The patio glass door is made from arcadia, the door slides fine but it doesn't lock due to the missing latch that locks.

Can you show me a picture of the handle set and lock in question? From there I'll do my best to narrow this down. Thanks.

The latch is missing from the handle, it seems like a very slim latch that toggles up and down to lock patio door

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm afraid I don't believe this handle set is not made anymore. See our 82-005 Surface Mount Handle set instead. Look it over and see if you could adapt this to your door.

Is this the only item that can be used without drilling more holes?

Bob's not here today, but I will do my best to help.

Looking at your photos, I agree that we don't have anything that matches this exactly. The 82-005 is a good replacement option because it doesn't interact with any internal lock in the door. That's because it comes with its own built-in mortise.

As for drilling new holes, I don't know if that will be necessary for you or not since you didn't mention what the hole spacing for your old handle was. I can tell you that nine times out of ten you will need to drill new holes for the 82-005 handle set.
