What does that spacer in the door actually do, surely the handle can be fitted without it?

The latch spacer what’s the score he left it in the door

So you have to buy a spacer every time you fit a latch using this???!!!

No latch tapper in box , wen I bought jigtech pack , is this a separate item ?

There are two grub screws on each side. They are easily lost when fitting. It's a tragedy that they don't include spares. Our carpenter lost a few....now got to find some more. The other issue is that the latch is a very tight fit in ours because the doors are hardwood....tried removing one for painting but no chance. It's a great design and carpenter praised how much time it saved, plus it's very neat.....but future serviceability will be interesting 🤔

You are not showing changing the insert in the back of the jig , to bore the larger hole. ?

Crap ! This is flawed the cutters get clogged up on every hole they cut and the massive hole it cuts out for the handle means that eventually the handles will move when used it’s a device invented for the tradesmen of today unfortunately not for skilled men He said it all really when he said it takes the guesswork out of it because us skilled joiners can fit a latch and handles without guessing in five minutes without using stupid crap like this I’ve been a joiner for 35 years and I’m still better and faster at fitting latches than anyone using this

The idea is brilliant but I found the hole saws burned though the wood when using on Howdens oak doors which has a chipboard core and it took over 5 mins remove the plug from both of the hole saws as they are to hot to touch other than that all worked well with the jig

People on here saying it takes 20-25 minutes to fit a latch. I have never met a joiner that takes that long in 38 years of being a joiner. It takes around 5 minutes to fit a normal latch and handle on average. If you are a joiner and that’s not the case you are doing something wrong.

Can these be used with ordinary handles or just round ones

Hi there just watching the video on TH-cam can you use any door handles locks on this

It's ok if your customer has selected to have this set of locks and handles. Useless if your fitting traditional square faced latches and handles.

Hi. When I use 25mm hole saw it make slight bigger hole that I felt. When I have installed smart latch with out tapping 🔨 with hammer smart latch goes in with finger push. Is it ok or what point I have missed it? Why smart latch fitting was lose in my case. advise me please. Which screw driver should be used for smart latch because screws are very little.Thanks.

JPT. that was 4hrs 48 mins

Where's the latch tapper?

No keep locator?

Not a bad product, but it's definitely not as easy as shown in vid. The jig isnt very durable, broke after 4th installation, had to glue it back together. The 25mm hole saw was more 24mm, as a result the latch didn't slide in, had to buy a different brand hole saw, which made it 1000 times easier. Then the next problem, was the latch didn't sit flush to the face of door. The concept is good, but there are flaws. Unfortunately in my case, I'd already bought over 20 handles and the jig set.

There's no strike plate on the door

Works great with handles and latchiketbis but can't figure out a bathroom privacy turn. There's nothing to screw into. Anyone help?

Why don't you guys door a jig for hinges too?? That would make more sense.

it is not that expensive system, you can buy 10 sets(hinges, handle and latch) with free jig at £179 that is £18 per set while you still keep the £60 jig.

These sort of tools make no sense to me. When you have multiple types of door fittings and styles of locks and handles and then you design a system that will restrict you to one type, no thank you, you can make it look as high-tech and slick as you like but if I can't do a job to my customers specifications its useless. I get sick of companies trying to lock you into their "Do it our way" system. I want a modular flexible system, I want reliability, I want support and up to date add-ons and most importantly I want amazing fast customer service. If I did this what would you people think? would be interested to here your suggestions... keep em clean lol!

It's just taken me a day to hand fit 12 latches and 3 toilet/bathroom locks. Fucking nightmare. I even used the souber mortise jig for the holes 😖 doors were solid to chisel.

I don’t get it?! That green spacer is just for a one time use? What’s the point. The company i work for it won’t provide me green spacers :))

That second hole saw wobbled about badly enough to take all the paint off on side, thought they might have given him an unbent one! No thanks

Took me 6 mins th-cam.com/video/syhO2FOjAk4/w-d-xo.html

Me and a fellow chippie will be buying ours shortly for a job with quite a few doors to hang. I think its a brilliant idea as it is true, its a 30 minute job to put a latch in by hand. I can see others apprehensions with being tied into a specific brand of hardware in order to use it. 9 times out of 10 the client wants to purchase their own hardware which would hinder the use of the jig to its full potential but I have heard from previous users that they have adapted a way to use it with other brands. Like i said, i'll be investing in one of these fairly soon :)

Fitted under 5 mins but if you notice the latch keep had already been chiseled out so add on a few more minutes for that. A good idea but as jack will said below its far too dear for a piece of plastic,but if jigtech want to send me one to try i will give you my honest opinion

I can fit a latch and handle in under 3 minutes

What a palaver and you expect us to pay how much ... £60 for the displeasure ... then spend Exorbitant prices on your door handles, thanks but nooo thanks. If you wanted to sell you high priced door handles you should have thrown the tool in for free or sold it at an approriate cheap price ... to promote the sales of your door handles
