Souber ToolsDBB Morticer Accessories

Offset Adapter

Offset adapterThe DBB Morticer, manufactured by Souber Tools, produces a perfect lock recess every time. It is a genuine 5 minute morticer which is acclaimed by locksmiths and builders alike.

Highlights

Available as a complete kit, or as an upgrade for your standard morticer, this attachment has been developed for European-style rebated doors with off-centre lock mortices.

Using the same vertical bar & clamp system, the attachment has a side sliding shaft housing, so that mortices can be cut off-centre.

This flexibililty allows you to cut hinge recesses and the mortice for the strike plate on door frames less than 95mm thick.
