The invention relates to a fitting (1) for actuating a mechanism in a door or window, which has a handle (10) that is rotatably supported in or on a stop element (20) about an axis of rotation (D), wherein the stop element (20) can be fastened to the door or window, a drive pin (40) for actuating the mechanism in the door or window, a coupling element (50) for coupling the handle (10) to the drive pin (40), and a blocking device (70), which blocks the actuation of the drive pin (40) about the axis of rotation (D) when in the blocking position (A), wherein the blocking device (70) can be moved to a releasing position (B) through an axial actuation of the handle from a first position to a second position along the axis of rotation (D). In order to ensure increased security against unauthorized actuation of the fitting or the mechanism connected to the fitting in the window or door, and to obtain a fitting that is easy to manipulate and inexpensive to produce, the handle (10) is decoupled from the drive pin (40) in the first position (I), wherein the blocking device (70) is then in the blocking position (A), and the coupling element (50) couples the handle (10) and the drive pin (40) in the second position, and keeps the blocking device (70) in the releasing position (B). When the second position is reached, the handle is coupled to the drive pin, and unlocks it for the actuation of the mechanism.
