As a college student who lives off campus, I move a lot of furniture from one place to another. One of the biggest problems I have ran into is that the furniture could not make it through the door and then we need to take the door off the hinges. A company called Duro-Med Industries make an expandable door hinge meant to help people in wheel chairs. This is a simple design that has a lot of potential, not only does it help the handicapped, it also can help a regular person on any day.
