The problem
The solution
Levers and top hinge bracket
The client had difficulty operating the buttons of his door entry control panel because they were mounted too high to reach and the management company was unwilling to lower the panel.
The door control touch pad consisted of 3 vertical buttons; only the lower two buttons are used to talk via the intercom and to unlock the door. The client needed the action lowered by ~15cm.
Levers were fabricated from slats of hardwood; finger-sized push-buttons and key pads were turned from boxwood. The two brackets were made from convenient aluminium sections. The hinge-pin is an M6 coach bolt.
