Good afternoon,
I am in the process of selling my house in Columbia, MD. We have had an inspection and we need to replace the lock on our sliding glass door. The lock does not have a keep and I believe the latch itself is broken as well. We have been having issues finding the replacement lock. The house was built 24 years ago. We have ordered two from Home Depot and neither wound up working. Rather than having to replace the entire door the guy at the hardware section suggested that we reach out to you guys to see if you can give us the correct parts. It would be a tremendous help and save us a lot of money. I have sent pictures of the lock and the door. I thank you so much in advance.
I look forward to speaking with you guys soon!
Rebecca

Hello, Rebecca! You definitely don't have to replace the door. In fact, I think our 82-055K Handle set is exactly what you want. I would just double check to confirm that the hole spacing is the same. Measuring from center-to-center, the hole spacing is 3-1/2" on our 82-055K. Let me know what you think! |

Thank you! Yes, I was referring to the installation holes. Sorry for the confusion. I would double check the 4" hole spacing to be sure it isn't 3-15/16" instead. That is more common. If it is, then I think our 82-003 is a good match. The only catch is that we don't have a keyed version, exclusively. You'd have to purchase our 82-306 separately and use that as the outside handle. Alternatively, assuming your current key lock and outside handle aren't damaged, you could just reuse them. |
