Re: door lock mortice router




I would not try to create the cavity for the mortise lock with a
router. If you are going to attempt it without the proper
(expensive) tool, you can do it the old fashioned way. Drill
multiple holes to the proper depth with an auger or a paddle bit.
Use an appropriate and sharp chisel to remove the webs to create
the mortise. The router with template would be a good method to
establish the case rim and scalp plate mortise.

The proper tool is here:
