I agree, our 82-260 looks like the best choice for your mortise lock. As for it not functioning properly, it's possible that the issue is with the thumb lever. A good way to test this is to remove the handle from the door entirely and try throwing the mortise with a screwdriver. If it still doesn't work properly, then the mortise is the issue. 

If it works fine, however, then there is something wrong with the handle set. While you have it off, look for any kind of damage that might prevent it from working properly.

Hi again..Just thinking about the door operation, the thumb lever seemed a little loose, play..when I used it. Is there a part number for the thumb lever if I need to replace it?

Thanks again..Nick

Sure, one common option is our 82-106. Now, I'm not 100% sure if this is compatible with your handle, but I think it's worth considering. It very well could be. I can at least tell you that it is compatible with the 82-260 and is used for many handles in this style, like the 82-069 or 82-035.
