Abstract
A strengthened hardened telescoping load carrying device includes a container and a door, with the door being attached to the container by means of an interlocking rail and cradle, or by means of an interlocking set of J-channels. Pins are inserted through holes in the interlocking elements to maintain the interlocking elements in alignment. The interlocking elements on the container and on the door engage with increasing force in the event of an explosion within the device.
