Drilling Guides

A drill guide keeps the drill bit perpendicular to the workpiece surface, or at a specific angle, so holes are straight and accurately placed. They are especially useful for dowel joinery, shelf pin rows, and hardware installation where alignment matters.

A drill guide is a general accessory that controls bit angle and sometimes position. A doweling jig is a specialized version that positions the bit to align mating dowel holes across two workpieces so the joint lines up correctly when assembled.

Yes. A portable drill guide or hand-held drill block constrains the bit to a perpendicular path, allowing you to drill straight holes with a cordless or corded handheld drill. The Drill Mate Portable Drill Guide is a popular choice for this purpose.

Self-centering bits are designed for installing hinges, hardware, and other items with pre-punched mounting holes. The spring-loaded guide sleeve automatically centers the bit in the hardware hole so the pilot hole is perfectly positioned without measuring.

A V-drill guide holds cylindrical stock in a V-groove so the bit cannot wander off center. The Big Gator V-Drill Guides accept a range of round stock diameters and give you a stable, accurate starting point for the bit.

Some right-angle attachments are impact-rated, including the Drive 90 Plus Impact Ready Right-Angle Drill Attachment. Always check the attachment's specifications to confirm compatibility with your specific driver.

Adjustable drill depth stop collars clamp onto the bit shank and limit penetration depth. They pair well with any guide or jig. Browse our drill depth stops collection for options compatible with standard bit shanks.

Yes. The collection includes dedicated shelf pin bits that drill the correct diameter hole for standard shelf pins, along with replacement drill bits for when the original bit dulls.
