This latch is used to keep the window screen from opening. It is located at the bottom of the top window. You have to remember to unlock this latch before you tilt the window for cleaning. Since I fail to remember to do this I have broken the part and anyone from the outside can now lift the screen and gain access to me home. Please help. I am have to replace 5 of these latches.
I found a part of yours that is similar. It is the ONE HOLE SWEEP LOCK 90-026. only problem is , I don't know if the hole I have is large enough for this product and the product doesn't come with the screw or the part to secure it to the window frame. It doesn't come with the securing part it advises to use the one that is already in the window and i don't have that.

Thanks for your patience during this busy season. I agree that the 90-026 is a possible option, though it's still different enough that I'm not sure if it will work. I can tell you that it uses a #8 x 5/8" pan head screw. You can pick that up at any local hardware store. |
