I have attached 3 photos: one each of the numbers from the window frame, the locking item on screen ( which I NEED), and picture of the screen itself.

Hey there! Thanks so much for your inquiry. Check out our 70-211 and let us know what you think.

Hi!
The locks you listed (70-211) kinda do look like the locks I'm looking to replace.
Do these locks come apart for easy installation? Do they snap together when installed?
How would I go about ordering some of these locks?
Thank you for your quick reply!

I found that prying up the side cut out made it easier to install the inside part of the 70-211. After you have the part installed into the screen frame, use a set of pliers to straighten the frame back. Line up the locking part in the correct position and snap the pieces together. I find that it's not that hard to install, it's just a little tricky getting the internal part into the frame. There's no secret to that, I'm afraid, just takes a little patience.
