Hello,

We'd be happy to look into this for you but we would need to see photos of your tilt latch removed from the window to compare to our inventory. In the meantime, you're welcome to look through our selection of surface-mounted tilt latches here. We'll also relate a few videos on this page to assist you. Thank you!

thank you for the help, and it's very appreciated. Will wait to see what you think best before ordering for all the windows.

Thanks for getting back to us. We can't be sure with the latch still installed but what I can see resembles the 26-243 and 26-244. The determining factor would be how the dimensions below and the style of the locking tooth compare to yours. Take a look and let us know if you have any other questions.

thank you so much. We printed out the information and will try to get a latch off. They're ready to crumble but hoping to find one window that will be ok. This is what we ordered before contacting you. If theyre not the right ones, that's ok... we're happy to have found your company and help.

It seems like you may have ordered parts from a different company since I do not recognize the codes in your invoice. I can't be sure if they will work for your repair but if you run into any trouble, we'll be happy to help you get the correct parts.

you've been so great and appreciate your help. We just received a few that we're using as samples, and going to order more for the rest of the windows: 2-5/8ths White Tilt Latch Set - 1/4" Nose Nose 3/16" Snap Style. Two o a set. It's a bit tight fitting, but able to use them. Again thank you so much!

just following up to thank you and also the person that I did an online Chat with today. We ordered the rest of the latches after receiving a few to try out. The set we chose was supposed to be right and left but somehow was two lefts, which was ok cause we were able to try it out. We wound up ordering the rest and happy that your company had this available. Many thanks, your help is truly appreciated.

We purchased ::::
