With standards for accessibility in public buildings tightening, inventions like this 'REDesign Exit Door' are invaluable additions to institutional interiors. With the possibility of fire or other emergencies, this simple product designed by Chen Guan-Yuan provides a reachable means of egress in the event of an evacuation.
By taking the widely used horizontal bar handle on many emergency exit doors, the 'REDesign Exit Door' cleverly flips the rail vertically so that it can be reached, operated and the door can be opened from any height.
