Thank you so much for your video. I went out and bought this tool today. Perfect for a female diy-er
Gosh, I have never seen one of these before until now. How many times I have done this the old fashioned way. Thanks for the heads up. Easy peezy!
Thanks for the great video, I didn't even know those tools existed.
What a brilliant little tool. Thanks Bill for taking the time to show us this how to I learn so much on this channel. Cheers.
You’re very welcome 👍
Great demonstration! My project went perfectly
I found your video easy to understand and implement, so much better than having to read the instructions 😊
Brilliant bit of kit
Very nice tool it looks easier than the old version 👍👍👍
Thanks Bill!
Thanks for the tutorial!
If I only knew there was a tool , I actually used , chisels and files and Hammer which took me so long.
Thanks Bill , I’ll buy this tool if I come across another door needing fixing.
You will love it👍
Over 2 years locksmithing I never knew these were a thing. This will save so much overall time with fresh installs. I like to think I’m good at making strike holes but this will be so much cleaner than a hammer and chisel. Especially for that price! Nice 👍
If you're a locksmith installing locks on doors, this definitely is not the tool to use for the bolt or strike plate.
Faster too.
They make solid metal marking tools to mark the outline to take out with a chisel its better than this gimmick 100%
@@masterbaits1 I believe it. Any suggestions? All in all this ryobi tool I still use at least for standard wooden doors. And aside from a handful of doors in a year, it’s done pretty decent work. Some doors looking factory finished. So anything better sounds great
Very helpful. Thank you.
wow, i love it thank u.
Niiiice! Gracias Bill
Only just discovered your channel and you have instantly become my favourite DIY channel. Good stuff.
Glad you’re enjoying the videos 👍
Outstanding video!
Thanks for creating and sharing!
I bought the tool and don't really know how to use it properly.
Your video shows everything I need to know on how to use the tool.
Thanks again!
You’re very welcome 👍
Just bought that today and had no idea it had that built-in chisel feature. That is genius.
great video mate, just bought myself this latch. your video has been helpful. Subscribed! :)
Thanks a great deal!
Wow I love it, only if I had a door to repair.
I love this tool. Great demonstration. I was wondering how I was going to get this done.
Nice one matey
plaster sheet, drywall and gyprock, or whatever else you call it.
this guys a legend
Lol👍
Great video 👍
👍
Good job 👏
👍
Nice one 👍
👍
Also helps on the the frame side for doing the strike plate.
Thank Bill
👍
Handy little tool. I see this now after doing it the old chisel way...LOL
This makes the job sooo easy👍
On my way to Home Depot right now! Tried the dremel with the router attachment and maintaining control of that thing is tough.
6:28 rounded corners there 6:31 sharp corners appear, sneaky little bugger 😏🤭 Saw these on Amazon for a smidge over £23 and considered it but I prefer more accuracy, this seems a bit too inaccurate and I wonder how many whacks with a hammer it will take. It's definitely targeted squarely at the DIY market; so infrequent use, but I always feel like the design is half hearted and with a bit more time spent refining you'd have a solid tool. It also baffles me why they don't make a Pro range for trade.
Ultimately if you have a palm router, close cut with the router and chisel to a perfect fit, remember, "sharp chisels cut, blunt chisels crush" 🤗
that cool
Hi Bill. Amazing videos!! If I buy a door second hand and need to repair the door knob hole, and re-drill, do you have a method / video on how to fill an old door handle hole?
Cheers mate. Might 'accidentally' break a door so I can replace...meaning I will need a reason to buy this tool 🤣
lol 👍
I use the term "accidentally on purpose" for the same reason.
figured I'd buy this tool based on the fact that it's only $15 and MAYBE it would last. got through 3 of 8 doors I had to do at work before the blade broke. made quick work when it did but now it's broke lol
Do they make one for the door frame?
Far out, I found this video a week too late! I had to use a chisel and a hammer for 9 doors in my house! 🤦♂️ 😂
Nice but was hoping to see the hole fresh door oh well still helpful
how does this change the round to square latch?
Wow brilliant tool , weak demonstrated Bill
Great tool! So much easier. Is there something similar to recess out the strike plate side on the door frame? Or is that a hand chisel jobey?
