My sunroom door handle is broken and I can't find a replacement anywhere. I've uploaded photos of the broken hardware as well as pictures of the sunroom door.

shawnbat,

Welcome to the forums.

Find the contractor who installed the sunroom (or at least who the sunroom mfgr. is) and go to them to get a new lockset. The door is drilled for exactly that lockset and anything that you try to replace it with is not going to line up as far as the holes.

Lefty's advice is right on... they would be the first option to try. If they won't respond, this one might be pretty close:

Thanks XSleeper. I think that might work. I'm going to purchase it and see.

I installed the door handle yesterday. It was a perfect fit. Thanks again.
