A Motor control center containing so-called 'pilot' devices along with motor contactors and circuit interrupters mounts the pilot devices on a bracket that is received within the control center access door. The bracket is arranged to interact with the control center access door to automatically rotate the bracket in one direction when the access door is opened and to rotate the bracket in the opposite direction when the access door is closed.
