Part # 38-276 and 38-277

A handy person from Californa says:

I will be ordering casement window lock 38-144 with keepers. The lock is non-handed but the keepers appear to be LH and RH, but look like they might be inter-changeable. Please explain.

Hi Bob, thanks for writing in. The 38-276 and 38-277 are not interchangeable. The 38-276 is left-handed, whereas the 38-277 is right-handed. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

A handy person from Californa says:
OK. The locks will be installed on the left side windows (seen from INSIDE). So which keepers should I use?
