Abstract
A door assembly for use with a computing device that includes a housing that defines an opening to an interior of the housing. The door assembly also includes a cover positionable over the opening in a secure closed position to help prohibit access to the interior of the housing and away from the opening in an open position to allow access to the interior of the housing. The door assembly also includes a flange assembly connected to the cover and coupled to the housing to translate within a cavity in the housing and create a hinge about which the cover moves from the closed position to the open position. The door assembly further includes an opening mechanism to release the cover from the secure closed position to the open position.