Great questions! I'd like to know this too
Not that I have come across. Next time I’m installing a new door and jamb, I will upload a video👍
Use a router
Great video! So I did my first interior door last night (6 more to go) and I used this tool based on your video.. Hopefully door #2 goes smoother, but the issue I had is when on the first step of striking the tool with a hammer several times on each side, it didn't imprint deep at all in the wood like yours did. It's like the latch section was too big to fit in my pre-drilled hole so it wasn't able to go deeply enough. The hole I bore was 7/8". Is the latch on the tool meant for a 1" hole maybe? Or what am I doing wrong where I didn't get a great imprint in the wood? Thanks!
Hi, it’s a 25mm hole 👍
@@billshowto So I need a 25mm bit? I had read the hole to bore for the latch was 7/8". Not sure where I saw that. Guess they are very close, but that does sound like the issue! :-)
if you watch it with volume at level number 1, it is fine!
👍
A good tool but practice first on an old door if you have one. It can chip the door - my wife was not happy with that....
Where can you buy it from mate…?? Bunnings, Mitre 10??? Cheers….👍👍
A few words "Rough as a Bear's Arse"
Awesome tip Bill.
Where can you get these from? Local Bunnings don’t seem to have them
Agree as I just searched Bunnings and they don't stock the model you just showed us Bill.
I purchased this from bunnings about 2 weeks ago. I noticed some other items bunnings sell is also not on their website. May they are having issues online
"mahk shuh its straiht" and still left that shit crooked😂😂😭
Japanese perfection, Germany tooling industries hate it.
Maaate show us how well it did
I use their router jig for this. Takes me less than 30 seconds and I don't have to chisel
How did you cut the hole this fits into? My doors are all cut with circular bores at least an 1/8" smaller than the Ryobi tool uses, so it won't fit!
Usually a 1" hole saw is what I use
Didn't exactly look like a good fit at the top. Would prefer to use traditional chisel methods for more control.
@@brettjones5361 Yeah, I'm old school, but understand new technology and palm routers are now available. This however in my opinion is a toll that a DIYer would be fooled into buying.
What you have'nt shown is that the latch is now further back in the door so the spindle that goes through the door to connect the handles is further back so you will need to reset the handle positions.
There should still be plenty of room without adjusting anything, it only moves it an eighth of an inch. The only issue you would have is , if the door was originally painted with the hardware on you would see a bit of unpainted slab from the original mounting position.
2nd
Don't look too close is all I can say
Yes but every joiner has a chisel really don’t get it
You didn't show the utility knife taking out some corners at the end. That door latch doesn't have round edges and the video jumped to being square...lol
Have you used this tool on oak veneered doors? Was just wondering if it worked as easily on those style of door.
Works just as well 👍
Seems like a lot of fafing around to me
I’d have this done in half the time with hammer and chisel gimmick for amateur diy’s
Sorry but that is a rough ass finish.
Sorry but as normal ryobi is junk. Tried this tool. Lasted two jobs. Better job with a good sharp chisel.
I do like this tool but I’ll stick to the old way of doing it. If you never learned how to do it the old way and you lose this while at a job, you’ll be in a world of hurt. Learn the old way and maybe have this for a backup just in case at the most.
Why are you wasting time comparing just show how the job is done, don’t go round the houses mate?
Полная хрень.
Dude..., seriously...🙄
Wow show us how it works, stop talking.
Not easier than a chisel and hammer if you know how to do it with a chisel and hammer.This is for the DIY man who cannot sharpen a chisel.
I'm with you John. Looks a little rough to me.
I can confirm, I just tried this tool because I need to do several doors and didn't want to buy chisels because I messed up badly the first door I did with a chisel I borrowed. Maybe the next one will go better once I know how to use the tool properly, but it was really really rough. Splintered and cracked the wood above and below the chisel area. I think I didn't hit it hard enough on the first part, but I honestly hit it really hard Many times and didn't want to break anything. Thank goodness it's not something that will be seen a lot or looked at closely.
I have no clue what I am doing. So this is a Godsend for me!
no, this is for a man that knows how to use a router.
You think? Gotta love professional haters lol
This is a POS.
