Installing draperies and other window treatments just got easier with the help of the Twist-Lok Drill and Drive System. It helps to change a cumbersome and awkward chore into one that's not too difficult at all.

I've recently discovered that the Twist-Lok Drill and Drive System is a real help on the job.

The Twist-Lok is a device or tool that fits onto the leading edge of your electric drill. You install your drill bit into the drill for drilling holes. The Twist-Lok fits snuggly and securely onto the top of the drill head and you're ready to screw.

It's a terrific time-saver! You don't need to keep removing the drill bit and installing the screw driver bit each time you need to install a screw. You simply slide the Twist-Lok over the head of the drill and screw away. When you need to drill again, you remove the Twist-Lok and drill.

The only downside I found is in a tight corner. The Twist-Lok is slightly cumbersome and you might not have enough room to work with the extension on the head of the drill.

But the advantages far outweigh this small disadvantage.

The Twist-Lok Drill and Drive System is well-made, lightweight, and very convenient! Try it. I think you'll find that it is a great help in a variety of installations when you need to use an electric drill and screw driver.
