An easily openable one-piece RF interference shield and method of manufacturing the same that is cost efficient and easily adapted for use with existing electrical devices. The RF shield having a plurality of interconnected sidewalls, a substantially open bottom region, and a hingeably connected top cover portion, having a top cover latch and disposed along the top edge of one of the sidewalls. The top cover portion of the shield is adapted to hinge toward another one of the sidewalls such that the top cover latch engages a hole disposed on the other sidewall being engaged and completing a protective enclosure about electrical components and preventing those components from causing electromagnetic interferences. The RF shield of the present invention allows for easy opening of the top cover portion to provide access to the enclosure for rework or repair of the electrical components covered by the shield, without having to unsolder the unit from a substrate containing the electrical components. The plurality of sidewalls include a first mating sidewall that is connected to a first intermediate sidewall, the first intermediate sidewall being connected to a second intermediate sidewall, and the second intermediate sidewall being connected to a second mating sidewall.
