My husband asked for this for Christmas and he is pleased with it. So, I'm not sure what else to say. He hasn't tried it out yet.
These clamps saved me hours on the first installation i used them on. Great tool.
Your minimum material with width is about 2 7/8" (aprox 1 1/2" for each stile) and you risk damaging your face frame if your try using shims to pull thinner material together. Product is a bit pricey, however it makes aligning your cabinets a breeze. If you are installing a set of cabinets where there are more than one side by side this clamp eliminates all of the heartache of getting the face frames lined up. Thickness is not an issue, has clamping capacity of 3/8" to 1 1/8"If you have more than a couple of sets of cupboard to align, these clamps pay for themselves on the first job. The clamps are not fancy in any way but very functional.
Not only do they help align they also act like a second pair of hands. I ran across these clamps and just had to have a pair. I have been installing various cabinets for years. I was not disappointed. If you install "on occasion" they may be a bit pricey but if you install fairly often they are worth every penny. My last install went very smooth.
As they have designed them, the minimum size for the two combined face frames is just slightly less than 3 inches. The Cabinet Claw's are a great idea. Problem is they didn't think about someone doing custom cabinets where the finished joined face frame is 1 1/2" (the same size as the rest of the face frame). I'm returning mine as they won't work for what I need. It assumes you are joining 2 - 1 1/2" frames rather than 2 - 3/4" frames totaling 1 1/2".
