K&K window (crank and sleeve behind lock lever)

I would like help with replacing the pictured crank handle with a smaller profile T-handle ( I need 3) so vertical blinds don't stack on top of current crank handle when lowered. I don't know spline size.

Also, the sleeve that goes behind the locking latch, several windows are missing these.

I had windows like this at home, and I also ran into problems with blinds. What I did was to use the 39-205 fold down handle. We do have the T type handle, like the 39-102, if you prefer that style. Also look at the replacement cover with folding handle, the 39-107FK. As for that lock, look at the 38-208 to see if it matches up to yours.

Dave,
I was asking about "T handles" handles in Home Depot and a customer overheard me, said to look up "Swiss Co."

39-107FK with folding handle looks good.
As for escutcheon, I'll look at again to determine if it will work.

Thanks!
Steve
