ABSTRACT:
A door template provides a "T-shaped" plate arrangement for use in conjunction with a router and a drill to form mounting recesses for hardware, and more particularly for cutting a mortise for a hinge and a strike plate in a door and/or door jam. The door template is formed from a base template plate orthogonally connected to a guide plate for engaging a door surface. The guide plate of the door template extends outwardly normal to the surface of the base template plate so as form a "T-shaped" configuration. The guide plate separates the base template plate into a first straight edge portion and an opposing outer edge having a first cutaway section in the shape of a door hinge leaf pattern. Another pair of cutaway sections form a pair of corresponding pattern slots defining a first pattern slot opening, and a second pattern slot opening offset from the first pattern slot opening, extending through the straight edge side of the base template plate for forming latch plate patterns. The cutaway sections removed from the hinge plate and latch plate openings provide a templates for properly locating screw holes for the hinge and strike plate.
