Sliding glass door lock

Handy Person from Jacksonville, FL
My wife manages rental properties and in one of the units the sliding glass doors is missing the lock and lever. It is a Mortise lock system. She bought one replacement and it didn't fit. I tried a second replacement and it didn't fit either. The drill holes are at 3 & 11/16 inch. The ones that I have tried for the part of the lock that actually goes in the whole in the door were 3 & 3/16" and 3 & 1/8" both are to big to fit the rounded hole. I have not been able to find a smaller size. The only stickers on the door seem to indicate the type of door when I google it. SGD-R-72x80. Any idea what part I need?

Hello there!

Thank you for reaching out to us. I'm afraid I don't know what part you may need from this description. Can you show us some photos of the handle set and mortise lock? That's the best way for us to help.

Thanks for getting back to me! Our 82-218 mortise lock and 82-030 handle set with 3-15/16" installation hole center spacing are my picks. Carefully review the specifications for these parts and see how they compare with yours.
