EMCO Storm Door Handle replacement

A handy person from Pittsburgh PA says:
I am looking for replacement handle and faceplates (or entire assembly if needed) for an old EMCO storm door. The 2 screws on the faceplate are 6 3/4" apart. I have found options that are 7 1/4" apart, but nothing that fits exactly. Do you have something that would match, or do I just need to drill a new hole with the longer dimension? I appreciate your help.

Hello there!

Thank you for reaching out to us. I'm not sure if we'll have a suitable replacement for this. Can you open the door and show us a photo of the mortise lock "face" in the door? We will do our best to assist from there.

We have the same door and lock set with handle. Can you tell me what you recommended to replace this handle and lock set?

Our 40-049 appears to be the closest option in our inventory. I recommend you look over the specifications and compare them with your old hardware to see if you think this could work for you.
