The last image - Window latch 2 - shows the shim and the keeper. The shim measures 2.5 inches long and 5/16 of an inch deep. It is width is tapered - 2/16 of an inch to 3/16 of an inch. I hope you can help me.
Thanks,

Replacement Season-All Window latch

I am trying to replace a lock for a window, which I think is a Season-All window. The lock I removed says Season-All so I assume the window is also. There is a shim (see image called Window latch 1) inside a channel on the window (see image called Window latch 3). The latch is broken and I need to replace it so that I have something to screw the keeper into.

Good afternoon, Patty. If it's just the shim you're looking for, then see our 90-058. Note that it is only 1/16" thick, however, so you may need a couple and stack them up. Let me know what you think!

Thank you for the quick response. However, the shim you suggested will not work because the holes for the screws are in the wrong location. The shim I need has to sit down into the channel (5/16th of an inch deep) with the holes on the top (3/16th of an inch) so I can screw the keeper into them.
Any other suggestions?

I'm afraid we do not have any keepers that fit those specifications exactly, but what I have done in the past is to drill out the holes on the 90-058 to meet the hole centers of the keeper. Could that work for you?
