Kreg

In 1986 Craig Sommerfeld was in the process of building his house and needed to find a way to attach his doweled face frames to his kitchen cabinet carcase members. A tool and die maker by trade, but a woodworker out of necessity, Craig had a problem. Not wanting to nail them on and then fill with putty, he designed and built "Craig’s Jig" which was a single-hole pocket hole jig crafted from steel and aluminum that allowed him to attach the face frames from the inside of the cabinet where the joint could be hidden from view.

Encouraged by friends and co-workers, Craig built a few more jigs and set out to show them to the public at a woodworking show. What Craig found at these woodworking shows was an audience who had no knowledge of the joining method he was promoting, however they were very interested in learning about a new way to build woodworking projects. So… week after week, month after month, year after year, Craig would build his product during the week and promote them at the weekend woodworking shows. Hundreds of trade shows and thousands of demonstrations later Kreg Tool Company has emerged as the leader in Pocket Hole Technology. From the manual K3 Kreg Jig® to the fully-automatic Pro Series machines, Kreg offers a simple solution that has changed the way thousands of woodworkers join wood.

In 2003, Kreg diversified its product offerings by adding a category of products named Precision Measuring Systems. These products consist of a Precision Miter Gauge, Precision Band Saw Fence, and Precision Trak and Stop Kit that enable a tablesaw, band saw, and miter saw to cut more accurately and consistently than ever before.

With products ranging from $13 up to $7,499 USD Kreg offers a full-line of pocket hole tools to fit every budget and production schedule. Three manual tools; the Mini Kreg Jig®, RocketTM Jig, and K3 Kreg Jig® offer inexpensive solutions for individuals looking to get started with pocket hole joinery, while the semi-automatic Foreman machine and the fully-automatic Pro Series machines offer larger shops the speed and durability needed to produce production pocket holes. Our newest line of Precision Measuring products are premium accessory upgrades to make the woodworking machines in your shop more accurate and easy to use.

Kreg products are available through distribution outlets across the United States, Canada, the UK, Australia, and more. You can also see Kreg products in action at various woodworking trade shows throughout the year. We ask that you give our products a try, we are confident you will be impressed with their quality, durability, attention to detail, and service after the sale.
