the top of the wedge portion 110 for a total depth of 50 millimeters the top portion of the handle 120 is approximately 10 millimeters thick the downward portion of the handle 140 extends approximately 50 millimeters from top to bottom and is 8 millimeters wide however other handle lengths are possible and generally the downward portion of the handle 140 is of sufficient length and or weight to counterbalance the weight of the wedge portion 110 when the handle 140 and the wedge portion 110 are hanging on opposite sides of the hinge alternatively the handle 140 may further be constructed to include a locking member not shown at the bottom of the downward portion of the handle 140 i e on the end nearest the floor such that the locking member grabs onto the bottom of the hinge to further aid in preventing the wedge shaped device 100 from falling off of the hinge in addition although the handle 120 is illustrated as fixedly attached to the wedge portion 110 the handle 120 may instead be removably connected to the wedge portion 110 or the handle 120 may be slidably connected to the wedge portion 110 such that the downward portion of the handle 140 may be moved closer to or farther away from the wedge portion 110 in order to accommodate different door and or hinge configurations by sliding the wedge portion 110 toward.
