70-048 not malleable enough

Thanks for your question. Our 70-048 Malta screen latch is the only latch we can offer at this time. We have known a number of customers to use our 70-204 slip-on latch as an alternative. It's installed by screwing on the bail latch to the screen. From there, you install the ball head screw to the side jamb. Lastly, flip over the bail latch to lock the screen. Let us know if this information helps you at all.
