Router Lift.

Precision bit-depth adjustment from above the table — engineered for 65mm diameter motors and designed to drop into standard router table openings without modification. Adjust height without reaching under the table, mid-session, with consistent and repeatable results on every single cut.

01 Above-Table Height Adjustment — Adjust Mid-Session Without Stopping

The defining advantage of a router lift over a standard router table setup is the ability to adjust bit depth from above the table surface — without stopping, crouching, reaching underneath, or loosening the router from its mount. With a router lift installed, you dial in the height adjustment from above using the integrated mechanism, make a test pass, fine-tune if needed, and continue cutting — all without breaking the flow of work. For anyone who makes frequent depth adjustments across a session, the time and frustration saved is immediate and significant.

02 65mm Motor Compatibility — Fits the Most Common Router Sizes

Engineered for routers with a 65mm diameter motor body — the most widely used size across compact trim routers and a large proportion of plunge routers used in table-mounted setups. Compatible motors include many models from Makita, Bosch, DeWalt, and equivalent brands where the motor diameter falls within the 65mm specification. No adapters, no shims, no modifications to the router itself — the motor seats cleanly into the lift collar for a stable, rattle-free fit that holds position securely under load.

03 Consistent, Repeatable Accuracy — The Depth You Set Is the Depth You Get

Precision router work — joinery, dado cuts, rebates, edge profiling — depends on bit depth being exactly where you set it and staying there across every pass. Small variations in depth, even fractions of a millimetre, affect the quality of the finished joint or profile in ways that are visible and that require rework. A router lift provides a mechanically controlled height adjustment that is consistent from one pass to the next and repeatable across a session, unlike the friction-lock mechanisms on most direct-mounted routers which can shift slightly under vibration or when repositioned.

04 Easy to Install — Drops Into Standard Router Table Openings

Designed to fit standard router table insert openings without requiring modification to the table, the insert plate, or the router itself. The lift drops in, the router mounts from below into the collar, and the assembly is ready to use — accessible for hobbyist woodworkers setting up a table for the first time as well as experienced craftspeople upgrading an existing setup. No specialist tools are required for installation and the mechanism does not require ongoing calibration to maintain accuracy.

In the Box1 × Router Lift
  • Confirm your router’s motor body diameter is 65mm before fitting — measure at the widest point of the motor housing.
  • Remove the existing insert plate from your router table to expose the table opening.
  • Lower the router lift into the table opening — it is designed to sit flush with or slightly below the table surface.
  • Insert your router motor from below, seating it into the lift collar and securing according to the lift’s clamping mechanism.
  • Verify the bit height by using the above-table adjustment mechanism before making any cuts.
  • Make a test pass on scrap material to confirm depth accuracy before cutting workpieces.
Refer to the included instruction sheet for torque values and specific clamping guidance. Do not overtighten the collar clamp — secure but not stressed is the correct setting.
  • This lift is designed for routers with a 65mm diameter motor body — the measurement taken at the circular cross-section of the motor housing, not the base plate.
  • Many compact trim routers (including popular models from Makita, Bosch, and compatible equivalents) use a 65mm motor body and are suitable for use with this lift.
  • Some plunge routers with a 65mm motor diameter are also compatible when used in fixed-base or table-mounted configuration.
  • If your router uses a different motor diameter (common alternatives are 43mm and 71mm), this lift is not compatible — do not attempt to force-fit with adapters not specified for this product.
If you are unsure of your router’s motor diameter, measure it with calipers before ordering. The motor body diameter is not always listed in manufacturer specifications under that name — it may be described as “collar size” or “base diameter” in router table compatibility guides.
  • Joinery: Mortise-and-tenon, box joints, and other precision joinery where depth consistency directly affects fit.
  • Dado and rebate cuts: Flat-bottomed grooves for shelving, drawer bottoms, and panel fitting where depth must be exact.
  • Edge profiling: Roundovers, chamfers, ogees, and decorative profiles where the bit height relative to the table surface determines the profile shape.
  • Repeated passes: Any operation requiring multiple progressive depth passes — above-table adjustment makes each incremental change fast and precise.
  • Template and jig work: Where repeatable depth settings across multiple workpieces are required without resetting each time.
  • Clear sawdust and debris from the lift mechanism regularly — build-up in the adjustment threads can reduce precision and cause binding.
  • Apply a light machine oil or PTFE lubricant to the height adjustment thread periodically to keep movement smooth.
  • Check that the collar clamp remains secure before each session — vibration over time can cause minor loosening.
  • Inspect the lift plate for flatness periodically — a warped plate will cause the router to sit at an angle relative to the table surface, affecting cut quality.
  • Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion on the adjustment mechanism and mounting hardware.
Adjust from above. Cut with confidence.

“Precision shouldn’t mean stopping to reach under the table — adjust from above and get straight back to the cut.”
