Guardian sliding screen door handle replacement

Can anybody provide guidance on where to find a replacement handle for my Guardian screen door? I've been to Menards and Home Depot, but the screen door handles they sell do not fit my screen door.

I've noticed when looking online that screen door handle replacement parts are specific to the maker of the screen door. They don't have universal screen door handles that fit most screen doors.

Hi Scott;

Most of the handles sold by Lowes and Home Depot are made by a company called Ideal and generally Ideal handles fit a lot of different companies storm doors.

One exception is when you have higher end hardware like brass handle sets with deadbolts and high security locks. Papaiz for example is a company that supplies different locksets like this.

Papaiz may have a distributor in your area that sells to the public. There are probably other companies making storm door handle sets.

If you can post some pictures here of your lockset I will do what I can to determine who makes it.

I have lock cylinders which will fit Guardian doors and they are not difficult to install.

The patio door lock usually has a 1/2" diameter circle on the existing outside handle.

Sometimes this is made to be punched out, other times you need a 1/2" diameter drill to open it up.

Once thats done the lock cylinder can be installed on the inside of the handle.

If i can get pictures of your specific handle i can say if the lock cylinders i have will fit.
