Hello there!

Thank you for reaching out to us. I'm afraid this latch is too damaged to ID. In order to help, we will need to see photos of an undamaged version removed from the frame.

There's a chance we may not have a match since storm window hardware is a dying breed but we will try our best.

This is a photo of a working latch. It is not damaged. The damaged set that I need to replace is on a second window. If it is possible to purchase a set similar to the one shown or more than one set that looks like it might work I would like to try that or any other suggestion that you may have. The window shown is the only protection that the room has. The room is located in a cottage over 100 miles from my home. I would like to solve the problem in one step if possible. It would be very inconvenient to take the unit apart more than once to replace the part. I appreciate any help that you may be able to supply. Thank you so much for trying.

I'm afraid I'm not sure what to recommend. It would be best to remove the latch completely from the storm lift rail and compare it to the ones we've related for you on this page. Yours looks like it has a tall top rail piece that fits into the rail of the storm sash. I'm also not sure what the end piece that locks into the storm window track looks like. Review the specifications for these parts and see what you think.
