Vertical sliding window latch

These latches are for a vertical sliding window(not a tilt window). They are older windows and i can't find any markings on them to find out the manufacturer. These latches keep the window at whatever desired height you pull the window to while also keeping the window from falling out.

Thank you for your patience in this matter. We're having a hard time finding an exact match for this latch. Could you give me some dimensions? That might help. I'd like to know the width and height of the housing, as well as the distance between the two screw holes, center-to-center. Also, is there anything broken off of this? The angle on the back looks like it might have once been connected to something. Let me know! Thanks!

Thank you for your patience in this matter. Unfortunately, we were unable to find an exact match for this latch. The closest thing we could come up with was our 26-126, but the "tooth" is too far offset in the housing and likely will not work for you.

I recommend substituting this latch with a surface-mounted option like our 26-193 & 26-194. You would have to drill new holes, but it may be the best solution. What do you think?
