The Handybar™
Prescribed by Doctors & Recommended by Health professionals Fits over 170
million vehicles in North America.
The device locks securely, and reliably, into position. In addition, it is
easy to insert and remove, it is strong, durable and affordable. The material is
forged steel with corrosion resistant plating. At just 0.7 lb., and measuring
approx. 9 in. long, the Handybar™ is sufficiently lightweight, and compact,
for it to be carried around in a handbag or pack. The precisely shaped nose
locks the Handybar™ securely into position with little effort and enables it
to be removed just as easily. It is also cranked, or bent, over its length to
enable it to be reversed to give just the right height and angle of grip for
getting in and out of a vehicle. Smaller, more compact cars tend to be lower
down, closer to the ground making it even more difficult to get in and out of
them. Fortunately, the U-type striker plate is one of the most rugged components
in a vehicle being designed to keep the door closed in the event of a
side-impact crash. There is a striker on each of the door pillars enabling the
Handybar™ to be used by both the driver and passengers.
