It is tough to determine what you have without the original hardware on hand to look at. I have a few tricks up my sleeve, though.

First, can you tell me the distance between the two installation holes, center-to-center? I think they might be 3-15/16". If they are, then that's a good sign that the 82-086 will work for you. We can at least know that it will mount on your door without having to drill new holes.

The second clue that will help us is the design of the mortise lock inside the door itself. If it looks anything like our 82-218 or even our 82-265, then that further solidifies our 82-086 as your best replacement option. This style mortise uses a flat, 45 degree angle slot to accept the key tail and thumb latch tail on the handle set.

If your hole spacing varies, or if your mortise is a different style, let me know and we can try to find something better.
