This jig allows you to quickly and accurately route out composite door slabs for Nico LoadPro 3D Adjustable Door Hinges.
Originally designed to save a massive headache when a batch of door slabs arrived from our supplier missing hinge preps, this jig lets you complete precision hinge cutouts in-house using a palm router—avoiding the delay and cost of sending slabs back for CNC re-machining.
Hardware & Tool Requirements
Router: Standard Palm / Trim Router
Router Bit: Straight-cut router bit with a top-bearing (pattern/flush trim bit)
Print Settings & Recommendations
Material: PETG, ABS, or Tough PLA (recommended for workshop durability and resistance to router heat/vibration).
Walls/Perimeters: 4–5 walls for structural rigidity against the router bit guide bearing.
Infill: 25%–40% (Gyroid or Grid for stability under clamping pressure).
Layer Height: 0.20mm standard.
Supports: None required (print flat face down).
Usage Tips
Mark your hinge centerline/height on the composite door edge.
Align the jig to your layout lines and clamp securely to the slab using standard F-clamps or quick-grips (protect the slab face with soft jaw pads).
Set your palm router depth to match the Nico LoadPro hinge leaf thickness.
Run the top bearing of your bit along the inner walls of the printed jig template in a clockwise direction.
