    Neat to learn about this type of template. I noticed that the cabinet doors were not aligned on the lower cabinet, so that the handles would appear to be at different heights once both are attached using the template. Noting this and adjusting the door hinges so the doors match in height would have been a nice addition!

      I do need to fine tune the door hinges. However, there are a definitely a few imperfections from my first try making a cabinet - that I won’t be able to fix. But it gets better every time :)

    A wonderful tips. I have installed 2 handles on my end table drawers and messed up and I thought it was fine on measuring but it was not. Lucky I am the only one see the problem. Thank you for sharing

    If you’re doing a bunch of cabinets, this is pretty slick. Nothing worse than measuring and drilling only to find out you made a mistake with one cabinet.

      I’m always nervous with brand new cabinets with a nice finish too, don’t want to have any imperfections or mistakes!

    I needed one of these a few weeks ago! While single-screw pulls are not that hard to do, double-screw pulls are a nightmare. Even the most minute error in measurement or drilling angle, and it's game over. They just won't attach. Thanks for the demo.

      Thanks! I've definitely seen a few long pulls that look crooked. I never want to mess up a my nice smooth finish on new cabinets!

    I have always wondered how to center those, though many prefer to have the pull closer to the top edge so it "looks right" when you're near it.

    • @YouCanDIYHome
      @YouCanDIYHome Před 2 měsíci

      The nice thing is its completely adjustable in all directions. So you can make it exactly how you prefer!

    Could the template not be flipped to do the other side without having to reset it? If it could it would be more useful.

    • @YouCanDIYHome
      @YouCanDIYHome Před 2 měsíci

      Basically, you would need to take that piece off that makes it stay flat at the top. The other problem is if it's closer to one side than the other, when you flip it, it would be in reverse.

    We bought our cabinet pulls from Amazon and the tolerances on them were HORRIBLE. You need to check every pull against your drill template before you drill because they were all a little different. Lesson Learned.

    I think you're taking something that is relatively simple and making it overly complicated. Use a tape measure and mark the spaces accordingly.

    • @YouCanDIYHome
      @YouCanDIYHome Před 2 měsíci +5

      Definitely an option. Some people like to have a little extra help to get things aligned :)
