Door handle and lock

Question

The handle on our patio door came off. I think it's an old castle door from 2011. It looks like part 82-086 might work. My question is what to do about the locking mechanism. The lock on that part is offset but mine is centered. Is there a locking mechanism that I should replace? Is there a different handle I should look at that will work with my existing locking mechanism? I think I can slightly adjust the catch lower and maybe at a previous time it was lower based on the wear on the catch. Thanks!

Thanks for posting. I agree that the 82-086 Handle Set looks like our best match, since the thumb lever and key lock are offset towards the bottom of the handles. I am not sure what you mean by the mortise lock being an issue--it looks like it is probably our 82-218 (the stainless steel version of this is the 82-243). This mortise lock can work fine with a handle set like the 82-086. As long as the original handle set had an offset key lock and thumb lever, which yours does judging from the photos, there should be no issue. Is there any other reason you think there would be a problem?
