Kreg Drilling Guide

Regular price $9.90

The Kreg Drilling Guide features six hardened steel drill guides—from 1/8" to 1/2"—that do the work of holding your drill in position for you. The Guide features an ergonomic design and Kreg GripMaxx™ material that ensure it stays in place as you use it, so your drill bit won’t wander off your mark as you start the hole. The Drilling Guide also automatically centers on the edge of 3/4"-wide and 1/2"-wide boards and plywood, so you can drill holes that are perpendicular to the edge and perfectly centered. Use the Drill Guide for all kinds of tasks – whether you need a hole for driving a screw, mounting hardware, helping create a dowel joint, and much more.

Frequently Asked Questions

What drill bit sizes does the Kreg Drilling Guide accept?

It includes six hardened steel drill guides: 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", and 1/2". Match your bit to the corresponding guide for a straight, accurately placed hole. Browse matching drill bits & drivers.

How does the guide keep my drill bit from wandering?

The hardened steel guides hold the bit in position as it enters the wood, and the built-in hole alignment marks let you line up exactly on your mark before drilling.

Can it center holes on the edge of a board?

Yes. The guide automatically self-centers on the edge of 1/2" and 3/4" (13 mm and 19 mm) boards and plywood, so you can drill holes that are perpendicular to the edge and perfectly centered.

What is GripMaxx material?

GripMaxx™ is Kreg's anti-slip surface material. Combined with the ergonomic design, it holds the guide firmly in place so it doesn't shift while you drill.

What kinds of projects is the drilling guide good for?

Use it whenever you need an accurate hole — driving screws, mounting hardware, or creating dowel joints. For dowel work, explore our dowel joinery tools.

Do I still need a drill press with this guide?

No. The guide is designed for handheld drilling and holds your drill bit straight and on-target without a press. If you want fixed, repeatable boring, browse our drill press accessories.

Who makes the Kreg Drilling Guide?

It's made by Kreg Tool, a well-known maker of woodworking jigs and guides. See more drilling & boring tools in our store.

Can I drill holes for dowel joints with this guide?

Yes. Because it self-centers on board edges and keeps the bit perpendicular, it's well suited to drilling aligned holes for dowel joints, in addition to screw and hardware holes.

Are the drill guides durable?

The six drill guides are made of hardened steel, so they resist wear from repeated bit contact and hold their accuracy over time.

Where does the Kreg Drilling Guide fit in my shop?

It's a portable, hand-held solution for accurate holes anywhere in the shop or on the job. Pair it with the right drill bits & drivers and other drilling & boring tools for a complete setup.
