    Abstract: A retrofit lever handle used by a disabled person for turning a door knob on a door is provided and consists of an inner member which fits into an outer member that has a curved arm and tab thereon. The inner member is adjustable to grip the door knob on the door so that any portion of the disabled person can make contact with the curved arm while the tab will prevent slippage off of the arm. Movement of the arm will turn the door knob thus enabling the disabled person to open and close the door.
