Inside latch has broken on my handle set

Hello,

Your handle looks like our 82-086 but if you only need the thumb latch, you can use our 82-107 latch lever kit. 

As for your mortise lock, we will need to see a photo of it to identify the correct replacement, which, unfortunately, will require opening the door.

Hello,
The inside latch has broken on the inside of one side.
This is a mortise lock and handle set. Which I believe will
require a complete replacement.
I'm afraid to open the door as it is "locked" and
would be not good if it will not lock again.
Seeing no brand on the slider... there may be information between the door if opened but like mentioned, afraid to open the door.
Would you have a suggestion on what item you have as replacement???
Thank you so much!!!

Okay, the door has been opened.
There is no label but here is the picture of the lock.
Do you have a complete replacement? Handle, latch and mortise lock?
Thank you for your help!!!

Hello! I am confident that our 82-218 can replace your mortise lock. These are sold separately from the handle set itself. Like Casey said, your handle set is a match for our 82-086, but you can probably just use the 82-107 thumb latch to repair what you have now.

Tom, thank you for getting back with me.
Apologies in advance for the silly question I'm about to ask....
It seems that the mortise lock has issues along with the broken thumb latch.
Will my EXISTING handles work with both your replacement mortise lock and latch? I would like to make sure everything is purchased all at the same time.
From what you mentioned these are the items needed
Mortise lock - 82-218
and latch lever 82-107

and you mentioned the keyed handle 82-086 ------ is this a complete replacement?? handles, thumb latch and the mortise keyed lock???

Thank you and sorry for any confusion- I'm new at this stuff!

Hello! Don't worry, that's not a silly question at all. These are all reasonable concerns.

I am confident that both the 82-107 latch and 82-218 mortise lock are compatible with your existing handle set. In fact, I believe the 82-107 was specifically designed for exactly what you have now. I also know that the 82-107 and 82-218 mortise are compatible just from personal experience, so there's no problem there.

But if you had any doubts, the 82-086 is an alternative that puts all doubts to rest. It comes with its own thumb lever, key lock, and handle pair, though it does not come with a mortise. That's still sold separately. Otherwise, it will totally replace your existing handle set.

I am still confident that you can get away with just the 82-107 latch and 82-218 mortise. The two videos below may also be of some help to you.
