I have plastic window screens, made by Vinyl-tech, where the locking pin has broken off. Do you sell replacement parts/assembly as shown in the picture? Also, do you have instructions on how to replace the assembly as well? I tried to upload jip picture, but it would not let me. Can you send me an email, which I can respond with attaching the picture?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott. These old storm latches aren't made anymore, and thus exact matches are hard to come by. You can view our selection of Storm Window Latches & Springs here. The only thing you really can do is compare the dimensions and specifications of each latch with your old hardware to see what matches best. For removal and replacement details, see the video below.
