A: People are accustomed to opening a door with their hands so the first couple of times may feel a bit awkward. Most users adapt quickly and then use the StepNpull every time.
1. As you approach the door, position your body as though you were going to use the door handle.
2. If you would use your left hand to pull the door handle then the left foot will be used. If you would use your right hand to pull the door handle then the right foot will be used.
3. Place your foot on the top of the StepNpull , press down just enough to gain traction.
4. Pull your foot and leg back as though you were taking a step. Simply step and pull.
5. Typically enough door momentum will be gained to actually swing the door open and out of your way.
6. Depending on your shoe type, you may want to try different shoe angles or positions in order to find the one that yields the most grip.
