C 1043 Diecast Non-Keyed Patio Sliding Door Handle Set for 1 In. to 1-1/8 In. Thick Sliding Glass Doors, Black (Single Pack)

I bought this along with the C 1034 door handle -- our door handle finally broke and the (vintage 1980) latch mechanism broke a long time ago. I ordered them separately because I wanted the dark finish mechanism (to match my patio door) without a keyed lock (there is a set with Handle included, in chrome). I want to tell you that this middle aged+ 'handy girl' took out the old mechanism, and installed the new one including lining up the jamb keeper and figuring out which length latch was required for my old door punch out. When it came time to affix the handle I called my husband for help as four hands are better than two at that point. No more than 30 minutes from start to finish -- one of those DIY projects that actually went without a hitch. One of the screws was a tight fit so I dry fit everything before assembly which saved a little aggravation. Nice quality material, I was pleasantly surprised!Prime-Line Products C 1043 Sliding Door Flush Handle Set, Black Diecast, 1-Pack

Fits perfectly to my balcony aluminium door. Works well. Easy to install. I had to find shorter screws, because the screws that came with the lock were for thicker doors. The key is to check your original lock measurements against the measurements posted with the photos of the lock on the product web page.

The latch/lock worked to replace the original. I like that it has a secondary lock that doesn't allow popping the main lock. This feature meets Dade County FL forced entry requirements.

It fit fine but I had to hire a handyman to do installation.The bottom lock lever is stronger than previous lock.

Broke in half before I installed it. I still was able to install it successfully because with two screws and being inserted into the door it will stay together.Firm lock and unlock!The lock and unlock safety is loose and will not work for childproof. If you don't need that feature the lock is a perfect replacement.It seems to be the only replacement if your sliding door has one like this already because of the size of the cutout in the door.Just be gentle not to bend it in half to try and straighten it. Just install if it comes bent and it will straighten as you screw it to the door.

I used it for it's intended use.

Old chrome handle of many years looked corroded and terrible. Since sliding door is dark brown (Architectural bronze), bought this black version instead. Looks so much better. I was surprised to find many versions of these handles still available. Yes it has wiggle room when installing but after two screws tightened it fits firm.

Easy to install but broke in only 2 months of use. Prime-Line refused to send me a replacement. Wasted my money.
