‘Fridge handles
The client has a fridge/freezer, and opening the fridge part on top involves turning his hand palm-up and curling his fingers into a recess. He has multiple sclerosis and this action causes him considerable pain.
A door/cupboard handle was purchased which was then pop-riveted to the fridge door, providing a grip the client could manage without pain. A matching handle was then placed vertically on the lower freezer door where there was no issue of pain being caused but the recess was a little small for the client’s fingers.
He is very pleased with the result.
