Mobility Friendly Key and Gear Shift Extensions
Have you ever had trouble getting a grip on your vehicle key or key fob? There are a variety of types of vehicle key, key fob, and gear shift extensions available to assist in starting your vehicle. Below you will find some useful information on extensions to help you decide if a vehicle key, key fob, or gear shift extension would be a good solution for your mobility needs.
Why would I want a key/gear shift extension?
Do you have trouble turning your key once it’s in the ignition or reaching the ignition or the gear shift? A key extension would allow you to change the angle of the key so you can easily complete the turn. This is also very helpful with a lack of grip. The extension will also allow you to easily reach the ignition if reach is a challenge, this also applies to the gear shift extension.
How do they work?
The extension for a gear shift will attach to your shifter allowing a person to reach the gear shift with greater ease and can be adjusted to make changing gears easier. For the key extensions they hook onto your key and come in segmented sections, so you can change the angle where you can hold onto the key.
Do extensions work on all vehicle makes?
Not a problem! There are a variety of key extension adapters, finding a
local mobility dealer near you and they’ll help find exactly what you’re looking for.
