HI, I HAVE BEEN THROUGH MOST/ALL OF YOUR SURFACE MOUNTS AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ANY OF THE SCREW HOLES WILL ALLOW ME TO ATTACH TO THIS WINDOW. CAN YOU FIND ANY LATCHES THAT WOULD FIT PLEASE AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE,

Hello,

We may be able to help but we can't be sure of what you need without seeing the original tilt latch. Is there an intact part on the other side of the sash or from an identical window that you could show us? Thank you!

Hi Casey,

Attached is the type of original latch. The original sent picture has the dimension of the opening. Will this info help to identify a replacement?

If not, I will have to go back to the property.

Thank you,
Heidi

We carry a few tilt latches that are similar to the one shown in your diagram but they are not designed to install in the enclosed cutout shown in your original photo. The 26-408 top tilt latches come to mind but we can't make any guarantees without seeing an original latch. Review the specifications and installation video below to see if this might work for your vinyl window.
