Hi there!

Thanks for reaching out to us. Can you write out the distance between the two installation holes, measured from center to center? That will help us confirm if we have a comparable match.

I'm afraid we don't sell a latch with that kind of hole center spacing. Can you write out the backset? That's measured from the center of the installation hole to the edge of the lock as shown below. I can't promise we'll have a suitable replacement but we'll try our best.

Thank you! Our 26-176, 26-177, and 26-320 have a 5/8" backset. However, the width for these latches is bigger than 1" so you would need to see if there's room on the sash. You'd also have to drill new installation holes. We can't promise they'll work for you but take a look at the specifications and see what you think.
