A computer chassis includes a door mounted on the chassis. A hinge pivotally interconnects the door and the chassis. The hinge has a first end connected to the chassis and a second end connected to the door. A pair of spaced apart resilient receivers are provided on the chassis. A cam extension on the hinge is engaged for flexing the resilient receivers in response to pivotal movement of the hinge.
