Description

The Purehold LEVER is a self-cleaning, antibacterial door handle cover, specifically designed for lever handles.

Please see FAQs for the list of lever handles LSC has confirmed this product fits.

Using silver ion technology, the coating combats pathogens deposited onto the surface by users and then works continuously, 24/7. Aimed at reducing cross-contamination from one user to the next, the Purehold LEVER is easily installed onto door handles by simply "snapping" into place in under 30 seconds. Please see FAQs for a list of handles LSC has confirmed this cover fits.

How it Works

It's as simple as 1,2,3

  1. Microbes are deposited onto the door handle by users.
  2. Silver ions (Ag) penetrate the cell membrane of the microbe.
  3. The ions suffocate the microbe and attack it's DNA to prevent reproduction.

Common microbes found on door furniture include E-coli, Salmonella, Camplylobacteur and Staph Aureus.
