A container for a refrigerator in which the container comprises a pan having an access opening, which is covered by a door pivotally mounted to the pan. The pan is slidably mounted within the refrigerator in a conventional manner. The door has opposing fingers extending from the side edges thereof and a hook extending from the top edge thereof. As the pan is slid outwardly from the refrigerator, the fingers abut liner studs extending from the inner liner of the refrigerator to partially rotate the door from a closed position toward an open position. On the continued sliding of the pan, the hook abuts a sloped surface of the liner to continue the rotation of the door completely into the open position.
