We recently had a 5 foot Summit patio door and screen installed by a somewhat less than scrupulous contractor. He lost the locking screen door hardware that attaches to the frame. It appears all the locking hardware for the screen itself is here. Is it possible to purchase the part for the frame or all the locking hardware for the screen? It's just the screen parts we need.
Thank you.

That is very unfortunate, I'm sorry to hear that you've run into this issue. I'm sure you wouldn't be shocked to hear that "my contractor threw out my parts" is something I hear multiple times a day. If I marked it on a board, I'd run out of chalk in a week.
The bad news is that without the original parts, I'm not sure how well we will be able to assist you. We really do rely on the old hardware as a point of reference. I will try my best, of course, but I just wanted to mention that now so that I don't get your hopes up.
To start, can you show me a photo of the spot on the door where this locking hardware installed? Can you also show me any other remaining pieces that interacted with this locking set, if any still exist? Even just one related piece may be the clue I need to track down the right parts.
