Frequently Asked Questions
What Kreg products does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood is an authorized Kreg retailer carrying the Kreg Jig pocket hole system in multiple configurations, along with Kreg drill bits, pocket hole screws, clamps, and accessories. Kreg also manufactures bench accessories and project planning tools stocked at Windsor Plywood locations.
What is the Kreg pocket hole system and what is it used for?
The Kreg Jig is a jig system that guides a stepped drill bit to bore angled pocket holes into wood, which are then joined with Kreg self-tapping pocket hole screws. The result is a strong, concealed joint that can be assembled quickly without clamps in many configurations. Pocket hole joinery is widely used for face frames, cabinet boxes, furniture, and trim work.
What Kreg Jig model is right for most woodworking and DIY projects?
The Kreg Jig K4 or K5 is the standard choice for home workshop and DIY use, handling the full range of common material thicknesses and providing consistent, easy setup for most projects. The Kreg Jig 320 is a simpler, lower-cost entry point for occasional use. For production cabinetry or high-volume applications, the Kreg Foreman automatic pocket hole machine delivers faster cycle times.
What screw size do I use with the Kreg Jig?
Kreg pocket hole screw length is determined by the thickness of the material being joined. As a general guide, 1-1/4 inch screws work for 3/4 inch material joining, and 1-1/2 inch screws work for 1-1/2 inch material. Using the correct screw length is important for joint strength; screws that are too long break through the opposite face.
Is Kreg pocket hole joinery as strong as traditional mortise and tenon or biscuit joints?
Kreg pocket hole joints are strong enough for furniture, cabinets, and most woodworking applications and are significantly faster to execute than traditional joinery. In side-grain-to-side-grain applications like face frames and panel assemblies, pocket hole joints are comparable to biscuit joints. For joints under significant racking or shear stress, traditional joinery or mechanical fasteners combined with glue provide higher performance.
