Latch assembly for window

A home owner from Lincoln California says:

The crank arm broke off the latch, so I cannot open the window.
Included pics of the broken latch, and an intact latch from another window for comparison.

It is a Milguard product, but I cannot find any numbers on it.

We are second owners of the home, so I have no documentation on the windows.

Hello,

We may be able to help but I'd like to see a photo of your lock removed from the window and the keeper it latches onto to confirm a replacement. Thank you!

I am not able to remove the latch; plus I would have a hard time locking the window. I took another photo of the latch from the inside and one showing the locking mechanism on the outside.
I know it is a Milgard product and probably installed about 4 or 5 years ago.
There are four windows and I would likely replace all four so they match.
Measures 4 1/2 Inches.

Thanks! This looks similar in design to our 38-095 and 38-096. You will need to carefully review the dimensions we show for these parts to determine the better match, especially the projection of the fork. That's a very important detail and you may not be able to accurately measure it without removing it ahead of time.

Okay, removed the latch and have some basic dimensions. Looking at the dimensions it looks like the 38-0895 is closer to what I need than the 38-2896.

I've been told to just order one of each to be sure.
Good idea or not?

It's a bit tough to tell from these photos, but sure; you could always purchase both, then return the one that doesn't work. See our Return Policy here.
