Mfr: MCV-1 A-L-I Validator Series 030/060 Horiz Slider Sash Lock Replacement Needed

Question

I am in need of replacement sash locks for these horizontal sliding windows.  The lock itself seems to have a R/L and the catch has number 9134.  The other part of the lock has the numbers 92 58.  We tried replacing it with a slide-co 171915, but the catch on that lock was the wrong size.  Everything else about that lock fit perfectly.  We have a fixed keeper.  I have located other parts (rollers and vent stop), but can't locate replacement locks.  The window manufacturer sticker is shown, but I can't seem to find anything meaningful from that either.  We are also looking for replacement weather stripping that you can see is damaged, but first things first with the locks.  Hoping you can help.  Thank you!

Thanks for posting. Do the dimensions listed below match your old lock? If so, it's probably similar to our 90-274, save for those alignment nubs in the rear. We don't have an exact match for your face mount keeper, but either our 90-237 or 90-041 might work as substitutes. Both are compatible with the 90-274, so they might work for you as well. Please compare. You will almost certainly have to drill new holes in your sash with either of these keepers, so you should take a look at how much space you have and see which would be a better fit. If either could work, then it's simply a matter of preference. Note that if you do decide to go with either of these locks, just make sure you're careful when you drill. You don't want to cause any damage to the glass.
