Storm door latch

A quick learner from Maryland says:

Hi,

I ordered a storm door latch from you'll last week order # 1890548 item # 40-198 and I didn't realize the latch was in a different direction so it will not close. I'm looking for the correct one to purchase. I added pictures so you can see. 

Thank you and have a good 4th!

Hello!

You can actually reverse that latch for the direction you need. All you need to do is pull it, twist it in the desired direction and push it back in. Let me know if this makes sense!
