MI Windows Sliding Patio Door Handle/Lock Assembly

Home Owner from Schwenksville, PA
I have an MI Windows (Manufacturer Code MTL-2) Patio Door that is about 23 years old. It is Series 995 and Model SGD-R20-95x79.  As you can see in the pictures, the inside handle has stress cracked. I contacted MI and they do not have a replacement part anymore. They recommend that I contact Swiscco.  Do you have a replacement part for this?

Thanks for reaching out to us! The 82-030 Sliding Patio Door Handle Set should work to replace your existing set. It is not an exact match but it should work, so long as the installation hole spacing is the same. Take a look over the specifications below to confirm.

We typically see damage, like this, on patio handles when excessive force is being placed on them. This is likely due to there being dirt and/or debris in either the roller or on the track, or damaged to one or both of them. It would be a good idea to examine them to discredit that as a possible issue. 

Take a look at the video tutorials, tagged below this thread, for reference.

I ended up purchasing the part that you recommended and it was a perfect replacement for what I had. I have always had a problem with the lock assembly not locking easy and having to maniopulate it to get it to latch. After the replacement, it is even harder to lock. Do you have a replacement for the lock assembly also for the same door? Here is a picture of the lock assembly (after new handles installed). Please let me know if you need any additional information to recommend a replacement part. Thanks!

We're glad to hear the handle was a fit. This door lock reminds me of the 82-226 Mortise Lock. To confirm that this is the right replacement, carefully look over the dimensions below.
