The metal profile includes a main portion and an integral engaging member connected as a single body, or as one piece, to at least one end of the main portion, wherein said integral engaging member includes a plate-like portion and an engaging tongue or fin connected as one piece to the plate-like portion, wherein said engaging tongue or fin is detached or separated from said plate-like portion on at least two sides of the engaging tongue so as to define a cut profile shaped like a “7”. The engaging tongue or fin is displaceable by means of elastic deformation between a first position in which the engaging tongue is located protruding from a plane of the plate-like portion, and a second position in which said engaging tongue is displaced towards the plane of the plate-like portion.
