A device locks and unlocks a first hardware component and a second hardware component relative to each other, particularly for a motor vehicle seat. The first hardware component and the second hardware component form a housing having an interior and are disposed on a common axis. At least one latching device is disposed in a first plane perpendicular to the axis and at least one second latching device is disposed in a second plane also perpendicular to the axis and displaced along the axis relative to the first plane. The first latching device comprises a first latch and first retaining cam and the second latching device comprises a second latch and a second retaining cam.
