ABSTRACT:
A door includes a pair of pivot pins each positioned on the outer surface of a respective, facing edge-mounted resilient flange. Each resilient flange is adapted for flexible displacement relative to facing lateral portions of a support panel in which the door is to be mounted, while each pivot pin is adapted for insertion within a respective mounting aperture in each of said support panel facing portions. Each support panel facing portion is provided with a ramp positioned adjacent to a respective mounting aperture, with the taper of the ramps providing decreasing inter-ramp spacing in the direction of pivoting displacement of the door as it is opened. Positioned adjacent to each of the pivot pins on the outer lateral surface of each resilient flange and arranged so as to engage a corresponding ramp is a cam having a first beveled and a second flat outer surface.
