looking for a specific strike or latch plate for a slider. this type has a point that presses a button on the latch(part in door) if it doesn't engage the button the latch wont operate. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for reaching out to us! We'd be happy to help but we'll need more information to help with our search. Can you upload some photos of the part you're looking to replace? It may also be helpful if we could see a photo of the mortise lock.

the mortise latch has a button that the point in picture engages (look where tape/paper is)

Thank you! This appears to be an Andersen brand keeper for a sliding patio door. Andersen doesn't provide this keeper separately, unfortunately, and we're only able to supply it in the 82-037 kit, which also includes the mortise. That said it may be a good idea to replace the mortise at the same time anyway, just to ensure that everything is compatible.
