A lever mechanism for sealing a telecommunications closure includes a plurality of hinge elements; a leveraging element extending upwardly from each hinge element; an arm section extending from the leveraging element; a biasing element downwardly extending from the arm section; and a handle coupled to the biasing element such that upon application of a compressive force to at least a portion of the handle, each hinge element, each leveraging element, each arm section, and each biasing element moves, allowing the lever mechanism to change from a non-actuated position to an actuated position. The lever mechanism is further configured to couple with a spring-activated element and environmentally seal the telecommunications closure.
