ABSTRACT:
A cabinet includes at least two doors located on opposite sides of the cabinet. The cabinet includes an interlocking means comprising a pair of release mechanisms, locking mechanisms, and latching mechanism. The latching mechanism functions to retain the doors in the closed position unless activated by an operator, allowing the doors to be opened. The locking mechanism prevents the latching mechanism from being activated when the opposing door is open. The release mechanism communicates the position of the door to the locking mechanism associated with the other door.
