Help with exiting a vehicle.,
Even after all that, I was still having a problem. I will note that the typical assist handle in most vehicles provides no assistance at all in exiting the vehicle. This is because they are inside the vehicle and can not be used to help exiting unless you are double jointed.
I did a lot of research and it came down to the «Handybar» or an assist strap that temporarily install through an open window and wraps around the door frame. The problem with the latter is that you need assistance to safely use it. Someone must be there to prevent the door from closing when you put weight on the strap. This more of a problem if you are parked on an up hill slope. The «Handybar» requires no assistance to use; even when parking on a hill. As long as the door detents will hold the door open, it is a one person operation.
I have only one negative which I plan to write the company about. It is my opinion that the handle design should be modified to raise the height of the handle when it is installed in the door latch. I have found that this latch is not at a uniform height in all cars. In some of the smaller vehicles I have tried it in, the handle is low enought to affect its useability. This is because of the vehicle size, the design places the door latch at a much lower height. However in my retro full size American four door sedan the product works very well indeed.

This thing gave me back my life.,
I had surgery on my leg, the end result being that my leg was painful and swollen, and I had absolutely no ability to move it in any way that made walking easy. Getting in and out of a car with a nearly useless, swollen leg was impossible.
When I was released from the hospital, I somehow managed to make it in the car. But getting OUT of the car was impossible! No, I’m not fat at all, but my husband tried and tried, but I guess I was just a dead weight. He finally had to call the first aid squad to pull me out.
That was so embarrassing that I did everything possible to avoid going in the car. And then I decided to see if there was any device that could help.
The first thing I got was a swivel seat device that makes it easy to «spin» in and out of the seat. The second device was the Standers Handybar.
Between the two of these things, I’m mobile again! The bar goes into the hook thing that latches your door. It’s very sturdy – nothing lightweight about it, and that means you can put your full weight on it, and it’s not going to collapse.
I put it in the door latch, lean on it with one hand and use the edge of the dashboard as the other, and ta da! I’m standing on my own two feet!
You can also use the handybar to smash a window and cut a seatbelt if you find yourself in an emergency situation. I think the manufacturer tried to find other uses for it that a consumer would use to justify its purchase.
As if it needed any more uses! It does what it was made to do, and it made my freedom possible (since I’ve got months to go while this stupid leg heals.) All I can say is God bless them for devising it. It’s the best thing to happen to me since I got out of the damned hospital!
