Abstract

The invention relates to device (1) for accommodating objects, in particular for use in an airplane, comprising a housing (5) and a door (18) which is pivotable about a pivot axis (PA) between an open position and a closed position. The door (18)is movable in a direction which extends substantially parallel to the pivot axis (PA) between a locked position and/an unlocked position. The door (18) comprises a locking edge (182) and the housing (5) comprises a door post (101), wherein the locking edge (182) engages with the door post (101) in the locked position to lock the door in its closed position and allow movement of the door (18) in the direction which extends substantially parallel to the pivot axis (PA) between the locked and the unlocked position.
