ABSTRACT:
A door handle extension apparatus which improves existing door handle/locksets specifically extending the handle portion of a door handle/lockset thus allowing unincumbered use of the handle portion of the lockset. In one embodiment, the invention utilizes an extender which moves the handle portion away from the door. A shaft located within the extender transfers the force applied to the handle portion to the latch locksets located within the door portion. In another embodiment, a conventional handle portion of a lockset has been modified to include an elongated neck which spaces the handle away from the door to accommodate mini-blinds and the like.
