Need replacement locking latch

Question

My condo has a set of 1960's era Arcadia sliding glass windows, and I need to replace the latch that locks them. See attached. Do you have anything I can buy to replace this? Ideally I would like to just replace the locking pin in my pictures, but I am not opposed to buying a whole new locking mechanism if it is compatible with my windows.

This is very old fashioned hardware, unfortunately. At this time we don't sell anything exactly like this.

We may still be able to help, though. Before I recommend anything, may I see a clear picture of the mortise lock that this latch interacts with? Seeing it out of the door would be most helpful, but anything you can give me should hopefully tell me whether or not any of our more modern parts are compatible.

As long as a new handle set can work with that mortise, you should be able to get something to install. Otherwise, it'll be a long shot.
