A joint for an outer cabinet of an enclosure, the joint comprising:
- a first panel having a first flange extending away from the first panel;
- a second panel having a first flange extending away from the second panel;
- and
- a slide channel including a first flange interconnected to a second flange and a third flange interconnected with the second flange, the second flange interconnected to a hem, wherein the first flange and the interconnected hem and second flange define a channel structured to receive the first flange of the first panel and the first flange of the second panel to couple the first panel to the second panel, and wherein the third flange extends away from the second flange of the slide channel in a substantially perpendicular manner.
