The SafeZone no-contact door opener is a hygiene-focused aftermarket accessory for use on virtually any door to help eliminate the need for users to make direct contact with [commonly touch surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-k1). The unit will work with any door that has a [turning handle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aqara-smart-lock-u300) and works by being attached onto the knob in order to maintain a secure fit. The door can then be opened by simply pressing the foot lever to prevent users from coming into contact with the handle to keep it free from germs.

The SafeZone no-contact door opener comes in four models to choose from including Residential, Commercial, Construction and All-Metal Commercial, while two different footpad options are also available for use in different scenarios.
