I needed to cut 17 keys. First time using this machine for tubular keys. Very pleased on how fast it decoded and cut the keys. I also liked how accurate they were.
Router in strike plate on wood frame
Переглядів 114 тис.5 років тому
Locksmith using cordless routers to cut in strike plates on wooden door frames. The templates were custom cut acrylic made by me on a laser cutter. First router is a plunge router with a 1/4" bit. We used 3 steps to make the 1" deep hole for the bolt. I usually have a vacuum connected and you don't get all that dust. This day was only 2 doors so we didn't bother with vacuum. Second router is se...

Securitech mortise lock, making and using the template

My nephew Willi stopped by on his motorcycle on his way back from a two week ride out west. He stayed Friday night and the next day we rode our cycles down to Baraboo WI . We stopped for lunch and while sitting outside at The Lure pub on Lake Petenwell I noticed a guy having stalling problems at the boat ramp with his truck. At some point I was watching him back in at the boat ramp and just did...

This Old Door Lock
Переглядів 33510 років тому
Summer of 2007, a custom job I did for a 110 year old school. Needed to eliminate the deadbolts and convert to lever handle locks. They said they would replace doors if needed and I told them I could do the conversion. It worked well.

The cardboard box on floor is the best dust extraction method👏👏😆😆
Beautiful craftsmanship
What jig did you use sir ?
Custom made by me
Hello what is the name of that red template
@eugenemillerjr3073 it is a custom template I cut out of acrylic on my laser cutter. Lots of experimenting to dial it in.
What kind of door lock is that?
Its called Securitech Safebolt intruder lock
Will it retrofit on Sergeant 11g05
@@matteomarascia6407 Jigs already exists to do that. But not quite the same as mine. This was custom made by me. I had over 200 locks to install, some metal frames, some wood. Wanted something relatively clean looking.
It should. Most of these locks were BEST. But lock comes with misc pieces to fit most lever locks
Do you guys not install dust boxes behind the strike plate?
No need to install dust boxes, as these frames had plenty of depth to not have an open back in strike hole. Routing depth was 1-1/8 inch depth.
Professional, great video.
Like the video, what’s the name of the tool you are using?
What’s the name of the nibbler?
Bad Dog Bitter
Do you still offer these templates? And do you offer them for strike reinforcement boxes? Or hinges?
This template setup was made by me for this job and lock, as this lock does not match industry standards.
This process is too long 🙄
Great video! I am trying to learn how to be a locksmith I was wondering where did ur get that square tool to cut off the line on the door
That is a custom made jig by me using Acrylic and a laser cutter

Nice work. Where did you get the jig?
Custom made by me.
@@normz33 Very nice. Thank you for answering 😊
May I ask what threw the sparks at 2:35?
Nail embedded in the from
some screw holes on the door frame, will be refurbishment, very trouble.
Nice Aquaracer!
You could clamp across the door if you had a bigger template no need for screws
You are missing a battery powered blower to blow out the dust. Blowing with the breadth could transmit covid for instance. Then you need a battery powered vacuum cleaner to clean up. Once the job is done, you spend the rest of the day charging up the batteries.
This was an impromptu video. We usually have a vacuum that connects to the router and no need to blow. Both routers have vacuum hookups. These are weekend or scheduled school breaks for installations and before covid was a thing.
Hey norm, would it possible for me to purchase some templates from you? Mortise locks and those strike plates?

NICE NEVER SEE THIS TOOL
Your left with screw holes where you don't want them by the looks of it
I really like the hinge template jig.
Well damn
I don’t understand the plate on the door trim/stop. The video stop and didn’t see what kind of lock that goes there. Mostly on the door jamb/frame like the other two already there.🤷🏻♂️
Are you going to fix those screw holes you created. Putty and repaint
... and you have a screw holes to fill. Great!
Its still 10x faster and cleaner and when your doing 10 doors.. well
😁Is nice for laminate doors and farm
For people who cannot sharpen a chisel
Wow!
Sharp. Once again, I like the way you make single jigs perform multiple steps. I'll credit you if other carpenters ask about my attempt to copy what you've done here. Thanks for posting.
Did you make the strike template you used, or is it commercially available? If so, please give make/model no. I hang doors for a living and use Templaco jigs for latches and strikes but I don't recognize what you show here. Thanks for post.
I custom made this jig as the strike is a an odd size and only for this particular lock I was installing. I was really going for proof of concept and was pleased with the results. I too have some Templaco jigs.
@@normz33 Very sharp, especially as you integrated the insert so you get both necessary mortise sizes and depths from a single placement on the door. Can't tell from the video: what is the jig made of? BTW, I've also been making tools to solve every day problems on the job for almost 50 years now --- got two of them so far onto the market. Check out www.howfarout.com and www.1-FENCE.com. The level gauge might actually be of interest if you do much renovation; the fence system makes small machines handle large scale stock. Did a lot of commercial shopfitting back in the day. Had to bring pretty much an entire mobile shop and hit it hard for a month at a pop... Can't say I miss it.
Can you make me a template like that one? I have been looking for it my hole life, please.🙏🙏🙏
that's very nice work! may i know what is the cube shape chisel-like tool that you use to refine the door?
It is called a "corner chisel". It squares the round corners.
nice router cuz
Just cover the screws holes with wood putty and sand and hope u match the paint
Why didn’t you use a vacuum on your router to eliminate clean up?
I wish I would have for the sake of the video. This particular school only had 2 doors so we didn't bother with our setup.
Something tells me this guy gets through some routers
Sorry but drilling holes into exposed finished woodwork to hold a template is beginner level work. We call someone who can't do the job correctly, a hack. It doesn't matter if the customer doesn't care,it's about your craftsmanship and what you're worth .
I’ve done the chisel and hammer method many times but it’s never a super clean finish. Can get close though. Just picked up a router, another cool tool to play with, nice demo here.
Sorry..I'm quicker with my chisel
Could chop it out quicker with a hammer and chisel
Agreed
Love that template. Have you made any kits available for sale? I'm interested. 👍🏻
HingeMate350 Jig Complete Door Mortising Kit
@@desireemlaw Thanks! I actually purchased that exact kit since I commented on this vid. 👍🏻
@@reddbeard2030 This strike plate is not standard size. That is why I made my own jig. I just laser cut out of acrylic.
Nice presentation... What do you do with the two holes from the outer template that were screwed into the gym?
Up to custodian. This frame was loaded with past installs of locks etc. I don't think he would have done anything with it. Nice facilities I have filled the holes. I always ask before leaving site what they wish me to do.
Bet that was fun when u hit the bit of metal probably a nail, very instructive like IKEA instructions
His router bit didn’t leave a clean cut after hitting the nail hence the chiseling.
@@jeromenewton2720 Chiseling for to square the corners
looks great but i would not want to drill 2 holes into the jamb to hold the template. Then you have to fill sand the holes and repaint your customers door jamb. thats alot of extra work and cost,
Customer is always advised on how I'm doing this.. This building had far bigger issues with. The frames than the 2 holes.
@@normz33 Nice work, but just because you're working in a building with bigger issues, it doesn't mean your workmanship has to be downgraded to match it. Your work has to be always spot on. Nice work though. I don't see any links to the jig.
The best part is great white playing in the background. Great song!
I want to make a similar strike, but on a steel door frame. The steel is about 1.5mm thick. What is the best way to do without a router?
Maybe try this method from the same job using a nibbler. ua-cam.com/video/UGHsSUdmBYM/v-deo.html
