## Abstract

A profiled section includes a first surface and a second surface, such that the second surface has an opening to at least partially receive an element of a locking member. The wing is structured and arranged parallel to the second surface. Further, an element is coupled to the first and second surfaces and to the wing. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A profiled section comprising:
a first surface;
a second surface having an opening structured and arranged to at least partially receive at least one element of a locking member;
at least one wing arranged parallel to said second surface;
an element coupled to said first and second surfaces and to said wing.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 1,
wherein the profiled section is tubular.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 1,
wherein the at least one element of a locking member is an element of an electromagnetic locking member.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 3,
wherein said element of said electromagnetic locking member is a counterplate.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 1,
wherein said at least one wing comprises two lateral portions and a median portion that is thicker than said lateral portions.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 1,
wherein said at least one wing includes one or more recess.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 1,
wherein said at least one wing is coupled to said at least one element of a locking member.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The profiled section in accordance with claim 7,
wherein said wing is couplable to said at least one element of a locking member by at least one of a screw, a screw jack, and a flexible mounting element.

### Claim 9

An apparatus for a door or bay frame comprising:
a first surface;
a second surface having an opening;
at least one wing is parallel to said second surface;
at least one counterplate at least partially positioned in said opening and movably attached to said at least one wing;
at least one element coupled to said first and second surfaces and to said at least one wing.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 9,
wherein said at least one counterplate is at least one element of an electromagnetic locking member.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 9,
wherein said at least one wing comprises at least one lateral portion and a median portion, such that said median portion is thicker than said at least one lateral portion.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 9,
wherein said wing is couplable to said counterplate by at least one of a screw, a screw jack, and a flexible mounting element.

### Claim 13

An apparatus for a door or bay frame comprising:
a first surface;
a second surface having an opening;
at least one wing is structured and arranged parallel to said second surface;
at least one counterplate is at least partially positioned in said opening and movably coupled to said at least one wing; and
wherein said wing is arranged to prevent deforming of said first surface from forces exerted on said at least one counterplate.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 13,
wherein the apparatus is adapted to receive an electromagnetic locking member.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 14,
wherein said counterplate is at least one element of said electromagnetic locking member.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 13,
wherein the profiled section is tubular.

### Claim 17 (depends on 13)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 13,
wherein said at least one wing has one or more portions, such that said at least one portion has a varying thickness parallel to said second surface.

### Claim 18 (depends on 13)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 13,
wherein said at least one wing includes one or more recess.

### Claim 19 (depends on 13)

The apparatus in accordance with claim 13,
wherein said wing is couplable to said counterplate by at least one of a screw, a screw jack, and a flexible mounting element.

### Claim 20 (depends on 13)
