Hello
We have white vinyl windows, from Patriot Manufacturing ca. 2006/2007. They have the pictured latch built in to allow leaving window open at night, but prevent it from being opened all the way.

Do you carry a replacement for them? The dimensions are 1" long by 1/4" width.

Thanks and regards

Hello,

Unfortunately, we don't carry an exact replacement for your vent latch but take a look and see if the specifications of the 26-338 might work for you. We'll include the dimensions from our product page below. Thank you!

Thanks. I see the width of our inside clip opening is less than 5/32", it looks closer to 3/32". Is there another version of this clip for narrow clip opening?

Unfortunately, we do not carry a closer option for your vent latch with a 3/32" width. If you decide to give our latch a try and run into a problem with the size, our return policy can be found here.

Vent latches and sash stops like the 26-338 insert inside of a premade cutout in the sash frame. Take a look at the video below that shows the general installation process for these parts. Thanks for posting.
