InventHelp Develops Device to Assist in Hanging Sheet Rock/Drywall
InventHelp has developed a new device designed to facilitate the hanging of sheet rock or drywall. The invention aims to eliminate the need for assistance from another person.
PITTSBURGH, Sept. 14, 2026 – InventHelp has introduced a new device intended to simplify the installation of sheet rock or drywall. The device, named "HANDY MAN," is designed to allow individuals to hang drywall panels without the need for a second person.
The invention reportedly stems from a painter's experience who recognized a need for a more efficient and independent method for this task. Traditionally, hanging drywall often requires at least two individuals, which can slow down project timelines and increase labor costs.
While specific operational details of the "HANDY MAN" were not provided in the announcement, the company states that it removes the necessity of having an assistant. This is expected to particularly benefit smaller renovation projects and solo tradespeople.
InventHelp is a company that assists inventors in developing and marketing new products. Further information regarding the commercialization or availability of the "HANDY MAN" device (CTK-1999) has not yet been released.
