each hole easy. I used a Milescraft Drill Block to make sure I drilled the holes straight and true and I think that helped me keep all holes properly aligned and spaced. Just make sure your drill bit is long enough to go through the Drill Block and the cabinet or drawer.

This is my first time using a device like this, but I thought it worked great! Easy enough to adjust and hold while using the marking tool. If you have a buddy to help hold, even better, but very doable alone. Love that it came with it's own little case.

This is an excellent accessory to use when centering drawer pulls. It works as well as the $100+ dollar kits. It seems durable and will last for several drawers

First, the center punch is junk. It would not reset the fire mechanism after use, and I would have to fight with it while holding the jig in-place. I had to discard it and use a something else. Second, I found the jig would bend in while holding it in place. This isn't a super big deal, however when you push the center in, it retracts the outer rings just a bit and your drill hole is just a bit too close together. Not a huge issue but most cabinet handles do not flex, and your hole is just a bit too close together. If they where to place a spacer behind the center piece it would remedy this issue.In the end, I mounted 60 handles. I have used several jigs over the years and this one isn't bad. The eyelets did no move when I tightened them down. Set up was not what I would call super easy, but when you learn how to set it up it went pretty smooth. I would recommend first time users practice on some scrap wood before. If it was a twenty-dollar jig, I'd give it five stars, but it's not.
