Abstract
A telephone terminal base for vertical mounting and with a front closure that is movable about a horizontal hinge axis to open and close the base. The hinge structure is formed by cooperable hinge parts on front and rear closures, the hinge parts slidable one upon the other along an arc of a circle centered upon the hinge axis. The hinge axis is positioned forwardly of the base and with the hinge parts spaced from the hinge axis, they are disposed entirely within the base. The front closure is preferably hinged to move downwardly from a vertical closed position.
