This Zacels Door Hinge and Latch Jig is for a 44mm-45mm Thick Fire Door with 102mm Hinges (4inch) and either a 45mm or 57mm centre latch. Other models are available for 35mm Thick and 40mm Doors. Please see other listings.
The hinge section (102mm) can be used on doors ranging from 35mm-45mm thick. (Please note that a clamp will need to be used to secure the fence on one side to the door. Please see attached photos and remember the latch plate section of this jig is set for a 44mm-45mm door.)
Designed to be used with a 12-13mm template router cutter (such as the Trend 1/4″ Template Profile Router Cutter 12.7 x 9.5mm shown in the photos). The cutter is not supplied with the template.
As with any template, we strongly recommend you try the template on a spare piece of wood first to ensure it’s compatible with your hinge and cutter.
Can be used with any type of handle that has a latch backset of either 45mm or 57mm.
