Please help identify the parts I need to replace locking mechanisms for our sliding glass doors.

Dimensions look right. Where mine differs: My 4 1/2 inch component with hook has a rounded projecting spring-loaded button (in place of the white projecting cone in yours) that gets pushed in as the door closes, the result of interaction with my 5 1/2 inch receiver component's corresponding static projecting cone shape.
Maybe its possible in your product those roles are reversed and hopefully feasible. Such as: fixed cone of the 4.5 inch part, if freely inserting into the open gap seen in the 5 1/2 inch receiver part, causes the hook to engage the 5 1/2 inch part.Or - is there an available component pair that mirrors the way my existing parts interact?

Sorry, I should have clarified: you have the older version of this deadlock set. Andersen's newer version has that actuator on the mortise lock rather than the keeper, but as you surmised, it will work exactly the same way, just 'reversed'. The 82-037 is still the best match.

Thank you, Bob. I'll buy one set for one sliding door and if it works out I'll get more.
Best,

Sounds good, Savas. Let us know how you make out, or if you have further questions.
