The invention is an enclosure for containing several printed circuit boards. Detechable brackets for mounting the enclosure to a rack, detachable latching door hinges and a combination of detachable members are assembled in an improved housing for detachably enclosing mounted printed circuit boards and other modular components and includes a base, a cover having a top and depending sides provided with slots; and vertical card guide brackets and a pivotable door. These detachable members are formed so as to to latch together into an integral assembly. The door when pivoted to the open position is held as a tray in the horizontal plane of the base and does not drop below the base, with a peripheral rim of the door serving as sides of the tray.
