Having trouble finding a replacement door handle for our 2 inch sliding glass door

We have had no luck finding a replacement door handle for our 2 inch thick sliding glass door. Do we need to just buy one that fits a smaller thickness and try to find longer screws? We have hit a dead end everywhere we have checked. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Hi

Thanks for the great pictures. Yes if you can find a handle that fits you might need to buy longer screws and cut them to length to make them fit. When I am replacing handles I often have to do that.

The reason your door has 4 holes for the handle is that it is designed to be universal right hand or left hand locking.

Only 2 of the 4 holes are used for the handle. Usually the hole spacing is 3-15/16 inches. If you cant find anything in the stores just contact me and I can get you one
