About the solution

This innovation is a daily living aid for a quadriplegic, a person with arthritics, carpal tunnel, finger amputee or anyone with a hand disability.

As a quadriplegic he has these on everything from his pants, sweatshirts, jackets and his backpack. The zipper loop makes it easier to zip zippers. This adaptation can be used on any zipper with a hole.
