Broken patio door handle

Home Owner from Arizona USA
Good morning, I have an older patio door locking system with the interior door handle broken at the bottom. The only markings inside the lock is "Made in New Zeiland". The previous owner used an epoxy at the bottom because the screw mount broke. I need to replace the system but I'm not sure of the following:1-The model of the replacement part and 2-How to remove the system from the exterior door frame. It appears that there may be a screw in the upper and lower holes that hold the exterior handle secured to the frame but I can not see inside. Is it a true screw or allen wrench style? The lock works so I was planning on cleaning the locking system and attaching the new handles and latch lever. Can you confirm that the Mortise Style handle set 82-080 will fit (if the measurements ar the same).

Thanks for reaching out! To remove the internal locking mechanism, you'll need to remove the frame cover to access the screws. Unfortunately, I would not be able to confirm how your existing handle is installed to the door. Although, it is likely that the handle set is secured to the door using some variation of a screw. You'll need to take a look at the screw holes on the side of the handle to determine what tool you'll need to remove the existing handle set.

We can confirm that the 82-080 should be a fit for your sliding patio door handle set, so long as your measurements match up. The most important measurement you'll want to confirm is the distance between the installation holes.
