Abstract: A housing assembly includes a housing (100) and a door (102). The housing has a first opening (115) and includes a selective call receiver (200). The door is coupled to the housing for gaining access to the selective call receiver by way of the first opening. The door is slidable between first and second positions with the housing, wherein the first position the door is latched, and wherein the second position the door is unlatched and pivots to gain access to the first opening. The door includes a plurality of springless latches (107), wherein each springless latch comprises at least two arms (106), each arm having an external detent (108), and an internal detent (110). Additionally, the housing includes a corresponding snap post (112) for latching to a corresponding springless latch in the first position.

Abstract: A housing assembly (100) includes a housing having a selective call receiver (200) therein, a raised ridge (108) coupled to the housing, the raised ridge having under cut side walls (115, 117) forming a tapered recess (114) open at one end. Additionally, the housing assembly includes a latch (106) coupled to the housing, the latch centered about the under cut side walls and having a detent (110) at an end opposite to the raised ridge. An elongated mounting clip (120) coupled to a base plate (118) is used for engagement with the housing. To accomplish this, the base plate is dimensioned to insert within the under cut side walls of the raised ridge and to engage with the detent for latching the elongated mounting clip to the housing.
