Description

HANDS-FREE DOOR ADAPTER 

The hands-free door adapter provides users the ability to open doors with their arms.
When installed on traditional lever type doors, this reduces the potential spread of bacteria/viruses when coupled with already existing hand-sanitizer practices. 3D Printing of this device and installation is relatively easy, cheap, and presents a fast protective feature against COVID19 and other potential virus/germ spread. 

NO ADDITIONAL HARDWARE needed besides 4 simple zip ties.
