Car lock adapter

Skills involved: General ingenuity
Issues Addresses: Reduced dexterity Reduced grip
Activities Helped: Motoring/car use
Location: Outdoors
Solution: Handle/grip

This client has hand and finger functioning difficulties and was unable to unlock her car door from the inside.

A fitment was made which is fixed to the handle by a jubilee clip and which has cross members to enable the lady to pull the handle upwards.

This enables the client to drive with the car locked and thus to feel secure knowing she can unlock the door when she wants to get out.
