Prime-Line E 2014 Mortise Lock - Adjustable, Spring-Loaded Hook Latch Projection for Sliding Patio Doors Constructed of Wood, Aluminum and Vinyl, 3-11/16”, 45 Degree Keyway, Round Face

While replacing a lock set on my niece's sliding glass patio door I pulled the actual "lock" out of the door for inspection and cleaning. The original door handle literally failed by fracturing at the base of the handle and folding completely back on itself. Upon inspection the "lock" portion of the lock set was found to be in very good condition and did not need replacing, so why did I order this lock? The slider on my niece's home has a vinyl frame, and that frame is hollow so the lock, while being a "mortise" type did not fit into a mortise pocket; rather, it fits into the "hollow" of the frame and is held in place by the two screws of the handles (inner and outer). Unfortunately, as I was attempting to re-insert the lock into the mortise opening and fit the handle and screws in place, the lock slipped down and actually fell all the way to the bottom of the internal hollow of the door. Despite being only about 30 inches or so below the mortise opening and trying every idea I could think of to retrieve it, that lock was no longer available to be put back into use. It was gone for good! Fortunately for us there are a number of sources that can supply replacements. We ordered a new one from Prime-Line through Amazon. The price was very good, and the lock itself is an exact duplicate of the door's original lock (except for some stamped numbers that the original manufacturer had placed on it). It fit the new replacement lock set handle that we had picked out (also from Prime-Line) perfectly and it works great. I did need to file down the door's mortise opening on one side just a bit, but this is a normal thing as parts produced years-apart are always going to have some minor differences in how they fit. This was an excellent choice to use in finishing my niece's door "upgrade!"

I had a Jeldwin double latching patio sliding door lock that stopped working . Found this lock that was a perfect mortised lock replacement. Watch a video on YouTube on how to install and it’s very simple to replace. Took about 15 minutes.

La verdad habia estado buscando este cerrojo por buen tiempo para la puerta corrediza de casa y no lo habia podido encontrar en muchas tiendas fisicas, no me imagine encontrarlo en Amazon y se ajusta perfectamente.

i ordered this after ordering something else earlier in the day and it was on my door step the next day! Great Service and worked great!

Ordered to replace the slider lock on a very old aluminum slider. Took less than 10 minutes to install and worked and fit perfectly.
