Would like to convert handle set to a keyed handle set for a sliding door.

Question

I have a slider that was installed in a new home about three years ago. The warranty label says its a Silverline 8002344228 Product ID 5700U. The existing handle is a mortise style lever on the inside of the door. A keyed set would allow me access from the outside when locked on the inside. The screw holes are 4 inches apart. Your product 82-081 measures 4-15/16" on centers. Is there a replacement lockset with the dimensions that will fit this door? Photos attached.

I think you should consider our 82-086 instead. This has a hole spacing of 3-15/16", which is probably what you have now. Just note that the thumb lever and key lock are both set in the bottom position and fixed there. That means they cannot be adjusted. You need to make sure that your mortise is also set in the bottom position so that everything will align.
