Abstract: A hinge support includes a support plate that defines a first aperture and a second aperture. A pivot has an anchor arm that is disposed within the first aperture defined by the support plate. The pivot has a raised surface, a recessed surface, and a graduated surface that is defined between the raised surface and the recessed surface. A cap is disposed over and operably coupled to the pivot. The cap has a projecting surface, a receiving surface, and a sloped surface that is defined between the projecting surface and the receiving surface. An engagement plate defines an opening and is disposed around the cap. The cap and the engagement plate are configured to translate between a first position and a second position relative to the support plate.
