We don't sell this exact lock but we may still be able to get you what you need. Before I recommend anything, can you first tell me the distance between the two installation holes, center-to-center?

Thank you. This latch is in the home of an elderly friend who lives some miles from me. It will take ma a couple of weeks to get back to her home again. I will take the requested measurement and get back to you as soon as I am able. Thank you for your help!

That's no problem at all, I totally understand. I'll be here whenever you need me.

Tom, the mounting screws in this latch are 2-1/16" apart, center-to-center. I appreciate your help with this.

Thanks! So, we don't have an exact match for this lock with a 2-1/16" hole spacing, but we do sell two products that are similar: the 90-161 and 90-278. The only difference between these is the offset of the holes; that is to say, the distance between the holes and the back, glass-facing edge of the lock. This measurement is 7/8" for the 90-161 and 11/16" for the 90-278

You can see more comprehensive measurements on their respective store pages, which I highly recommend reviewing before you place an order.

Tom, this is a tremendous help! I will need the version with the 11/16" edge set-back..

I am going to your site now to order a pair for the window in need. I really appreciate your help with this! ~james
