Thanks for reaching out! I believe your tilt latches are our 26-243 and 26-244. To confirm that these are the correct replacement, you'll need to remove the latches and compare the measurements shown on the diagram below. If the dimensions are not a match, please let me know the written measurements from your existing latches.

Jasmine,
I received the measurements that you sent. From looking at the picture you sent the left side and I need the right side.
So here is the question, so I need to take it all out to see the measurements underneath? or can I just measure the top?

Reason I ask is because missing piece is on the right side and it is not these, so I would have to take out left side in order to see measurements at the bottom. as when they broke into the house i popped out.

Please let me know.

I'm sorry to hear that your home was broken into. That's awful!

In regard to the latch you are looking to replace. Since you are looking for the opposite side, you would just need to purchase the 26-244 mentioned. This part will measure the same as the dimensions shown above. The only difference is that it is made for the opposite side of the window.

With that said, to confirm that they will be a fit, it would be best to remove the part and confirm all of the measurements. While the top might measure the same that does not mean the other measurements will.

As stated, if they are not a match I'll need to know your exact dimensions, typed out, to search for the best replacement solution.

I hope this helps!
