The latch is more slanted than curved, whereas the door can lock without having to turn the handle.

Is the face of subject latch (40-049) curved where it interfaces with the striker plate?

I have a storm door that opens "in". It is in a sunroom where steps block a door opening to the outside. All the hardware that I see is for storm door that opens out. What should I be looking for?

Hi Ed,
Take a look at SWISCO product code 40-028, In-Swinging Door Handle Set.

Is there a more detail instruction on how the keeper (40-028) is installed?

Is this latch my only option?

How do you attach keeper for in-swing french (double) doors?

I'm not sure how your doors are set up. However, to install the in-swing keeper, your inactive door should be flush with the active door. If the doors are flush with each other, then you just have to line up the keeper with the locking handle. Don't forget you will have to reverse the center astragal (allows the doors to swing out).
