Hello there. Yes, the 82-086 should work for you. The overall handle set size isn't a crucial factor; so long as the hole spacing, offset thumb lever position, and door thickness all are correct, then this should work just fine. Let us know if you have other questions.

I need to know the distance between the screw holes and latch hole.
Not sure why you wouldn't include that.

For this style of 3-15/16" handle sets, there are only two standardized positions you'll find the thumb lever: either perfectly centered between the mounting holes, or offset towards the lower hole. That offset position is universal; I've never heard of someone finding the offset style did not match their old handle set's offset position. This is why we don't include that measurement. Let me know if you have further questions.
