mortise lock

A home owner from Hollister, CA says:

I looked up this part on the internet. All measurements fit the lock in my patio door so I ordered the part.

Just received mortise lock Item # 82-269 order # 1446717. The lock is the same physical size as my original.

The problem is: the lock doesn't match up with the fixed attachments it locks to. The latch lever is in the center of the new lock and it is 3/4 inch lower on the original. Also the square latch lever hole does not fit the 3/4 inch long and 1/4 inch wide blade latch lever. Other than physical size, the lock is a complete mismatch.

The faulty mortise lock is circa 2004. Please help.

I did further research on your mortise lock product line and it looks like maybe Product Code 82-243 Mortise lock # 82-218 is what I'm looking for. Your thoughts?

I'm afraid I don't know what you need, Glenn. I would need to see a photo of your original mortise lock in order to confirm the best match from our catalog.
