Abstract
A network cabinet is provided comprising a door and a handle, which is mounted to the door and moveable between a first position and a second position. A retractable hinge pin is interconnected with the handle through a rod, which has a plurality of apertures associated therewith. The hinge pin is in an extended position with the handle in the first position and in a retracted position with the handle in the second position. A pawl is interconnected with the door and has at least one tooth protruding from a first end. The tooth engages at least one of the apertures with the door in an open position, thus preventing extension of the hinge pin from the retracted position.
