Robust way to rotate an 18 inch square plate 90 degrees.

In general, what would be the most robust way to internally rotate a plate from horizontal to vertical (hinged on the bottom) that when in a vertical orientation is 18"(h) x 18"(w) x 3"(d).
We have researched cams, linkages, pulleys, acme screws, etc and are wondering what you think the most robust method of rotating a plate would be with very limited resources and no machining capabilities.
Thank you, so much for your time.
