Hands free! in the museum, at work and anywhere-with the canesitter® for the blind

One snap, and the white cane clamps.

Here you can see the canesitter in the museum in gold with brown bracket
Here you can see the canesitter in the museum in gold with brown bracket. The Canesitter S holds all commercially available white canes (aka blind canes), up to approx. ø 13.5 mm.

Imagine you need both hands available right now, but one hand is unfortunately busy holding the white cane or clamping it underneath. If you need a cane for a safety purpose and you want to get rid of it temporarily at every exhibit in the museum or at the voting booth for writing, or at the exercise equipment in the fitness center, you will search for a solution in vain most of the time.

The English word “cane” is used for the long cane for the blind. The “sitter” is a friendly caretaker. This is how the name “Canesitter” came up.

For walking sticks + white canes for the blind:
The ‘Canesitter +G’

The Canesitter S accepts all commercially available white canes (aka canes for the blind) up to approx. ø 13.5 mm. The Canesitter “+G” accepts both, white canes and walking sticks (aka hand cane, walking aid or crutch).

The Canesitter +G is available in the same colors as the Canesitter S, namely black, white, grey, blue, red, brown and yellow. With clips in black, white or gray. For orders of 15 pieces or more, other colors for the housing or clips can also be supplied.

Size comparison between the Canesitter +G (left) and the Canesitter S (right). Due to its size, the Canesitter +G can hold a walking stick or one or two canes for the blind. The height of 13 mm is the same for both cane holders.

Measurements: super compact

Option: Substructure adapter

The Canesitter can also be fitted underneath the table top or console. Even on inclined surfaces (20°). The substructure adapter can be attached from below with two screws or with mounting adhesive and the canesitter is then screwed into the adapter.

As the above examples suggest, there are many other situations in which the white cane may need to be left aside quickly:

In the restaurant, at every cloakroom, at home, in the office, in the changing room, at the information counter, at every supermarket checkout, in the WC, at the advice desk, desk, service point, ATM, bank counter, bus, train, tram, counter and much more. Can you think of anything else? Send me your ideas via e-mail!

Inserting the clip is quick and easy.
