Door Butler® is
a simple device mostly used for assisting disabled people having mobility
devices such as wheelchairs & walkers.
Door Butler®
creates both a door closer and opener to hold the door for receiving guests or deliveries, carrying groceries, unobstructed wheelchair and walker access, children pets, moving, etc...
|
 |
Door Butler® operates on a very simple concept. With numerous patented upgrades, it uses the same reliable power of a common door closer.
Door Butler® relies the Red Thing, the only lifetime non-slip tab to hold the door to any position determined by the
tab. |
 |
However,
unlike a regular closer device, the Door Butler® lets you close the door while the tab is still engaged on the closer
rod. By engaging the tab then closing the door, low energy is created and stored inside the spring
assembly.
When the door is unlatched and the user gives a push, the low energy is released which assists to reopen the door to the previously held position for the tab.
|
 |
The Door Butler® will open and hold doors up to approx. 85
degrees.
To close the door under normal usage, simply push or pull the door back to the closed
position.
For people with disabilities using mobility devices, and special kit includes a pull chain system for closing the door for easier access. |
DOOR BUTLER® CAN BE INSTALLED IN ABOUT 30 MINUTES!

Door Butler® has been designed for maximum strength with
reliable components.
Unlike a regular hold-open tab that often slips, the Red Thing will never slip and is guaranteed with $5,000 prize! See Contest Page.

The clip plate offers a 6-screw attachment onto the doorjamb, while still allowing the jamb bracket to be easily removed for widening the doorway when moving furniture and
appliances.
The Door Butler® can be attached directly over worn screw holes from a previous door closer! No need to fill any old stripped screw holes!
The clip plate requires a minimal doorjamb width: only 2.25" wide! |
 |
The spring assembly can be bypassed and easily locked to allow the door operator to function as a normal closer device, such as when requiring the door to be firmly held open without any
movement.

Also, the time spent waiting for the
door to close has been reduced. This resolves the need to hurriedly force the door
closed, such as for locking the door when leaving the house.
 |
Door Butler® can be installed onto most any out-swing storm or screen door type, at any location: top, middle, or bottom
mount.
For
people using mobility devices and elderly, we recommend installing it
just below the lock set using the support bar.
Placing
Door Butler® in a mid-location
creates
easier access for changing it's settings, and is better for door balance.
Use Door Butler® to control many
residential doors: storm & screen doors,
fly doors, garage & shop doors, pet accessible doors, or any other door that needs controlling! |
Use the optional Door Butler® support bar for full-glass doors,
and for disability assistance & elderly people.
