I want to replace a mortise latch that has a return spring that is not functioning. The 40-198 and 40-194 look hopeful, but I ask for your help. Will one of these models fit? What do you make that will fit?
One photo shows the door frame/ strike plate/ cutouts for deadbolt and latch. Another photo shows dimensions for this.
Three photos show the old mortise latch and its dimensions.

The storm door is Larson. The dimension between screw centerlines is actually 6 7/8", not 7".

Neither the 40-194 nor the 40-198 will work in your application. I believe the best option we have for this old Larson storm door set is our 40-049, but review its specs and see what you think.
