Assistive Key Turner Device

The 'Key Turner' model is an open assistive technology device designed for individuals with missing digits, reduced dexterity, or grip strength, enabling them to easily insert and turn keys in locks.

Usage: This device is particularly beneficial for people with arthritis, as it can be operated with minimal grip strength. It accommodates users with varying dexterity, allowing for use with one to three fingers.

Construction Features: The device fits comfortably in a pocket and features a fluorescent color for easy identification in low-light conditions. It requires one 4mm bolt, two 4mm nuts, and one 4mm washer to secure various keys within its recessed area. A short slot behind the key handle allows for compatibility with different handle sizes.

Printing Recommendations: For optimal results, it is advisable to use durable materials. A modification can be made to include a loop for attachment to a traditional lanyard or keychain.
