Why Professionals Choose the Hawa 042.3118.071

In high-end architectural millwork, the margin for error is zero. This routing jig eliminates the guesswork involved in track modification. By using a dedicated jig instead of manual measurement, installers ensure that the Soft Close and Push-to-open components can be retrofitted or serviced without dismantling the entire track system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use this jig with any router?

A: Yes, the jig is compatible with most standard plunge routers. For the most precise finish, it is recommended to use the Hawa-specified 10 mm groove cutter.

Q: Is this jig necessary for every Hawa installation?

A: It is essential if you are creating an "assembly opening" in a track that doesn't already have one, particularly when adding soft-close dampers or servicing pocket door hardware where access is limited.

Q: Does it work on both wooden and glass sliding door tracks?

A: Yes, it is compatible with the tracks used for Hawa Porta (Wood and Glass) and Hawa Divido systems, provided they are within the 60kg to 100kg weight class specifications.

Tips:
To ensure your project goes smoothly, always pair the 042.3118.071 with the Hawa Track Cleaner (057.3099.071) to remove aluminium shavings after routing, preventing damage to the ball-bearing rollers.
