ABSTRACT:
A doorknob cover is provided having a receiving chamber configured to removably and snugly receive a doorknob so that rotation of the doorknob cover results in rotation of the doorknob. The doorknob cover further includes an annular sidewall radially extending out from the receiving chamber. The sidewall functions both to assist in rotation of the doorknob and to act as a protective covering from impact against the side of the doorknob. The doorknob cover also includes a bumper pad. The bumper pad extends from one side of the annular sidewall and is made of a soft resiliently deformable material. The bumper pad has a sufficient thickness to prevent damage of a wall or doorknob when the doorknob is impacted against a wall.
