Couldn't get mechanism out of channel without breaking piece. I'm not super mechanical anyway. It is three inches long, slot it fits in is 1/2 inch wide. Finger pull area is 5/8 inch long. It has a spring in it to pull back and forth. It has a slight angle on end where it fits into edge of window sill to lock in place. It is a white(was at one point anyway) plastic piece . Granted, storm windows are old but still do the job. More than half of parts in 12 windows in house are broken. Gets risky when a window is only being held up by one lock. If you even have a source for used ones I would be interested.
One broken latch came out in my hand. This is the one for the left side of the window. Angle that goes into sill is pointing down left. Middle photo is turned upside down showing spring action. Last shows broken piece but where spring action is. I hope you can help me. Thanx so much for your help.

Hey, Pat. I'm afraid that we don't have an exact match for this latch, but our 91-054 slide bolt pair is similar. Carefully compare our dimensions to yours and let me know what you think. |
