The handle features a series of paddles on either side of the door rather than handles that need to be gripped, which streamlines access for the elderly, children or those with mobility impairments/disabilities. The door handle also prevents jamming which can occur over time to ensure it will work for many years upon being installed. The Anylock 'milda' push-pull door lock has a universal design that's easy to install and features two lock types to choose from. The antibacterial surface will prevent germs from lingering on the surface between uses. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 96% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 13% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Push-pull Door Locks:** Disruptive opportunity: Innovate on antibacterial designs and an intuitive 'push-pull' handle system for easier access in public buildings such as hospitals, schools or offices. - **Universal Design:** Disruptive opportunity: Create a line of universal products that streamline tasks for disabled individuals, for example, making everyday tools like scissors more accessible and ergonomic. - **Home Accessibility:** Disruptive opportunity: Offer personalized home consultations to increase the accessibility of homes for those with disabilities and the elderly, including installation of automatic controls and smart door locks. ### Who This Affects Most - **Architecture:** Disruptive opportunity: Design building systems with features that are user-friendly, accessible, convenient and compatible with a diverse range of needs such as push-pull handle systems and antibacterial surfaces. - **Home Improvement:** Disruptive opportunity: Focus on developing universal design products that address the varying needs of the elderly, disabled and children, such as ergonomic tools, easy-to-use controls and adjustable home systems. - **Healthcare:** Disruptive opportunity: Improve the patient experience by incorporating innovative designs, such as accessible push-pull door locks and antibacterial surfaces that minimize the spread of infection, across medical facilities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hands-Free Home Doors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milda-evolve-door.md) - [Smart Matter-Enabled Door Handles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aqara-smart-lock-u300.md) - [Intuitive Access Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraloq-latch-5.md) - [Tubular Handle Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lockly-styla.md) - [Quad-Access Connected Doorknobs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-k1.md) - [Connected Interior Door Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schlage-encode-lever-lock.md) - [Hands-Free Door Handle Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/safe-lever-door-opener.md) - [Discreet Retrofit Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-linus-smart-lock-2-lite.md) - [Minimalist Biometric Door Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aqara-u100-smart-lock.md)
