Handsfree Dispenser

Our hands touch so many things throughout the day. They help us carry items to and fro, they push buttons and hold us steady when we have to cling to handrails and stair rails. As a result, they become full of germs and viruses that come from people who are infected.

When we forget to wash up before eating, we can get very sick. That is why there are many gadgets today that can help minimize touching infected items. One of these are hands free door openers that eliminate the need to touch door handles that other people have already laid their hands on.

     Who doesn’t have to use a public restroom at one time or another? The answer is just about everyone or We The Public. We have become more aware of germs in restrooms probably because of the threat of MRSA, the methicillin resistant staph aureus, bacteria. After washing our hands and drying them, it becomes apparent that we then have to exit by touching the door. Technology has solved that problem by providing us with a variety of touch free devices that can open  doors for us.    Some facilities like airports and movie theatres have eliminated doors altogether by installing the “S” curve entry and exit.

     Motion sensors and remote controls are automated answers to the hands free door opener. There is also a method that uses a foot bracket on the door bottom whereby one can step and pull the door.  Arm grasping handles attached to doors avoid hand contact thereby preventing cross-contamination.  Exiting a public restroom is the weak link in the chain of hygiene.  A hands free door opener is the solution.
