ABSTRACT:
A cabinet comprising a plurality of walls including a side wall, the walls being joined together to provide a cabinet framework having an open front and an open interior. A door is mounted to the cabinet framework and is movable between a closed position in which the door at least partially covers the open front of the framework and a pocketed position in which the door is received within the open interior of the framework and adjacent to the side wall. The foor is mounted to upper and lower guide frames which are mounted to the cabinet framework adjacent to the side wall. Upper and lower ends of a carrier are slidably mounted to the upper and lower guide frames and the door is pivotally mounted to the carrier. A pair of upper wheels is mounted to the upper end of the carrier and in rolling contact with the upper guide frame. A pair of lower wheels is mounted to the lower end of the carrier and in rolling contact with the lower guide frame. One of the pair of upper wheels and one of the pair of lower wheels are load bearing. The carrier and the door reciprocate along the upper and lower guide frames as the door is moved between the open and pocketed positions.
