Stainless Steel Squares

For straightforward measuring, marking and checking, our Stainless Steel Squares provide a precise reference for everyday workshop tasks.

Available in a choice of sizes, the range features stainless steel blades with clearly laser-marked metric measurements, allowing dimensions to be read quickly and accurately.

Dedicated marking features provide additional functionality when setting out workpieces, while the different sizes allow you to choose the right square for anything from smaller components to larger panels and projects.

Combination Squares

A combination square is one of the most versatile measuring and layout tools in a woodworking workshop.

Our ULTRA COMBI MAX Squares have been developed to provide accurate measuring and marking while incorporating additional features designed around practical workshop use.

Ideal for checking and transferring measurements, marking 90° references and carrying out repeatable layout work, they're designed to provide multiple functions within one precision tool.

For woodworking projects where accurate measurement and versatility matter, a combination square can quickly become one of the most frequently used tools on the bench.

Carpenter Squares

Our 175mm Carpenter Square provides a compact solution for measuring, marking and setting out timber and sheet material.

Designed for everyday woodworking and carpentry, its size makes it easy to reach for when working on smaller components while providing useful measurement and layout references.

It's particularly suited to workshop and site use where a compact, precision measuring tool is required throughout a project.

Precision Triangles

For larger layout, measuring and squaring tasks, our Precision Triangles provide an accurate reference across a greater working area.

Available in different sizes, they're particularly useful when working with larger workpieces, sheet materials and MFT-style workstations where a larger reference surface can make accurate positioning and alignment considerably easier.

Precision-machined components and clearly defined measurement markings make them a practical addition to workshops where repeatability matters.

T-Squares

When you need to mark or reference accurately from the edge of a workpiece, a woodworking T-square provides a simple and effective solution.

Our T-Squares are designed for accurate layout work across timber, boards and sheet materials, providing a reliable 90° reference from an edge.

They're particularly useful for cabinetry, furniture making and larger projects where longer marking lines and consistent positioning are required.

Bevel & Angle Squares

Not every woodworking project is square.

Our range also includes tools designed for transferring, setting and working with different angles, including adjustable bevel squares and specialist angle-measuring solutions.

These tools make it easier to transfer an existing angle from a workpiece or establish the angle required for a cut, joint or layout.

For projects involving more than straightforward 90° references, an adjustable woodworking square can provide an invaluable addition to your measuring toolkit.

Setup & Clamping Squares

Accurate assembly is just as important as accurate marking.

Our setup and clamping squares are designed to assist with positioning, checking and holding components during assembly and setup tasks.

They're particularly useful for cabinetry, box construction, frames and other projects where components need to be positioned accurately in relation to one another.

Whether you're setting up a machine, assembling a project or checking components before fixing, a reliable reference helps remove unnecessary guesswork.

Choosing the Right Woodworking Square

Different woodworking squares are suited to different jobs.

For general measuring, marking and checking, a traditional precision or stainless steel square provides a dependable workshop reference.

A combination square offers additional versatility when you want multiple measuring and marking functions within one tool.

For larger workpieces and sheet materials, a precision triangle or T-square provides a larger reference area and longer marking capability.

A carpenter square offers a compact solution for everyday woodworking and site work, while bevel and angle squares are better suited to projects involving non-90° angles.

Many woodworkers therefore keep more than one type and size of square available, choosing the most appropriate tool for the task at hand.


Woodworking Squares for Accurate Measuring & Marking

Accuracy at the measuring and marking stage can make a significant difference to the finished project.

A reliable woodworking square can be used for:

  • Checking 90° corners and assemblies
  • Marking accurate cutting lines
  • Setting out timber and sheet material
  • Checking machinery and workshop setups
  • Transferring measurements
  • Marking and transferring angles
  • Positioning components during assembly
  • Cabinetry and furniture making
  • Joinery and general carpentry
  • Working with MFT-style workstations

Getting your reference lines right from the beginning helps reduce errors later in the project and makes repeatable work easier to achieve.
