Hi. I don't see the exact parts I need on your site. Do you have anything that will do the job of the parts pictured here? Many thanks!

Hello there!

Thanks for reaching out to us. The 15-178 and 15-188 pivot shoes come to mind. I recommend you compare our dimensions with yours to confirm the best match. If there are any discrepancies, let us know!

I'm afraid we don't sell a match for the release lever. You might want to see if you could convert to a surface mount latch depending on the space you have. Take a look at the video below that will guide you through every step of this process. You'll then need to find a tilt latch that will fit the space available; we have detailed dimensions in each case that you can use as a reference.

Hi Emily, thank you for your reply. The shoe I have is 2 1/2" x 1 1/4" x 17/32". Will the 15-178 work even though it's shorter?

Oh, and what about the "slider button"?

The width and thickness are the most important measurements so this part should still work for you.

I'm not sure what you mean by the slider button though. Can you clarify that for us?

Sorry. On top of the tilt window latch there was a plastic part to rest your finger on to release the latch. This broke off. The latch still works, but is much harder to move. The last two pics I uploaded are of this part. Thank you.

We don't sell a replacement for that part, unfortunately. The best we can offer is to see if you have the room to convert to a surface mounted latch as shown in the video above.
