Is this necessary? No. Does it make the job a hella lot easier. Absolutely.

Easy to use and perfectly aligned.

This door jig is great…wish I would have bought years ago. Very easy to use and the magnetic shims included were very helpful. Strongly recommend this to anyone doing cabinets.

Recently I did a DIY project refurbishing and hanging cabinet doors with an overlay which I have never done before. It's incredibly difficult to get the doors even on the frame without help of someone holding the doors while you screw them in straight. This is actually a brilliant jig that facilitates hanging the doors yourself accurately and efficiently in a uniform manner.The problem I encountered was that you need to use spring clamps to hold them in place. Regular quick clamps that ratchet get in the way cause they are too long. Im sure KREG. sells some accessory that is specific for this but I don't plan to hang a lot of cabinets in the future so I didn't bother to buy it. Other than that this is an excellent fairly easy to use product and Im a huge fan of all Kreg brands ingenious jigs and inventions.This took away a lot of the headache and frustration of the task at hand was a real time saver and for the its so worth it!

Very easy to use and works great!

This tool made putting my newly painted cupboard doors back on a breeze. It’s easy to put together and understand, just need to make sure when you switch cabinet door sides, you remember which holes to put the arm back into so all doors are the same height. The smaller magnetic adjustments are great and stay on well. I did still need another person to help hold the door to screw or back on, but with some practice it could probably be done as an individual. Worth the price if you’re trying to save some money on new cabinets!

I bought this to help me align my cabinet doors after replacing the hinges. The new Blum compact 33 hinges have a slightly different design than the old ones and require a different wrap around plate, so it wasn't jut a matter of replacing the cup and putting the door back. Each door had to be realigned. This made it much easier.I would give this a 4.5 star rating if I could only because the magnets that hold the shims in place could be a little stronger. As they are, I found that they were pretty easy to knock off when installing the doors and this interrupted my workflow a bit. Of course, workflow on DIY projects doesn't carry the same weight as in production.If you want your doors to be aligned, this is a great solution.

I absolutely loved this tool. One thing I learned is when you are hanging the door, put it back on the tool for support in holding it to put the screws in
