Bivarlo™ Concealed Cabinet Hinges Jig a Precision Drilling Tool for Hidden Cabinet Door Hinges

Drill flawless concealed cabinet hinges in seconds with no measuring, no marking, and no ruined doors. The Bivarlo™ self-clamping jig for cabinet door hinges turns every project into a factory-grade install, even if it’s your first time.

Drill Concealed Cabinet Hinges Like a Factory, Right From Your Garage

Tired of cracked cabinet doors, off-center holes, and crooked hinges that ruin a whole afternoon? The Bivarlo™ Concealed Cabinet Hinges Jig is the all-in-one drilling template that turns even first-time DIYers into precision craftsmen. Whether you’re upgrading your kitchen cabinet doors, building a new vanity, or refitting hidden cabinet hinges across an entire home, Bivarlo delivers the same factory-level accuracy that professional cabinetmakers rely on, without the guesswork, the math, or the wasted lumber.

Built for 35 mm concealed cabinet hinges, the Bivarlo jig self-clamps onto your door, locks into perfect position, and guides your drill bit through hardened-steel bushings so every hole lands exactly where it should. The 35 mm cup-hole standard is the same one used by industry leaders like Blum and Hettich, so any standard hinge you buy will drop right in. One tool. One pass. Zero ruined doors.

Why Bivarlo™ Is the Smarter Way to Install Concealed Cabinet Hinges

Most jigs for cabinet door hinges are either flimsy plastic templates that wobble under load or industrial monsters that cost more than the cabinets themselves. Bivarlo bridges that gap with a rugged alloy-steel and reinforced-polymer build, ergonomic clamps, and dead-accurate guides engineered to fit every standard concealed cabinet door hinge on the market.

Here is what sets Bivarlo apart:

• Self-clamping design holds doors of any thickness from 14 to 25 mm without slipping.
• Hardened-steel drill bushings prevent bit walk and oversized holes.
• Pre-set 35 mm cup-hole guide matches every major brand of hidden hinges for cabinet doors, including Blum, Salice, Hettich, Grass, and standard imports.
• Adjustable edge stop for repeatable hinge spacing on tall pantry doors and short drawer fronts alike.
• Compatible with both face-frame and frameless cabinets, including modern European-style kitchen cabinet doors.

Whether you’re a weekend remodeler tackling a single vanity or a contractor knocking out twenty kitchen cabinet hinges before lunch, Bivarlo gives you the same repeatable results every single time. For a deeper walkthrough, check our step-by-step installation guide.

Built For Real Workshops, Real Kitchens, Real Cabinets

Engineered for Kitchen Cabinet Door Hinges

Modern kitchen cabinet door hinges demand precision. A 1 mm drift means a door that won’t sit flush, a gap that catches light, or a soft-close mechanism that never seats correctly. The Bivarlo jig was tuned specifically for the tolerances of today’s kitchen cabinet hinges, including soft-close, full-overlay, half-overlay, and inset. Drop the jig on, drill, install. Your kitchen cabinet doors hang plumb on the first try. Learn more in our guide to cabinet hinge types.

Perfect For Hidden Cabinet Hinges and Concealed Cabinet Door Hinges

Hidden hinges for cabinet doors look beautiful, until one is misaligned. Then you see every one of them. Bivarlo’s locked-in geometry means your concealed cabinet door hinges sit flat, parallel, and perfectly spaced, so the only thing your guests notice is the cabinet itself. (Curious about how concealed hinges actually work? The Wikipedia entry is a great primer.)

A Jig For Cabinet Door Hinges That Pays For Itself

One ruined slab of solid maple costs more than this tool. One callback to re-drill a wobbly door costs even more. The Bivarlo jig for cabinet door hinges pays for itself the first time it saves you from drilling through the face of a finished door.

How It Works: 5 Easy Steps to a Perfect Install in Under 60 Seconds

1. Set the spacing. Slide the edge stop to your preferred distance from the top or bottom of the door, typically 75 to 100 mm.
2. Clamp the jig. Press Bivarlo against the door edge. The spring-loaded jaws lock it square, every time.
3. Drill the cup hole. Run a 35 mm Forstner bit through the steel bushing until it bottoms out on the depth collar.
4. Drill the screw pilots. Switch to the included 2 mm pilot bit and use the secondary bushings.
5. Install your concealed cabinet hinge. Drop it into the freshly drilled cup, drive the screws, hang the door.

That’s it. No measuring tape. No layout pencil. No “let me try one more on a scrap piece first.”
