Hi,

This is an old sliding door and the locking system is no longer working. It appears it's missing some internal parts.

Would you have this replacement locking assembly?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Hello,

Unfortunately, we do not carry replacement parts for the patio door hardware shown in your photos. I'm sorry that we won't be able to assist with this repair but please let us know if you have any other hardware questions. Thanks for posting.

Hi Casey,

Thanks for your quick response. Do you have a retrofit/universal locking assembly that I can mount to this existing door. I'm handy and not afraid to drill new holes in this door and frame if there is solution that might work. I thought I saw something on your site the other day but can't seem to identify the part at this time. Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Chris

The only option would be to see if you could install the 82-005 surface-mounted handle set above or below the original hardware. You'd need to ensure that you have space to install the keeper on the door jamb and make new installation holes for the handle set as shown in the video below. We can't make any guarantees but take a look and see what you think.
