a coupling device associated with the door, the coupling device securing the door to the front side; and

a back side including an outlet, the outlet being fluidly coupled to the internal cavity,

wherein the back side is positioned opposite to the front side about a central axis of the internal cavity.

2. The BOP of claim 1 , wherein the hinge further comprises:

a hinge body; and

a hinge coupling;

wherein the hinge coupling is coupled to the door and the hinge body is coupled to a body of the BOP, the rotation of the door being driven by rotation of the hinge coupling about an axis at an interface between the hinge body and the hinge coupling.

3. The BOP of claim 2 , wherein the hinge coupling is secured to the door via receptacles arranged along at least a portion of a perimeter of the door, the receptacles arranged to enable the hinge coupling to be secured to both a first side of the door and to a second side of the door.

4. The BOP of claim 2 , further comprising:

a second hinge body; and

a second hinge coupling;

wherein the hinge body and the hinge coupling are positioned at a top of the door; and

wherein the second hinge body and the second hinge coupling are positioned at a bottom of the door.

5. The BOP of claim 1 , wherein the door further comprises a reinforcement feature arranged on an exterior face of the door.

6. The BOP of claim 1 , wherein the door assembly further comprises:

an extension extending from an inner face of the door; and

a T-bar coupled to a recess of the extension, the T-bar extending along a door axis.

7. The BOP of claim 6 , wherein the door further comprises:

a seal groove arranged radially outward of the extension.

8. A blowout preventer (BOP) for controlling pressure within a wellbore, comprising:

an internal cavity;

a front side including a door opening, the door opening providing access to the internal cavity;

a door associated with the door opening, the door being movable between a first position and a second position, the door blocking access to the internal cavity in the first position and enabling access to the internal cavity in the second position; and

a hinge coupled to the door, the hinge comprising:

a hinge body, the hinge body secured to a body of the BOP; a hinge coupling coupled to the door; and

a rotation mechanism arranged at an interface between the hinge body and the hinge coupling, the rotation mechanism securing the door in the second position or in a third position, the third position enabling access to the internal cavity,

wherein the rotation mechanism further comprises:

a body region having a first end and a second end;

a first opening at the first end; and

a second opening at the second end;

wherein the first and second openings are configured to receive a pin, the pin engaging the second opening and a receptacle in the hinge coupling, the door being secured in the second position when the pin engages the first opening and in the third position when the pin engages the second opening.

9. The BOP of claim 8 , wherein the hinge coupling is secured to the door via receptacles arranged along at least a portion of a perimeter of the door, the receptacles arranged to enable the hinge coupling to be secured to both a first side of the door and to a second side of the door.

10. The BOP of claim 8 , further comprising:

a second hinge coupled to the door, the second hinge arranged at a bottom of the door and the hinge arranged at a top of the door.

11. The BOP of claim 8 , further comprising:

a plurality of apertures formed in the door, the plurality of apertures configured to align with apertures of the BOP to secure the door to the front side.

12. The BOP of claim 8 , wherein the hinge coupling is perpendicular to the front side in the second position.

13. The BOP of claim 8 , wherein the hinge coupling is parallel to the front side in the third position.

14. The BOP of claim 8 , further comprising:

an outlet extending through a back side, opposite the front side.

15. The BOP of claim 8 , wherein the door further comprises:

a T-bar extension extending along a door axis on an inner face of the door.

16. A door assembly for providing access to an internal cavity of a blowout preventer (BOP), comprising:

a door associated with a door opening, the door being movable between a first position and a second position, the door blocking access to the internal cavity in the first position and enabling access to the internal cavity in the second position; and

a hinge coupled to the door, the hinge comprising:

a hinge body;

a hinge coupling coupled to the door; and

a rotation mechanism arranged at an interface between the hinge body and the hinge coupling, the rotational mechanism securing the door in the second position or in a third position, the third position enabling access to the internal cavity,

wherein the rotation mechanism further comprises:

a body region having a first end and a second end; a first opening at the first end; and

a second opening at the second end;

wherein the first and second openings are configured to receive a pin, the pin engaging the second opening and a receptacle in the hinge coupling, the door being secured in the second position when the pin engages the first opening and in the third position when the pin engages the second opening.

17. The door assembly of claim 16 , wherein the hinge coupling is secured to the door via receptacles arranged along at least a portion of a perimeter of the door, the receptacles arranged to enable the hinge coupling to be secured to both a first side of the door and to a second side of the door.

18. The door assembly of claim 16 , wherein the hinge coupling is perpendicular to the front face in the second position and parallel to the front face in the third position.
