replacement locking handle for screen door.

my research has told me that Guardian made the glass and Philips made the doors. I've learned that Philips is out of business now. The latch holes are 3 1/4 inch apart on center on the flat handle (outside) and on the inside latch that butts up inside the door frame the holes are 3 5/8 on center. It didn't want to come out - I think it was spring loaded and hopefully I can get one in to replace it.

I'm enclosing a picture of the actual handle and another of an identical handle on another screen.

Thanks for posting. Please take a look at our 83-002 screen door latch and pull. Do you think this might work? If you aren't sure, I recommend that you look through our Patio Sliding Screen Door Replacement Handles Catalog to see if you see anything else that would.

I don't think so because part g needs to screw into the inside of the frame of the door - per my photo. The frame is 1/2 deep right there and it needs to be secured from the inside of the frame. I have looked in the catalog and haven't seen one there which is why I contacted you :(

Have you seen the 84-223, sliding screen door latch set? Please take a look and let me know what you think.

I saw that one on the website but the part that goes on the outside (the non-locking side) is almost flat(see additional pictures) - distance between center of holes is 3.25.

The inside piece that mounts on the inside and is screwed to the inside of the frame - like the 84-223 but it is 3 5/8 to center of holes and it is 1/2 inch wide on the flange that mounts to the inside rim of the frame.

I pretty much looked over the 3 or 5 pages on the internet and didn't find anything - is that all you have? The door was manufactured by Phillips if that helps

Thank you for your patience in this matter. Unfortunately, the 84-223 appears to be the closest possible match we have. I apologize for the inconvenience.
