A handle device is attached to the drawer frame so that the employee may horizontally extend and retract the drawer frame between the exterior doors to the customer. The drawer frame includes a bottom cam plate which has opposed camming slots, and the exterior doors have cam followers secured thereto that mate within the slots in such a manner that when the drawer frame is extended the exterior doors are progressively opened and when the drawer frame is retracted the doors are closed.
