Door Grip - Custom

Uploading here in order to share with others I work with. We recently moved into a new office space and the door handles are pretty obnoxious. These simply create a sturdy cover for the part of the door handle we most use and that is also most painful due to sharp corners and heavy doors.

There are three handles/grips. One is square, one has a ball at the top and one has a hockey puck shaped handle at the top. The hockey puck is my favorite because it is easy to print. Most folks like the ball top handle, but it is more tricky to print. The square one is okay, but is still a little uncomfortable.

I recommend printing upside down with 2mm supports. This gives a nice clean line to the clip edges at the bottom. I sliced the sphere in half and printed that one upside down as well so I had a nice flat surface to print from. After it finished I just glued the top of the sphere to the handle.

These are obviously for our specific door handles consisting of square tubing sections. Most handles are 32mm and 38.5mm, and these grips fit those handles. These won't fit the handles with integrated locks as the tubes for the locks are larger. The tolerance is pretty tight for the handles these are designed to fit in order to give a sturdy feel.
