Hoping to replace entire door handle, lock, and perhaps keeper

Question

Hi there! I determined the door handle holes are 3 & 15/16" apart. I ordered Part #82-261 in hopes to replace my sliding door handle and lock mechanism. I unpacked everything and began to put things together while looking up directions, before actually disassembling the existing handle assembly on my door. I found this article (https://www.swisco.com/discussions/82-261--77-78654) and realised this kit will not work with my door. I saw the recommended parts in the Swisco Expert's response, but am also looking to replace the lock itself, as the current lock does not seem to reach out far enough to latch onto the Keeper anymore. I may also need to replace the keeper (your recommendation would be helpful, photo of the keeper included). What parts can you recommend so I can successfully make the sliding door lockable with a key mechanism, replace both handles, replace the lock itself, and possibly replace the Keeper? I hope this makes sense. Also, should I go ahead and begin the Return process for my current items? Thank you, and Happy New Year.

Thanks for reaching out to us. Your handle set appears to match our 82-035. This is compatible with the 82-315 key lock, as shown in the video below.

As for the mortise lock, I would recommend the 82-218, but replacement may not be necessary. You can adjust the hook to reach out further (or retract further into the door) by turning the small screw directly above it. Try that first before you buy anything just to be sure.

Finally, for the keeper, see our 89-021D.
