One is broken and the picture shown is the good one. There is no identification info found anywhere either for the latch or for the door/window. Seems for this latch the left hand and right hand are the same. Please help. Thank you.

Storm window latches like this are becoming harder and harder to come by these days. You could start by looking at our 91-022 and 91-023, but it will depend entirely on size. Look over the dimensions we show for these products and let me know if yours differ in any way, and exactly how.

Thanks a lot for reply. You are right that the major problem is size. The length of 91-022/91-023 is about 1/2 inch shorter than the one I have. Will it be ok?

Overall length isn't super important, since you basically have the whole run of the track to work with. The other dimensions like height and thickness, and even placement of the front tab, will make more of an impact.

I'll check it out carefully. Thank you again.
