ABSTRACT:
A door knob lever for use by disabled persons to assist in turning a door knob. A truncated bracket including a central section and two sloping sections extending from the central section is provided with a handle extending, substantially at right angles from one side of the central section of the truncated bracket and a hook plate extending, also substantially at right angles, from the opposite side of the central section of the truncated bracket and extending in the opposite direction as the handle. Friction pads are secured to the two sloping sections of the truncated bracket to grip a door knob when the hook plate is about the neck of the door knob to cause movement of the ball of the door knob by movement of the lever.
