Abstract

Plastic window and doors are effectively latched to surrounding plastic frames by a distributed series of latches pins that are carried on a common carrier opposite and coaxial with a like series of apertures 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.
