Metro Mobility & Support Products

Metro builds practical support aids for people who want a little more stability without turning to bulky, clinical-looking equipment. The name gets searched most often by drivers and passengers who struggle to lift themselves out of a low car seat — a common pain point for those with knee, hip, or back limitations, and for caregivers helping a loved one in and out of the vehicle.

The centerpiece here is the Metro Car Handle Plus (2098), a portable support handle that wedges into the U-shaped striker on the door frame — the metal loop the door latch closes onto. It requires no installation, no tools, and no permanent modification to your car. You simply insert it when you need a sturdy grip to push up from, then slip it back into the glove box or door pocket. Because it locks into the vehicle's own frame rather than the door panel or seat, it gives you a genuinely solid anchor point to bear weight against.

A frequent question is whether it fits every vehicle: the Car Handle Plus works with most cars, trucks, and SUVs that have a standard door latch striker, which covers the vast majority of passenger vehicles on the road. Many models also include a built-in seatbelt cutter and window-breaker point, making it a dual-purpose safety tool worth keeping within reach. This version ships in a 6-unit counter display, which suits retailers, senior living programs, or family caregivers stocking one for each vehicle in the household.
