Broken Sliding Glass Door Handle

Question

My door handle broke on my sliding glass door. The handle is a DorWal with a #L120 located on the inside of the handle. The holes connecting the sides are 3.5" apart.

I already ordered (1) 82-055K : Keyed Handle Set, Acorn......which turned out to be a close fit but not quite it. The internal locking mechnisim wouldn't close and latch onto the door frame. Also, the lock pin was too long and therefore i couldn't connect both sides of the handle.

Please advise as to which handle will work.

Sincerely,
Help Needed

Ah, I've heard of this problem before. Your door has an odd thickness, however if you re-use your old inside latch it may work. Give it a shot and see how it works.
