Custom Door Craftsmanship: Freud 5-Piece French Door Set for True Divided Lite and Simulated Wood Rail and Stile Joinery

Build stunning, custom French Doors and elegant window grills in any size or wood species you choose with the professional-grade Freud 98-317 5-Piece French Door Bit Set. This unique roundover profile set allows you to create Full Lite, Simulated Divided Lite, and True Divided Lite Doors, giving you total design flexibility for custom woodworking projects and high-end millwork.

Freud's patented technology ensures extra-strong joints by allowing you to produce tenons of any length. The set includes perfectly matched rail and stile bits for both 1-3/4" thick exterior and 1-3/8" interior doors, along with specialized Straight, Mortising, and Intersection Bits used to create the intricate mullions, muntins, and grills for divided lites. Each bit is protected by Freud's Perma-SHIELD® Coating and must be used in a table-mounted router with a sturdy fence to mill hardwood or softwood door parts accurately.
