82-008 not latching to door keeper

Quick Learner from St Pete Beach FL
I received 5 Daryl Patio sliding door Handles, 6 5/8" (82-008) and 5 Patio Door Lock Keeper,3/4 " wide from you . While the handles fit into the door nicely, they don't latch to the door keeper - even with moving the keeper up and down. The frames are by Al-Can which I think is out-of-business. I think the problem may be that the opening in the Al-Can door is 5/8 from the edge in the horizontal plane. Perhaps the part needs the edge to be < 5/8th (just a guess). I prefer the use the parts, but need them to work. Thanks.

Hmm... is the problem that the locking tooth doesn't stick out as far? If so, you could consider our longer 82-202 "G" tooth (2 per lock). I'm not sure, but this may be a possible solution.
