casement multi-point slider lock handle. seems smaller than listed products.

measures 3 1/16inch (78mm) hole spacing, 4 x 3/4 inch overall body.

sliding 'tongue' is 1 5/16 inch long/deep (35mm), 15/16 (23mm) wide at tip.

opening cut in window frame is 3 3/4 x 7/16 inch, radius ends.

I'm afraid we don't have a lock that matches your specifications exactly. The closest match we have is our 38-139. This fork is 1-1/2", however, measuring from the lip of the housing to the end of the fork. If you measure your fork the same way, could it come out to the same size?

hi tom. thanks for responding.
- yes, i measured just the fork; adding on the penetrating body depth does come out close.

However, your part 38-139 shows 3 13/16 hole spacing. mine is just 3 1/16" - a full 3/4 inch shorter. i fear 38-139 will not fit in my sash opening, even if its fork is the right depth and i use the matching back plate. also, will the lever 'throw' (fork travel) be full range?
could i have grossly mis-measured (twice)?? errors are always possible, if still living ;).

i suppose i could order a set (lever, plate, screws) to try, especially if it is returnable. what is your advice?

Ah, you're right. I'm sorry for overlooking that. I'm afraid we don't have any lock in this style with that kind of hole spacing, though. I couldn't find such a lock from our sources, either.

That said, we do have a return policy if you wanted to try it out. You can see it here. However in light of your hole spacing I'm not optimistic that it will work. I'm sorry we couldn't find anything closer!
