A slidable locking device is described that enables rotational movement like a hinge and also provides for selective locking. The slidable locking device may include a fixed hinge part, a rotatable hinge part, and a slidable hinge part. The fixed hinge part may include a first set of protrusions and openings. The slidable hinge part may also include a second corresponding set of protrusions and openings. The rotatable hinge part may also include a third corresponding set of protrusions and openings. The slidable hinge part may be slidably coupled to the fixed hinge part. The rotating hinge part may be rotatably coupled to the fixed hinge part. As the slidable hinge part moves longitudinally with respect to the fixed hinge part, the second set of protrusions and gaps alternatingly align with the first set of protrusions and gaps. This action may define a locked position and an unlocked position.
