A container having an opening in a sidewall coverable by a hinged gate is described. The hinge for the gate is made by mating two, preferably identical, hinge bodies to thereby insert posts on the hinge into sockets residing, respectively, in the gate and sidewall. The hinge rotates with respect to the gate about a first axis, and rotates with respect to the sidewall about a second spaced parallel axis. The gate, in the opened position, lies flat against the sidewall and is entirely clear from the opening. The gate is latched in its closed position by a clip structure which passes through a first lip of the gate, then through a lip of the sidewall, then through a second lip of the gate.
