Description

PDF

This is a simple door you can create by laser cutting a plastic of choice (I used 1/8" clear acrylic), attaching a lip to the bottom for structural support and installing a two-piece latch for locking it in place. None of the printed pieces should need support.

I joined the latch pieces together by self-threading a 16mm M2 bolt through the combined hole. The bottom lip uses two 8mm M3 bolts w/ nuts.

The tabs on the door should snap in place snugly when placing the door - given variations from case to case, you may need to slightly shift some plastic around. Mine has some resistance when fitting, but it pops into place relatively easily.
