Thank you! Straight to the point, no stupid 5 minute intro, exactly the help I was looking for.
Great video mate. For anyone who's not done this before I suggest you practise with an old bit of wood first.
Thanks Bill! Perfect timing for my door installations. I tried with just a chisel but the MDF and soft wood are a bit of a pain to work with to get that level right across the hinged area. I like your new and updated video to your previous one where you screw in the hinge before tracing around it. Perfect!
Love your work Bill. You should have your own home improvement show. Have saved all of your videos for future reference.
Wow Bill, here I was thinking that you must be very good with a hammer and chisel, then you pull out a bloody router. Genius mate, pure genius. Love it.
Router is so much easier and faster 👍
@@billshowto yes, it certainly is Bill. :)
Beautiful job Bill, I did learn something so thank you
I had a load of doors to hang and saw this method posted by someone else but they held the hinge my hand, drew round it the used a chisel to mark the edges before getting out the router. Your method is simpler and works, if anything, better.
With my job, because I had so many to do, I built an adjustable support consisting of a couple of 100mm x 50mm offcuts with aa pair of cross pieces (one end fixed to one baton, the other slotted and secured to the other baton with furniture studs and wingnuts.
In use I drop the support over the edge of the door and clamp it on to the door. The cross pieces mean that the upper edge of each of the batons is level with the top of the edge of the door and this gives the router something to ride on. I use an 89mm base Makita router and often fit 100mm and larger hinges so by the time you've cut out most of the hinge recess there's nothing for the router to ride on.
I use the same jig to support the sides of the door, with the addition of a couple of g clamps, when I'm drilling holes for 1" cylindrical locks as it's very easy to crack the facing of the door if the bit bites and tries to twist the drill out of your hand.
Excellent demonstration. Thank you, Brudda
It’s very good finishing,
Of course the good tolls
Make the job easer , if you know how to use it.
Thanks bill for the great
Video 👍

Best video I ever watched!!! Simple and nice. I bought a 6000 dollars Fibreglass exterior door I hope works on that one too. Thx for sharing cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
You’re awesome, Bill.
Wow that was great. Now I might get some work done tomorrow.
Big fan bill me and mum love the channel any chance u can show us how to replace a door missing some doors at home would help alot

Huge help. Worked like a charm. Thanks brah.

Best hinge vid ive seen! U got a sub!
Bravo!!👏🏼 Thank You!!🙏🏽 👍🏽
AWESOME !!! Thank you !!
Brilliant, thanks mate. Nice and easy instructions.
Now off to go buy a Router haha
perfectly explained!
Great video. Can I ask you how you determine how far in you place the hinge? Is there a general rule or do you measure the thickness and keep the edge of the hinge off a 1/4-3/8 of an inch like you’ve done?
Well damn, always thought it was all done with a chisel, That was so much faster and easier. Thanks Bill
So much easier and faster like this👍👍👍
Your a pro , who ever installed the doors in my house did not use a router, they directly drilled hinges on ,
When you actually screw the hinge onto the door when ur done don’t forgot to put most on the post. Since doors can be quite heavy make sure you have the most support possible on the door frame
Awesome Bill, always learning thanks to you. Cheers.
You’re very welcome 👍👍
Very nice 👌 but what about the door jamb??
Great job mate 👍
👍
Awesome, thanks!
On ya bill, love the videos
Thanks Bill
You’re welcome 👍
Nice one 👍
👍
Watch that other hand supporting knife hand. Injured myself badly from applying more pressure for a fire door and slipped doing the same method.
Thank you
Very good 👍
👍
Great video. Just wondering why you wouldn’t make a little jig for your router. You could completely skip the part when you screwed in hinge and then removed it again.
I think his main point is to NOT have to make a jig. He reduced it to the minimum number of steps and procedures while allowing a perfect hinge install, despite the job taking only a few minutes to perform.
Just nail 2 pieces of wood together like an #-shape and just slide it over your hinge marks so your router just move around freely without tilting..then just slide it to the next hinges easy✌🏾
Hi where can I purchase this tool thanks
Great video Bill! always get me so geared up to do some DIY shame I live in a city centre flat with no tools! Would love to know what order you would recommend building up a DIY tool kit? would the utility knife be the first purchase?!
Hi, i will be having a give away soon with the best start up kit any one would ever need. I would say a set of screw drivers would be the first though 👍
@@billshowto Thanks for the advice Bill!
This is great! :) One question: at 0:34 seconds, how do you know how far to position it from the door face (not from the door top or bottom, but from the edge)?
You line up the bit just before the gaps to the knuckle where thos spaces are
Yes 🎉
Thought I was going to see a video of the cut without a router but it looks like for a perfect cut you have no choice but to buy a router.
where can i buy a knife like that Bill?
Should be a link in the description, if not most tool / hardware store will have them 👍
There'd be no way I'd be that confident to do that with a router freehand. There are some great guides on the market that you attach to your door frame with a router bit to suit..... when I find a link to a video showing an example, I'll post one.

Iv always done it free hand ( one less tool/jig to carry ). But now I’m curious. I might test this out 👍
Looks backwards. Three knuckle part of hinge is normally installed on the door frame. Two knuckle part on the door.
I was always taught.. More on the door?
@@iTZzArJuNWith three knuckles on the frame, the hinge pin is supported by the outermost first and third knuckles yielding a greater resistance to torque from the weight of the door compared to the pin being supported by two closely spaced knuckles when the hinge leafs are reversed.
I’ve watched 30 videos not one tells me which bit to use
You hinge is the wrong away around
Hinge jig far quicker
That tool cost $99 😢
There’s no such thing as not buying an expensive one. Cheapest one is like $70.
$100 is contractor for "not expensive."
Take yo ass to Walmart they have a corded one that works just like this
Had like for 2 years now and works when I randomly need it 👌🏻
That's longer than chipping out and you can't cut a wedge shape with that noisy thing lol. Don't do this! It's wrong.
Next time switch off the router while it's still flat having it running is dangerous as you could catch something like your shirt and then end up having a very nasty surprise
Why didn’t you show how to do the other part of hinge install🤷🤷
