Just bought a house with a homeowner-repaired screen door screen, outside handle was put on backward, and inside handle is completely broken. Can you suggest a replacement part for the inside handle?

Sure, we may be able to help. Can you confirm the distance between the handle's installation holes? Make sure to measure from the center of each hole, not the edges.

Looks to be 3 11/16" or 3 3/4" between the centers of the screw holes.

This is an odd setup. To be honest, I'm not even sure if your outside handle is the correct handle for that door. I could be wrong, but take a look at our 83-034 and see if this could work.

I'll live with what I have for now (strung electrical wire between the 2 screws to make a temporary pull) and see if I can't find out from the former owner who installed their doors.

Thanks!
