Thanks for posting! I don't think this is like the 26-345; that's an internal latch, and it looks like you have a surface mounted tilt latch. Please look through that section and see if you can find anything that matches your own hardware.

If you aren't sure, please give me the distance between the installation holes, center-to-center, as well as the width of the latch. This will get us started on finding a new replacement for you!

the distance between the installation screws center to center is 2 and 5/16
and the width of the latch is 1 and 1/8

Thanks for getting back to us. Can you confirm that the width is 1-1/8"? I can't find any latches that have a 2-5/16" screw hole distance with a 1-1/8" width.

However, please look at our 26-188 Black Metal neutral Tilt latch. It seems very similar to your own hardware. Do you think that this might work? Please let me know!

I remeasured and it is 1 and 3/16 It has the number P52 on the piece that slides back and forth

Ah, I see. That certainly seems a lot closer to our 26-188 than it did before! Do you think it will work?
