Hello, thank you for posting,

Please review the 39-253LB operator that uses the 39-529 track slider. Also review the 39-451 or 39-375 handle and cover depending on style preference. 

The manufacturer (Truth Hardware) calls this operator left handed: The handing is determined by the side the hinge is on when viewed from the outside.

If you also need a new bracket, review the 39-545 or 39-546 depending on the orientation of the original. Let us know if you have any additional questions!
