For people with numbness in their hands or limited wrist strength and limited dexterity, there is a new “key” to unlocking locks. This item, called the Key Turner 2, can hold up to two keys and allow a person to have a larger surface to unlock different locks. It has a built-up grip for easier grasping and allows for more leverage for turning the key. These keys can fold into the handle when not in use. The standard Key Turner can hold one key, and the Key Turner 2 has spaces for two keys.
For more information on the Key Turner 2 or to learn more about other assistive technology to assist with living independently, please reach out to Jenesis Lindbo, Independent Living Specialist, by calling (800) 228-3287 extension 222 or by emailing jlindbo@cilww.com.
There are various services available through the assistive technology program at C.I.L.W.W. as a part of the WisTech Assistive Technology Program. Our agency can provide information on WisTech’s alternative financing options (WisLoan and Telework) per request.
