Abstract
Plastic window and doors are effectively latched to surrounding plastic frames by a distributed series of latches that are carried on a common carrier for simultaneous shifting between latched and unlatched conditions from a single point. A series of latch pins mates with an opposing series of cammed apertures that engage the pins when relatively shifted by a single turn of one actuator.
