Hello,
We would like to purchase the correct locking doir handle and replacement insulation for our 1977 sliding glass door.
Thank you for any help. We're so happy we found your site.

Good morning, Lisa. I hope we can help. Now, it's a little hard to tell exactly what you have based on these images, but I would start with our 82-005. Carefully compare this to your own hardware and let me know how they match up.

Hi again,
Here is another photo showing the interior view of the door and handle.

The handles each attach to the sides and do not wrap over any of the end as the suggested handle does.

Does this help with determining a retrofit?

Thank you so much for this help.

Thank you! These pictures are a big help. Now that I can see the inside of the handle, I think you might want to consider our 82-033 instead. You may also want to look at our 82-223 inside mortise lock.

Can you also indicate what insulation we need for these doors? All the insulating strips were pulled off and wind comes between the sliding door and the stationary door....brrrr.
Thanks,
Lisa

Thanks, Lisa. It's hard to say without seeing what weatherstripping you had installed originally. You could possibly consider one of our wool pile types. Browse through that section and see if anything there will fit in your existing groove.

I've been told that is a Marshall door. I had good results with 1/4" X 0.200 pile weatherstripping.
58-158 should work. You may want professional help with that. It has one or two (it's been a while)in the interlock and the header, and one in the jamb. Those can be quite a bit of work.
You will want to remove the track insert at the bottom and replace the pile in that also. That's the easy one.

Hi, just to clarify your suggestion...the 82-033 handle and the 82-223 lock go together to make up the "locking door handle" unit??

thanks.

Yes. The 82-033 is the inside and outside pull, while the 82-233 is the inside mortise lock.
