Create grid where points is centroid? QGIS

I want a grid around my points(100 x 100 m), where points are center. Creating a grid from

Vector --> Research Tools --> Vector Grid

creates grid, but not centered around my points.

How do I do this?

Answer

This way it should work:

1. Reproject your points to a projected CRS with metres as units (if not already done)


2. Draw buffers with a radius of 50m (half of the grid size) around them with Vector -> Geoprocessing Tools -> buffer(s)


3. Create the vector grid with the extent of the buffer layer and 100m spacing
