Patent attributes
A door assistant includes a generally wedge-shaped portion and a handle. The wedge-shaped portion includes a surface defined between a first lower end and a second higher end. The handle includes a generally vertically extending portion and a grasping portion. The handle operates between a first orientation in which the grasping portion is aligned with the wedge shaped portion, and a second orientation in which the grasping portion is aligned with a surface of a door when the door assistant is in use. The handle places the wedge-shaped portion in a desired position relative to a lower edge of a door by a user. The door assistant further includes a foot pad extending rearwardly from the wedge-shaped portion, and has a surface sloping downward from the second higher end to the first lower end.
