Handybar 3 in 1 Car Aid

The Handybar Car Aid offers support to help you out of the car safely and securely.

One of the most important applications of the Handybar Handle is the side window breaker. In the unfortunate event that immediate escape is necessary, use the seat belt cutter and free yourself, then simply strike the center of your side window with the pointed end in a hard snapping motion. The area opening will be large enough for you to get out of your vehicle and into safety.

The Handy bar inserts into the U-shaped striker plate on your vehicle door frame. This U-shaped striker plate is one of the strongest parts of the vehicle and is designed to keep your vehicle door closed in the event of a side-impact collision. The Handybar 3 in 1 Car Aid uses this strong-point on your vehicle as a simple insertion point that creates an instant, easy to operate "support arm" for exiting the vehicle. There is a striker on each of the vehicle's door pillars allowing the Handy bar® to be used on both driver and passenger side-doors.

Just like biometric principles practiced by Olympic gymnasts, the Handy bar provides a leverage point creating what is known as a "mechanical advantage", allowing the user to move more easily from a seated position in a vehicle to a standing position with a fraction of the typical difficulty or strain. Reduce the amount of exertion and risk of injury or accident by using a Handybar to exit your vehicle.

Ensure your vehicle has two bolts or screws attaching the striker to the door frame. If your vehicle has a light switch in the striker, be sure the Handybar Car Aid does not interfere with its operation.

My elderly father is heavy-set and has bad knees. With this item, he can boost himself out of the car without struggling or having to pull on someone braced outside the car, also saving your back! My father is very pleased with it, it allows him to be more independent. Thank you!

Worked out well for my Aunt Verified Purchaser

Pros:

Stores Easily. Easy To Use. Safe. Supports Weight. Well Constructed. Lightweight.

Best Uses:

This is for use in a car.

Describe Yourself:

I bought this for my Aunt.

My Aunt, having had two hip replacements, was having difficulty getting out of the car. Her walker was too far away to get hold of and the car had nothing for her to hold onto on the right side. This item slips into the door latch catch and supports her perfectly so that she can attain a standing position for the walker. I was a little hesitant to purchase not knowing whether the quality was worth it, but it definitely was and I am very pleased that it worked for her.

Small, but mighty--- Verified Purchaser

Pros:

Lightweight. Sturdy. Safe. Easy Storage.

Best Uses:

Following Surgery. Elderly.

Describe Yourself:

Caregiver. Medical Professional.

I especially like to use this "3 in 1" for my elderly friends who need that little bit of leverage to lift themselves up and onto the car seat. This item should be marketed to the Occupational Therapy profession, the group that teaches patients the best and safest ways to help themselves and maintain the highest level of independence that they can. 10 stars would hot be high enough to rate this item. The price of the item makes this affordable to all, even those on fixed income. After all, safety is extremely important. Thanks for offering this i your catalogue.

Pros:

Lightweight. Safe. Sturdy. Easy Storage.

Best Uses:

Elderly. Emergency.

Describe Yourself:

Elderly.

Excellent design adds the convenience of using device as a "grab handle" for extra support to the safety factors of breaking a car window and cutting the seat belt. Have previously bought similar devices for myself and my family to use in emergency exit from an auto in case of accident. I keep this one in the center console of my present auto.

by Grandma Mary from Redmond, OR

Super Help Verified Purchaser

Pros:

Well Constructed. Easy To Use. Safe. Stores Easily. Supports Weight. Lightweight.

Describe Yourself:

Caregiver.

This is a great item! 5 star..A sturdy, secure heavy duty handle to hold on to when entering and exiting car. There are no car parts to hold on to when Mom gets in. Stores right in door pocket, so it's right there ready to be used. This takes 2 seconds to insert in door clip, and makes it so much easier for Mom to release walker, and back in. It makes her feel secure, and eliminates possible trips or falls.Great for exiting car...An extra steady bar to hold on to.
