Looking for a few of these, and the prices on ebay are crazy high:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-Truth-Fork-Casement-Window-Lock-Multi-Point-Locking-Handle-Dark-Beige-Unused/223225278817
Do you know what the actual part number is, and whether there are new items that may be able to work in its place?
I believe these are Milguard vinyl windows made sometime around 1998.
What part number? What else will work?

Thanks for posting. This locking handle is no longer made, but I believe one of ours can be used as a replacement. See our 38-139. Now keep in mind that the dimensions provided in the ebay link are not the same measurements we look for with these kind of locks. For instance, in that link the fork is measured only to the bottom of the lower lip, whereas we measure from the fork to the upper lip. However, I believe that the 38-139 looks should match. Compare the dimensions we listed on our product page with our old part, and let us know what you think.

Thank you for your quick response. I will look at the dimensions. Unfortunately, I need it in beige so this will stick out like a sore thumb. But at least my windows may latch.

Oh duh....I guess if these are metal, I can just paint them to match. The dimensions do match. Thank you.

My pleasure. Yes, unfortunately we do not carry in beige, but certainly painting them yourself is possible. If you need anything else from us don't hesitate to ask.
