predrilled
Holes made beforehand
Predrilled describes something that has had holes drilled into it before sale or installation, saving the user that step: predrilled lumber, predrilled mounting brackets.
The holes are positioned for screws, bolts, or other fasteners.
The shelf came predrilled, so assembly took five minutes.
