Argh ... you got me ... Williams did use over/under doors (after a fashion) ... just not the typical, slim, integrated under/over than I think the OP had in mind.

Joust, Roboton and Stargate did use a single door with a seperate (it was seperate, wasn't it) lower door to access the coinbox. Since I wasn't retrieving the coinboxes and don't have a Williams upright, I missed the lower access door when I responded.

Yeah, you're right. I wasn't thinking that one piece over/under design when I replied, just having 2 separate doors. My Robotron cabinet has them as 2 separate doors. The bottom coin bucket door is wider than the coin slot door.

CheffoJeffo:
It's kinda funny since I did recognize that my Joust cocktail had an over/under design (again, not single unit), but totally missed that the uprights had a lower door.

Oops

GAJoe:
I prefer the single door design for what it's worth.  If I were actually operating an arcade, maybe I'd prefer the other style.
