Need replacement handle for Security Screen

A friend from Palm Springs says:
Hello and thank you. Need a new handle (hopefully with lock) for a security screen.

Photo's follow - reference those without hardware is the door that needs hardware. Photo's with hardware is identical security screen (one door) on rear of house. At some point the front handle and lock was switched with that in the rear - as the rear hardware is non functional (lock) - missing or broken spring. Otherwise would simply put rear hardware on front security door.

When the front became non functional, owner dismantled and discarded all parts.

I could find no names or markings on any of the doors or parts I could see. The security screen needing the hardware is the right door (from outside) of a double door security screen. The second door (left hand security screen) has upper and lower bolts into frame to hold securely.

I have sequenced photo's so those with hardware follow the similar photo without hardware. I hope this provides everything you need Oh, the width of the security screen is 3/4".

I am pretty handy and can retrofit a handle of similar size for a 3/4" wide security screen.

Thank you! Fred

Take a look at our 40-214 handle set and see if this matches up to yours. This could be what you're looking for. We also carry the internal mortise lock, 40-213, if that's all you need to replace.

Dave, it looks just like the one in the photo. Now our measurement has the width of the door at 3/4" and this one seems to fit a 7/8"-1". Could it be our measurement is wrong since the internal mortise lock is gone (the mortise which would likely push out the sides a bit?).
You are the expert - and I am ready to give it a go. If it perchance doesn't fit, can we return it?
Thanks. Fred

I believe this is the best match we have for the handle you show in your photos. It was used by security storm door manufacturers like what you have. The width of the 40-213 is 9/16", so the internal mortise latch should be a good fit.
