The Centrios Drill Jig is the field tool that locates the two through-bolt holes for a Centrios cylindrical lock install. Drop it into the crossbore you already cut, the tabs center it in place, and the jig gives you the exact drill points for the mounting bolts at either a 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" backset. One tool for both standard backsets, no measuring, no template stickers.
How it works
After the crossbore and edge-bore are cut with a standard hole saw, the drill jig drops into the crossbore and locks in with its alignment fingers. The jig is labeled on-tool for the two standard backsets (2-3/8" and 2-3/4") and calls out the 5/16" drill bit needed for the through-bolts. Drill each hole only halfway from one face, then flip the door and drill the other half from the opposite face so the through-bolts meet cleanly in the middle without blowout.
Where this fits
Any Centrios cylindrical install on wood or metal doors: new construction, retrofits, or replacements. Techs who install more than a few Centrios locks a month pay this tool off in labor time and eliminated re-drills.
