DEWALTDoor Lock Installation Kit, C-Clamp Design, For Metal or Wood Doors, 2 Adjustable Bushings, Easy Installation (D180004)

Although this is a plastic device, it held position very well and delivered clean holes. Yes, there was a bit of chewing out of the plastic drill bit guide, it should last for more doors than I will ever likely need to drill.

Worked well.

The larger hole saw has some cutting teeth that turn slightly outwards and this is fine for cutting, even my steel plated door. However the plastic guide sleeve is consumed on one use. The OD those outward teeth cut into the plastic sleeve. I hope finding a replacement sleeve isn't to difficult.

Worked great. Easy to set up and use.

I do a lot of doors and it's already paid for itself

I bought this to install a lock set and deadbolt in a new steel entry door. It was easy to use and made clean cuts through the steel on both sides of the door. It is sturdy and clamped tightly to the door and did not move when I was drilling. Don't press real hard when cutting through steel, and remember to back off every 5 or 10 seconds to let the cuttings clear the teeth. It will make a nice clean cut. Hold on to your drill firmly because when it finally cuts through the steel, it will grab and you need to stay in control of the drill. Very happy with this purchase. I wish I didn't have to buy it, but the bolt locations in the door jamb were at a non-standard height so I had to custom drill this door. The teeth on the two hole saws still feel quite sharp so I imagine this unit will drill several doors before the hole saws need to be sharpened or replaced.
