    3:50 What happened with that top screw? It was looking OK up until that point.

      ForViewingOnly you should see my house... just replacing the locks and handles on a few doors and every screw is at an angle! not fun

    Use Forstner not Auger bits, you get a much neater, flat bottomed hole.

      The drill bit drifted a little and there are other details to consider. studhawk.com How to Fit a Mortice Lock

    Good video, but does it work?

    • @Studhawk
      @Studhawk 6 років тому

      Of course it does - you saw the handle moving nicely and the door close well. If confused try studhawk.com for How To

    thanks for the video.. will this work on a hollow panel door?

    • @MrPaddyvaltra
      @MrPaddyvaltra 7 років тому +1

      me me again yes it will but panel doors split easier than the door he was working on so take it handy

    • @simongraham5407
      @simongraham5407 7 років тому

      yes recommend the door 44mm thick and get a 5 lever mortise lock

    • @simongraham5407
      @simongraham5407 7 років тому +1

      As above the door must be 44mm thick or whats the point?

    • @Studhawk
      @Studhawk 6 років тому +1

      Yes because even a panel door has a block of wood inside for the lock to be drilled into as well as a 2x2 batten inside on length. Try Studhawk How to videos

    1st if u have to use a hammer or mallet to get the lock into place its too tight. 2nd u dont have to drill from both sides, just drill from 1 till u just peirce the other side with th tip then use that as a reference to match up on the other side. 3rd use a 19mm for the mortice body not 16mm a 22mm for the handle bar hole and a 25mm for lock key hole, the handles body will cover everything up anyway wen u install it

    Try the new Studhawk How to Fit a Mortice Lock by Studhawk - don't mark around your lock with a pencil - mark around your lock with a marking knife as a knife mark is more accurate than a pencil line. Nice job though Woodie Ta ma ga hanowa

    • @Poncke

      I just watched your video in your echo chamber, so the only thing that you might have done better is using a marking knife for 5 seconds in the entire job, the rest was infinitely more complicated and more work than what the chap in this Woodies video did.
