Surface mount aluminum sliding door latch

Question

I do not see any names, but there is a "w" or "m" marking as the manufacturer's symbol as seen on the lever for the latch in the first photo.

My first question is if you know what the manufacturer's name is/was? These are most likely installed in 1960.

The second question is if there would be any replacement parts? I need the hook part for the latch on 4 of these doors. I do understand you have a generic latch kit but am wondering if there are "original" parts available.

Thanks for reaching out to us. I'm afraid we don't know who manufactured the hardware shown here. We don't have an exact match for this but the 82-005 surface mount handle set is the best we can offer though we can't make any promises. The installation hole center spacing is 4-15/16" so it may require drilling new holes. Just be very careful as you don't want to break the glass.

Please note that you'd also need to have enough room to install the included keeper to the jamb.
