Hi,
I have vinyl windows that are approximately 10 years old. Unfortunately, the company that installed them went out of business. I am unable to locate any manufacturer info on the windows themselves. The sash lock I need has the mounting screws set back further from the glass as to not interfere with the glass inserts, than the ones that I have seen. I have not been able to locate a sash lock that will fit. The keeper is a side mount. Thank you.

Hello, Scott. We may have a substitute that can work for this, but I will need detailed dimensions before I recommend anything. To start, can you tell me the distance between the two screw holes, center-to-center? Can you also tell me the distance from the window edge to the screw hole centers?
Thanks for this additional information, and sorry for the delayed response; Tom is out sick. Based on the data given here I believe that the 90-278 lock with a 2-1/16" hole spacing and an 11/16" backset should fit and engage your window keeper. It won't have the overlap flaps but that's ultimately not essential for it to function.
Paul,
Thank you for your response. I believe you are correct I have ordered one lock to test, The inline keeper is on backorder but my original one may work.
Thanks again, Scott
Paul, Tom,
Thanks for your help, you guys really are experts and are exactly correct, I ordered one and it fits perfectly in the original screws holes.
Just ordered enough to do all my windows!
Thanks again,
Scott
