Do you just need a key cylinder? If so, check out our 82-310. I think this could work for you.

Hi, my reference number is D67256. Based on your suggestion I ordered an exterior lock (82-310) for my door, but the lock is not working. The key doesn't move inside the lock to open or close it. You already have the pictures of my handle, I was wondering if you can send me the whole handle with exterior lock installed on it,or maybe some other suggestions.

Check to see if you cut the key cylinder tail too short. Also make sure the exterior handle with the key cylinder is lining up with the mortise latch and inside lever. If you haven't taken a look at the video on installing key lock in patio take a look that might help answer your questions.

You will have to mount the outside handle off center. The tail piece of the lock must line up with the inside lever. I could be wrong, but I think your current handle probably has the correct holes to line up this way. If it has holes close to 2-1/2" apart, it should work.
Your picture shows the outside handle backwards.
It should have the open space for fingers facing the lock jamb.
