3/4 Deep Keeper, 89-007 too shallow

A home owner from NH says:
June 10, 2019
Bought an old house, restoring the sliding doors. Replaced all door handles with 82-055 which worked great, except that the included catches are too shallow. Some of the doors have old (original) keepers that are 3/4in deep. Those work perfectly with 82-055. The other doors without a keeper do not work with 89-007 since the catching part is too shallow. Looking for a deeper version of 89-007.

Photos show old deep keeper next to newer shallow one.

Thanks.

Thank you for your patience while we looked into this. This took some digging, but I think I finally found something that may work. Please give us a little more time to confirm it's availability and I'll let you know the moment we have more information.

I have good news! We were able to find a replacement keeper that I think will work as a replacement. It has a projection of 7/8". We're going to work on adding it to our inventory now and I'll let you know as soon as it becomes available.

Wow, you guys are true detectives. Thank you. I'll take a bunch as soon as they come in.

I spent hours online and couldn't find a thing. Amazing.

Awesome! I won't lie, this one had us scratching our heads for a while, as well. We wouldn't have been able to do it without my colleague Dave, who has seen just about everything there is to see on a patio glass door.

Thank you very much for considering us for your business and please bear with us just a little longer. We'll get back to you the very moment this is in our catalog.

Alright, we finally got it in! Please see our new 89-009 keeper. I think you'll find this matches up to your original quite well.
