Hello,

I would recommend starting by comparing the dimensions shown on the 26-243 and 26-244 product pages to your original tilt latches. If you notice and discrepancies, please write out your exact dimensions and we can go from there. Thank you!

The exact dimensions appear to be 2 5/16" x 15/32".

The length and width that you've provided are quite small for this type of latch. Could you confirm that you're measuring as shown below? If so, please show us an undamaged latch with an intact locking tooth removed from the window sash, including the bottom portion, to help us get a better idea of what you have.
