System for fixation of native leaflets of a heart valve including an implantable fixation device including a center portion defining a longitudinal axis. The implantable fixation device further includes a first distal assembly having a first distal strut pivotally-coupled with the center portion and a first distal element pivotally-coupled with the first distal strut. The first distal assembly is configured to move between a closed position and an extended position. The implantable fixation device further includes a second distal assembly having a second distal strut pivotally-coupled with the center portion and a second distal element pivotally-coupled with the second distal strut. The second distal assembly is configured to move between a closed position and an extended position. The implantable fixation device further includes a locking mechanism configured to lock the first distal assembly and second distal assembly in a selected locked position between the closed position and the extended position.
