Abstract
The present invention is related to a door opener multitool. The door opener multitool includes an opener member and a case member. The opener member and the case member are removably attached. A recess in a middle member of the opener member engages a pair of raised members on the case member to secure the opener member to the case member. A user may hold the opener member from the handle, and use the hook to grab door handle, drawer handle or the like to open such devices without directly contacting those surfaces. Such configuration allows an extra level of hygiene by allowing the user to avoid contacting frequently touched surfaces. The tip may also include a blunt end sized to push buttons. The case member allows hygienic and safe storage of the door opener multitool.
