Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this jig guide the drill bit?

No, this jig is designed specifically for marking center points. You must use a drill or Forstner bit to create the actual holes after marking.

Can this be used on frameless cabinets?

Yes, it is designed for standard cabinet drilling patterns including common frameless and face-frame configurations compatible with Hettich hardware.

Is it compatible with non-Hettich hinges?

The jig is optimized for Hettich hinge systems (Sensys, Intermat, Ecomat). Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.

What is the material of the tool?

It is made of durable, high-quality blue plastic intended for repeated professional use.

Can it mark middle wall applications?

Yes, the tool features specific markings to accommodate middle wall stops for double-door setups.

Troubleshooting

Marks are consistently off-center

Verify that the jig is held completely flush against the reference edge of the cabinet door or panel without shifting.

Hinge plate does not align with the marked holes

Check that the jig is set to the correct mode for your door type (overlay, half-overlay, or inset) before marking.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Increases precision of hinge cup and plate placement
  • Lightweight and highly portable for field work
  • Compatible with a wide range of Hettich hinge systems
  • Reduces measurement errors during installation

Cons

  • Designed for marking only, not as a drill template
  • Constructed from plastic which requires care to avoid damage
  • Limited to specific Hettich hinge series

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the jig, position it firmly against the cabinet edge, ensuring the reference tabs are flush with the surface. Use a sharp pencil or a spring-loaded center punch to mark the holes through the template guides. This tool is compatible with the entire Hettich Sensys and legacy Intermat series. To maintain the accuracy of the jig, avoid applying excessive pressure that could deform the plastic guides. Store the tool in a dry environment away from extreme heat to prevent warping of the plastic material, and periodically wipe away any wood dust or debris to ensure the reference edges remain clean and accurate.
