Abstract: A device for leveling and aligning tiles and method for leveling and aligning tiles are disclosed. In one embodiment, the leveling device includes a body and two spaced and parallel strip members extending transversely from the body. Each of the spaced and parallel strip members extend to the front and rear of the body. Two opposing lateral open windows are formed in the body. A breakaway section is defined along the body. A wedge device is provided for penetrating one or more of the two opposing lateral open windows and exerting a force on the tiles for leveling them relative to each other.

Abstract: A self-locking mechanism that is attachable to a panel is provided. The mechanism includes a structure defining a void therein. There is also an opening in the structure coinciding with an end of the void. A pin is positioned within the void and a pin head of the pin is positioned at the opening. The pin moves back and forth within the void. The pin moves between a retracted position from within the void and an extended position. A receptacle is also positioned on the structure and oriented at an angle to the opening. The pin head is able to magnetically connect with a second receptacle from a second self-locking mechanism. The pin head or the receptacle, or both, include a magnet.
