This is how to drill out a door and casing for adding a deadbolt. It'll also work if all you have is a blank door and need to do everything. Spend the money and buy the jig kit. You only get ONE chance to do it right and trying to be cheap and free style it will likely result in screwing it up. The kit should come with the correct hole saw & 1" bit.

I forgot to film the chiseling. I used a 1/2" chisel Score around the drawn line first and then chisel it out.
