Abstract: A lock system for a door comprises one or more elongated members adapted to translate axially in a door to be moved in and out of engagement into a lock catch of a door frame. A lock mechanism is received in a mortise of the door and having a handle actuatable to displace at least one driver in translation. A depth adjustment adaptor comprises a interface connected to the elongated member, with or without a joint with at least one degree of freedom connecting the interface to the driver to adjust a depth of the interface relative to the driver and to a lateral surface of the door to actuate the axial translation of the elongated member by movement of the driver.

Abstract: A multipoint locking mechanism for locking a window sash in a closed position in a window frame. The locking mechanism is of the type having a slider portion translating longitudinally in a window frame in response to an actuation of a handle to engage at least two engagement members of the slider portion with corresponding keeper portions in the window sash for locking the window sash to the window frame. At least one of the at least two engagement members is a cam wedge having at least one ramped portion and a rest portion. The cam wedge is positioned on the slider portion such that the at least one ramped portion abuts the corresponding keeper portion during a translation of the slider portion, and is guided by the corresponding keeper portion to abut the rest portion thereagainst to prevent a displacement of the window sash toward an open position thereof.
